Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
If you get very stressed about social situations, either before or after, you'll be spending a lot of energy and brain power on all your internal self-talk around this. Sometimes that can make you act awkwardly or not be able to be as natural and confident as you'd like to be. We can work on changing your self-talk together so that you are better able to be more in the moment and can be freer and more accepting of yourself.

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.

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.

Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Different from generalized anxiety, social anxiety has specific catalysts and situations that cause it to heighten or worsen. There are methods that make lessening and managing those feelings of discomfort and overwhelm and minimize the catalysts so that you can feel like you are making the choices in your life, instead of feeling like anxiety is making all the choices for you.

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.
