Social Anxiety
Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel high-stakes—leading to overthinking, self-consciousness, and a tendency to avoid situations that might otherwise be meaningful. In therapy, we take time to understand how these patterns developed and what keeps them going, while gently working toward greater comfort and flexibility in social settings. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts and feelings that arise in the moment, and build your capacity to stay present and engaged—so interactions feel less overwhelming and more like an opportunity for genuine connection.

A Different Lens Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LPC, ADHD-CCSP, NCC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming — worrying about how you’re perceived, replaying conversations, or avoiding social situations altogether. I help clients understand the thoughts, fears, and body responses that fuel social anxiety while developing practical skills for navigating relationships, work, and social settings with more ease. Through a mix of CBT, mindfulness, compassion-based strategies, and gentle exposure work, we build confidence step by step so you can show up more fully in your life without fear holding you back.

Social Anxiety
Rachele Epp
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, EMDR Certified Therapist™
Social anxiety can make social situations feel overwhelming, often leading to avoidance or fear of judgment. I can help you overcome this through exposure therapy, where we gradually face social situations to reduce anxiety. I use CBT, which helps challenge negative thoughts and build confidence, and EMDR, which processes past experiences that fuel anxiety. These approaches can empower you to feel more comfortable and in control in social settings.

Social Anxiety
Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Social anxiety can manifest in many ways. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, flushing of the face, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation in social and performance situations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming social anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
Many people experience social anxiety as a constant, 'hidden' soundtrack of self-criticism. I specialize in deconstructing the subconscious 'scripts' that tell you that you aren't enough or that judgment is inevitable. By integrating Dr.-level clinical insight with targeted trauma tools, we resolve the 'core negative beliefs' that fuel social avoidance and isolation. We don’t just manage your anxiety; we restore your inherent right to belong, helping you navigate everything from intimate gatherings to professional stages with genuine confidence.

Social Anxiety
Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Social anxiety can quietly shrink your world — you avoid situations, over-rehearse interactions, replay conversations afterward for everything you said wrong, and feel a loneliness that comes from being around people but never quite feeling able to be yourself. This isn't shyness or introversion; it's your nervous system treating social situations as a threat. I work with social anxiety through a combination of nervous system regulation, EMDR, and somatic techniques that help your body learn to feel safer in connection — so you can start showing up more freely, and less managed.

Long Island Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, CCTP
If the thought of walking into a room full of people, speaking up in a meeting, or making small talk leaves you feeling exposed, judged, or frozen, you are not alone. Social anxiety can make your world feel incredibly small. In our sessions, we will create a safe, paced space to challenge the harsh inner critic that tells you everyone is watching or judging. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, I will help you tame physical panic symptoms, quiet the mind-racing "what-ifs," and gradually build authentic social confidence.

Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Social anxiety affects many people throughout the world, especially the ones that grew up in unhealthy dynamics at home and who may have learned that the world is an untrustworthy and/or scary place. Social anxiety lives in the body and in the nervous system so we will use approaches that target the nervous system specifically to help unwind any material that is resting there. When the body and nervous system release this material, we very often feel better and less overwhelmed in daily life, especially in social situations.

Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Do you secretly hope your friends will cancel the plans you have made with them or spend time trying to figure out how to get out of social events because the thought of interacting with people or even walking into the even terrifies you? Social anxiety can be extremely crippling, and those of us who deal with it often struggle from loneliness and isolation even though those same social situations we crave so desperately also overwhelm us tremendously. In therapy you can learn new strategies to manage your anxiety, learn ways of creating friends AND showing up to enjoy them, and ways to create a community of people that “get” you and have space for you however you choose to show up. We can also help you learn to love ALL of the facets of your life- including the moments where you get to show up to spend time with others and the times you are alone. I find that online therapy is particularly good for social anxiety because we can work together in any place you feel safe and comfortable in and work together to help you stretch and strengthen your ability to interact socially.
