Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I have extensive training and experience with behavior modification related to avoidance based fear/anxiety behaviors and habits. I have helped people effectively approach their fears and anxiety with the goal of improved functioning and quality of life.
The guidance that I'll provide you with helps build up the skills you need in your day-to-day life when making small and major decisions. I can help you achieve a better life balance. Learning when to pause and enjoy the moment, rather than stressing about what you did or didn’t do, or where you need to be or what you need to do next. People often have the tendency to let their past, patterns, or habits determine their present and future. I can help you find a way to roll with the waves of life in a more manageable way. There are unpredictable storms along the way, and I can provide the skills and tools for managing through the storms. I can help you find a new way to move forward in life rather than trying to anchor down in the storm. I can help you recognize that the tides tend to change, and you can find your way to calmer waters. I would love to help you find the right path forward for you on your journey.
I believe that nothing in life is truly just a mistake unless you learn nothing from it. Many of us learn things the best the hard way. These life lessons and experiences are where true wisdom can come from . I find that being straight forward with people in a kind, caring manner can lead to gains quicker. I don't judge people for choices made in the past, as our past helps us learn to grow and develop into what we hope to be. The potential for change is one of the greatest human abilities. When someone desires to change and decides to do it for themselves, then growth is always possible. Having a great therapist can be the missing key as to why change has been so hard in the past. Over my 15 years as a therapist, I learned that helping others be more intentional about life can be a game changer. If you are doubtful about your own change, I can be your confidence and I am always up for a challenge.

Dr. Sam Macy
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety can limit us personally and professionally, making life smaller and less-realized. I use an integrative therapeutic approach to help people feel more confident in social interactions, and more willing to take "good risks" towards a more expanded and empowered life.

Daniel Snow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Please also see the description under 'anxiety or fears'. Social anxiety can hamper the trajectory of life- not meeting people you could have met, not having friends that could have been there for you, and reinforcing anxiety in all its forms while increasing isolation. It is tied to self-judgment, fear of embarrassment, endless 'playbacks' of conversations in the mind, and memories of other situations. But like anxiety in general, it is something that can be overcome. Sometimes we find that what we think of as scary to the point of being unapproachable is much more tame and harmless than we expected, once we get a closer look at the thing we fear.

Do you constantly second-guess how you come across? Avoid social situations, even with people you care about? Social anxiety isn’t just shyness — it can hijack your confidence and isolate you. I use EMDR and other evidence-based approaches to help you reduce the fear, shift the self-talk, and show up as yourself — without the panic.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
With social anxiety we will work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions as well as positive self talk, behavioral activation, probability estimation, pros and cons of being social, social skills & social cues, and behavioral activation (taking action). Often times we make something seem scarier in our own mind than it actually is. With anxiety one of the best ways to overcome it is simply to engage in the activity that scares you. I will help you to stop your negative thinking, to learn relaxation techniques and coping skills and then encourage you to face your fears and gain practice in social situations.
