Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Anxiety has a way of shutting everything down. We were made for connection and when we can't engage in a conversation, a relationship, or a social gathering the way we want to we often begin to isolate completely to avoid the tough feelings that arise when we feel we can't connect. In our work together I will help you overcome your anxious thoughts, feelings, and negative beliefs. Together we will explore where the anxiety comes from, why the anxiety exists and how to transcend the anxious feelings.

Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can be a debilitating condition that can make it hard for individuals to fully participate in social situations. As a therapist, I understand the impact that social anxiety can have on one's life and I specialize in helping individuals manage symptoms of social anxiety to foster well-being through the use of evidence-based therapies such as prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Together, we will work to identify the triggers of your anxiety and develop effective strategies to manage them. We will explore the underlying causes of your social anxiety and use cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques to challenge negative thoughts and behaviors that are holding you back. And, using prolonged exposure therapy, we will work to desensitize you to the feared situations, ultimately leading to a reduction of symptoms.
My ultimate goal is to empower you to take control of your social anxiety and to help you build a brighter, more fulfilling future for yourself. I will provide a safe and supportive environment for you to work through your struggles and find solutions that work for you. Don't hesitate to reach out to me today, together we can work towards a better tomorrow.

Tilley Fine
Life Coach, Certified Conscious Parent Coach CPMCP™, Clinical Certification for Stress, Anxiety and Self-Regulation
I provide compassionate support to individuals who struggle with overwhelming feelings of fear and discomfort in social situations. Do you find yourself avoiding social gatherings, feeling self-conscious, or experiencing intense physical symptoms like sweating, trembling, or rapid heartbeat when interacting with others? These are common symptoms of social anxiety that can significantly impact your quality of life.
Just the other day, I was standing at Starbucks and was afraid to ask for a straw for my drink. Even after all the work I have done, sometimes my own social anxiety creeps back in. The difference is that now I have tools to get though these situations.
Drawing from my expertise as a stress and anxiety coach, I offer practical strategies and personalized guidance to help you overcome social anxiety and regain confidence in social settings. Together, we'll explore the underlying beliefs and thought patterns that contribute to your anxiety, and we'll work on developing healthier coping mechanisms and self-esteem.
