Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee and credentialed in Ireland
The root of social anxiety tends to be our beliefs about what other people will think of us or whether they are safe with others. This is different than just introverted people. Social anxiety can affect a great many areas of your life but it is something that can be treated and open up your world.

LAH Therapy Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., LMFT, CAS, EMDR-2
Social anxiety can be holding a client back from pursuing their life. I work with them to identify their issues and begin to get comfortable, little by little to address these issues. It takes time but the work pays off when a client can make the kind of change that can enhance their life.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in social anxiety, my approach to treatment is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and social skills training, I work collaboratively with individuals to address underlying fears and negative thought patterns related to social situations. By gradually exposing clients to feared social scenarios in a supportive environment, we work together to challenge avoidance behaviors and develop effective coping strategies. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-compassion, assertiveness training, and relaxation techniques to manage anxiety symptoms. My goal is to empower individuals to overcome social anxiety, build confidence in social interactions, and cultivate meaningful connections with others.
