Strides in Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PSY.D.
This is a persistent, high level of fear for a social or performance event. Often individuals are around unfamiliar people and perceive themselves as being criticized by others. The individual fears that they will embarrass or humiliate themselves. This could occur at a party, a presentation at work, talking on the phone, making a speech, participating in a workshop, meeting the parents of your child’s friends, or even attending church. A very common version of this, particularly for children, is school phobia. Often school phobia is complicated by bullying, fears of the parents’ safety, or learning deficits.

Fear of judgement, fear of being awkward, fear of having nothing to say, fear of losing control... These are all ways people experience social anxiety. A good therapist can help a client first achieve insight into where these fears came from, but then put in place an action plan to build confidence and safely help oneself feel more comfortable in social settings.
