Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Social anxiety can feel overwhelming, impacting relationships, confidence, and the ability to participate in areas of life you care about. Symptoms may include self-doubt, reassurance seeking and rumination, feeling embarrassed, and avoiding social situations. I utilized evidence-based therapy including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods to help clients face their fears and better manage discomfort in social settings.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You might appear confident and capable to others—but inside, social situations feel exhausting, overwhelming, or filled with second-guessing. Whether it’s speaking in groups, initiating friendships, navigating dating, or networking, social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel high-stakes. You may replay conversations in your head, fear saying the wrong thing, or feel pressure to present yourself in ways that aren’t sustainable. And while avoidance might bring temporary relief, it often reinforces the shame and isolation underneath.
For neurodivergent folks—including those with ADHD or autism—social anxiety can come with an added layer of complexity. You might feel like you’re constantly monitoring your tone, facial expressions, or body language just to meet unspoken expectations. Masking can become second nature—and incredibly draining. Even when things go “fine,” you might leave social interactions feeling overstimulated, disconnected, or unsure of how you were received.
I work frequently with high-achieving professionals and emerging adults navigating the intense internal pressure to show up flawlessly in social, academic, or professional spaces—always “on,” even when it’s exhausting. In our work together, we’ll also explore how social expectations intersect with aspects of your identity—and how these pressures have shaped your sense of self and belonging.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients understand the roots of their social anxiety and develop tools to connect with others in ways that feel more authentic and sustainable. We’ll build insight, strengthen your self-trust, and practice new ways of showing up that support the kind of connection you actually want. With over 15 years of experience, I offer a compassionate space where you don’t have to perform, translate, or push through. If you're ready to unmask, exhale, and feel more at ease in your relationships, your work, and yourself—I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to avoidance, isolation, and a diminished sense of confidence. As a therapist, I help individuals understand the thoughts, beliefs, and fears that fuel their anxiety in social situations. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to challenge negative thinking patterns and build healthier, more realistic self-perceptions. I also incorporate exposure therapy in a gradual, supportive way—helping clients face feared situations step by step, so they can gain confidence through real-world experiences. Over time, clients learn to manage their anxiety more effectively, increase their comfort in social settings, and engage more fully in life. My goal is to help you feel more connected, capable, and at ease with yourself and others.

Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) represents major modality of treatment to overcome social anxiety and stress. In addition, mindfulness plays a role in my therapeutic approach. Seligman and Reichenberg (2014) provide profound insight as to how best to accomplish these goals namely: (a) employing effective and well-conceived Socratic questions, (b) helping the client to establish a clear framework of his/her perceptions and thoughts and (c) helping the client to reframe such perceptions and thoughts where negative cognitions exist.

Social anxiety can range from barely noticeable to debilitating. If you feel social anxiety is a problem in your life, I have many ways to address it. By identifying your personal experience of anxiety, we can work together to help reduce it using a combination of techniques that are appropriate for you. This may include mental strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Systematic Desensitization, or physical strategies such as breathing techniques, muscle relaxation, or other relaxation techniques.

Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or high-stakes, even when others can’t tell. Whether you’re avoiding conversations, overthinking everything you say, or feeling like you can’t be yourself around others, I help clients work through the fear of judgment and build real confidence. You don’t have to become an extrovert. You just need tools to stop anxiety from calling the shots.

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.

Therapy can help you understand what fuels this anxiety and develop tools to feel calmer and more confident around others.
