Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
CBT is considered the preferred, first-line, evidence-based treatment for social anxiety. My downtown location lends itself to completing therapist-accompanied real world exposures with my clients. I believe exposure work to be at the core of effective treatment for SAD. I also provide group therapy for social anxiety, help clients develop the skills of making "small talk," and work to increase their levels of self-esteem and confidence.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LCAC, LPC, LPCC
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I offer a unique and compassionate approach to treating social anxiety through psychodynamic therapy. My practice is enriched with techniques from Gestalt therapy, mindfulness, and experiential methods, creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can deeply explore and address the root causes of their social anxiety.
Understanding that social anxiety can be debilitating and impact various aspects of life, my approach focuses on uncovering the unconscious processes that contribute to these feelings of fear and avoidance. By delving into these deeper layers, clients gain insight into the root causes of their social anxiety, whether stemming from past experiences, negative self-perceptions, or relational dynamics. This comprehensive understanding allows for more effective and lasting healing.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to genuine therapeutic connection and present-moment awareness. I emphasize the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship, where clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Through this connection, we work together to develop healthy coping mechanisms, improve social skills, and build a stronger sense of self.
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I tailor each treatment plan to the individual needs of my clients, ensuring they receive the most relevant and effective care. By integrating psychodynamic principles with experiential techniques, I help clients transform their struggles with social anxiety into opportunities for personal growth and resilience.
You will find a dedicated partner in your journey toward overcoming social anxiety. Together, we will work to alleviate your symptoms, empower you with the tools and insights needed for lasting emotional well-being, and guide you toward a future filled with confidence and fulfilling social interactions.
