John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
Social anxiety, in my opinion, is a completely normal reaction to a world that has become increasingly hard to navigate, interpret and understand. The last few years have been devastating for people trying to function, yet alone trying to make sense of the world around them.
I work with clients to reframe their experience into an affirming, compassionate narrative that helps them see the beauty in both themselves and their environment.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many people experience everyday social situations as draining rather than energizing, which affects everything from workplace dynamics to personal relationships. I help clients understand their social energy patterns and develop strategies that honor their natural temperament while building confidence. We focus on distinguishing between realistic social concerns and anxiety-driven thoughts, creating sustainable approaches to social connection.

Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric illnesses affecting children and adults. Approximately, 40 million American adults suffer from anxiety disorders. Sadly, about one-third of those individuals suffering from an anxiety disorder receive treatment. Increase in public awareness is essential in informing the public that anxiety disorders are highly treatable.
If you experience anxiety that is persistent, seemingly uncontrollable, and overwhelming it may be indicative of an anxiety disorder. If it is an excessive, illogical fear of everyday situations, it can be disabling. When anxiety interferes with your daily activities, you may have an anxiety disorder.
Social anxiety may seem overwhelming and are stopping you from living your life in a manner that suits you, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Gratefully, many treatments and self-help strategies for social anxiety can help you significantly decrease your anxiety symptoms, manage anxiety attacks, and reclaim your life.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When You Worry What Others Think
If you find yourself replaying conversations, worrying you said the “wrong” thing, or avoiding situations where you might be judged, you may be struggling with social anxiety. You might appear confident and put-together on the outside but inside feel tense, self-conscious, or on high alert. Even small interactions — meetings, text replies, or social plans — can feel like high-stakes performances. Social anxiety is not just shyness. It’s your brain trying to protect you from rejection or embarrassment — often by over-analyzing and keeping you stuck.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you feel calm and authentic around others. You’ll learn how to:
Identify and challenge the beliefs that drive fear of judgment
Rewire the inner dialogue that fuels self-criticism and avoidance
Build emotional tolerance for uncertainty and vulnerability
Practice real-world experiments that retrain your brain’s social safety system
Experience connection and confidence without overthinking every move
Our work blends compassion and science — using daily tools, feedback, and measurable progress to create lasting change. Most clients notice significant relief from social anxiety within 8 to 12 weeks.
I BELIEVE:
You deserve to feel safe being yourself — not performing for others.
Confidence isn’t the absence of anxiety; it’s learning to show up anyway.
Connection grows when we stop chasing perfection and start allowing authenticity.
Fear loses power when it’s met with curiosity instead of avoidance.
Laughter, empathy, and courage are the antidotes to shame.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If the fear of judgment keeps you isolated, our work is designed to help you reconnect with confidence. We’ll partner to identify and restructure the fear-based thoughts that fuel your anxiety. Using a "parts work" approach, we will gently explore the protective inner system and connect with the source of the anxiety—often a young, vulnerable, or shamed "part" that developed to keep you safe from perceived social threat. This work is gently paced and respects your need for safety as you learn to unhook from the endless cycle of rumination and choose to engage in your life according to your values.

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Social anxiety often lives in the aftermath, replaying conversations, wondering if you said the wrong thing, and feeling embarrassed by moments that others have long forgotten, or maybe that they didn't even notice. I work with clients to understand where that inner critic is coming from and build a more compassionate, grounded relationship with themselves so that being around others feels a little less like a performance and a little more like connection.

Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming—whether it's speaking up in meetings, attending social gatherings, meeting new people, or even making small talk. The fear of being judged, embarrassed, or rejected can lead to avoidance that limits your personal and professional life, leaving you feeling isolated and frustrated.
I specialize in helping clients overcome social anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the most effective evidence-based treatment for this condition. Together, we'll identify the anxious thoughts that fuel your fear—beliefs like "everyone will think I'm stupid" or "I'll embarrass myself"—and learn to challenge and reframe them with more realistic, balanced thinking. My goal is to help you engage more fully in life—to pursue opportunities, build meaningful connections, and feel comfortable being yourself in social situations. Social anxiety is highly treatable, and with the right tools and support, you can experience genuine freedom and confidence.
