Jennifer Whaley
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety can make life extremely limited in what you can or want to do. It is our human nature to want to avoid; however, this most often takes us further away from the life you desire. I use a CBT approach of exploring your fears and responses while gaining confidence through practicing actions.

Dr. Allison Williams
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide virtual services to those who may self-identify as socially anxious. If you often feel stuck between wanting to feel seen and wanting to remain invisible, I'd love to help you explore and navigate relationships. Working with me on this concern will likely involve some education and skill-building, exposures or "risk-taking," and some humor to take the edge off. Clients often also have dating-related concerns or inexperience, which I welcome.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

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.

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!
