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.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my approach to helping clients overcome social anxiety, I craft a nurturing space where individuals can safely tackle their fears. Integrating Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Role-Playing, and specifically, Exposure Therapy, we collaboratively develop a path to confidence and ease in social situations. This comprehensive approach is designed to gently confront and desensitize clients to the social scenarios that trigger their anxiety, enhancing coping mechanisms and fostering resilience. By also focusing on building social skills and self-awareness, our aim is to empower individuals to navigate interpersonal interactions with greater comfort and less fear. My role is to guide and support you through this transformative process, offering the insights and techniques necessary for managing social anxiety. Together, we work towards achieving a more fulfilling and engaged life, helping you to step out into the world with confidence.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety is something that impacts all of us. For many, there’s a general sense of dread or feeling of being unsafe that holds us back from life. For some, social anxiety is a significant barrier to creating connection with others. Anxiety can show up in our thoughts as well as our bodies, and it can prevent us from living the life we want. The most important thing to remember when it comes to anxiety is that most of our fearful thoughts are false. Your brain sends a compelling signal that you’re in mortal danger, but most times the stakes just aren’t that high. Learn how to challenge that signal and lead a richer, more full life.

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.
