YOU DESERVE SUPPORT FROM SOMEONE WHO CARES.
Therapy for people struggling with loneliness and isolation
At Odyssey Wellness, we understand the profound sense of loneliness and isolation that can sometimes overshadow our lives. We're here to support you in navigating these challenging emotions and finding connection and meaning.
Loneliness and isolation are experiences that many of us encounter, yet they can be particularly intense for those who feel disconnected from their surroundings or themselves.
The Weight of Loneliness
Loneliness is not merely about being physically alone; it's a deep emotional state that can persist even in the company of others. It's a signal from our psyche that something is amiss in our connections, urging us to seek out meaningful relationships and engagement.
In therapy, we can explore the roots of loneliness and how it can affect your mental health. Together, we can work towards strategies that foster genuine connections and a sense of belonging.
Isolation
Isolation, whether self-imposed or due to external circumstances, can exacerbate feelings of loneliness. It can create a cycle that's hard to break, leading to further disconnection. In therapy, we can examine the different forms of isolation and their impacts on our emotional landscape. By understanding these dynamics, we can take steps towards breaking the cycle and embracing a more connected life.
Our goal at Odyssey Wellness is to provide a supportive space where you can address these feelings of loneliness and isolation. Through compassionate guidance, we aim to help you cultivate meaningful connections and embrace a sense of community.

You will have a 15 minute discovery call with me to make sure we are compatible. We will discuss your reasons for seeking therapy, goals you may have, and what you are looking for in an effective therapist. We will also make sure we are a good fit in terms of fees and schedule availability.
Our first few sessions will be about getting to know you better, setting some goals or areas of focus, and just getting into the rhythm of our therapeutic work together. From there, some people choose to pursue short-term therapy, often focused on resolving a specific issue. Others may benefit from a longer term approach, allowing for deeper work that allows me to help you to move forward and establish strong foundations for long-term change.
