The Truth About Loneliness and Social Isolation Counseling in Knoxville

Loneliness and social isolation are incredibly painful. If you’re experiencing either of these, or both, you need to know that there is a solution: loneliness and social isolation counseling. This doesn’t have to last forever. Reach out today for help. We can get you scheduled for your first appointment right away.

The Impact of Loneliness and Social Isolation

Loneliness and social isolation are not simple inconveniences. Some people believe the impact of loneliness and social isolation is as simple as feelings of sadness. The reality can be much grimmer. Physical symptoms like aches and pains, an increased risk of depression, low energy, sleep issues, loss of or increase in appetite, substance abuse, and feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness, and thoughts of suicide are all potential consequences of loneliness.

If these symptoms seem serious, that’s because they are. While occasional loneliness or social isolation is normal, an ongoing situation can be seriously detrimental to mental and physical health. Humans are social creatures who are meant to form meaningful relationships. The level of social interaction required by each person is different; introverts will recharge by being alone, while extroverts will recharge by spending time with others. There’s an entire spectrum of “normal,” so don’t compare yourself to anyone else. If you’re feeling unhappy, seeking the advice of a counselor for loneliness or social isolation is completely valid.

The goal of counseling is to improve the quality of life for patients. If you’re struggling with loneliness or social isolation, contact Thriveworks Knoxville counselors. Our top priority is to help you live the fullest life possible.

What’s the Solution for Loneliness and Social Isolation?

It may seem that the solution to social isolation would be simple: create and / or grow relationships. The truth is not often that simple. A counselor helps patients understand the core cause of their social isolation. Is it just a matter of not living near people? Or is there a fear of intimacy? What is holding the client back from seeking out relationships?

For those experiencing loneliness, similar questions will be explored. A counselor can help their client discover what the core cause of their loneliness is. If it’s social isolation, as in the previous paragraph, that will likely be treated first. For those who have strong social ties but are still experiencing loneliness, we’ll dig a little deeper. In some cases, an underlying condition, such as depression, may be the culprit. Depression often mimics other issues, such as loneliness. Once the real problem is found and addressed, the other issues will often resolve on their own or with minimal work.

Our counselors are experienced at helping patients find the cause of their troubles and develop a plan to overcome them. Loneliness and social isolation are no different.

I like that I am given lots of materials to work with to solidify what I have learned and go back to when I forget what was talked about. I also love that I feel like my experiences or knowledge of therapy isnt a barrier because I am met where I am on skills. Im given information where i lack knowledge and we are able to move on when i already understand a skill.

Brittany Tyler is an amazing therapist that has helped me realize so many truths about myself. She pushes me outside of my comfort zone in the best way to improve my mental health. I have received so much clarity from our sessions, and I truly don't know where I would be without her support, validation, and encouragement. I would recommend her to anyone, because she is able to meet the client where they are at to provide the best results. I feel understood, and challenged in the most effective way. Her knowledge is so expansive, and as a therapist myself I have been thoroughly impressed with her technique. She is truly incredible at her job and I am thankful to be her client.
