Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Feeling overwhelmed? Stressed? Panicked? You’re not alone! My goal is to teach you how to understand what social anxiety is from a biological and psychological standpoint, how to navigate anxiety socially, and collaborate with you on how to best manage anxiety in all its forms.
I Will Help You:
Identify thoughts and scenarios that invite anxious feelings in.
Understand what anxiety is, how it can help you, and how it hurts you if you aren't careful.
Navigate social situations with a sense of calm and content.
Connect with others in a meaningful and natural way.
Gain clarity on what’s keeping you stuck, so you can make choices that are right for you.
Connect with your intuition, and learn to listen to it.
Clearly set and maintain boundaries in a way that is kind to yourself and others.
Confidently ask for what you want, and declare what you need — without feeling guilty.
Develop a strong, positive sense of self that is balanced and well-rounded.
You are too great of a person to keep all to yourself!

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalytic Candidate
Social anxiety can feel like a spotlight is constantly shining on you. Together in therapy we will work to understand why that spotlight feels so harsh or scary. By exploring past experiences and the critical voices they may have created, we can weaken their power.

Nancie Kohlenberger
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Some of us get anxious in social situations where we feel we have lost control. We tend to shy away from those situations. We can feel small and self-conscious. It is important to gain self-confidence so that social situations do not get the best of us. I utilize EMDR and EFT to support growth and a feeling of presence in these stressful situations.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to explore the stories that the world has forced them to tell themselves about social interactions and their fears. Through reflective questioning, I guide clients in re-framing their narratives, identifying strengths, gifts, and alternative perspectives and I assist them in externalizing social anxiety to help them confront it and overcome its hold.
