Orka Health and Wellness, PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LICSW, LMFT, LPCC
Breaking the Cycle of Social Anxiety
Social anxiety often creates a "safety cycle" where we avoid situations to stay safe, which unintentionally makes the fear grow stronger. We help you break that cycle using a combination of clinical expertise and real-world tools.
Our Specialized Approach
Because social anxiety affects the mind, body, and behavior, we use a multi-dimensional approach to treatment:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To identify and challenge the "mind-reading" thoughts that tell you others are judging you.
DBT & Mindfulness: To manage the physical symptoms of anxiety (like racing heart or sweating) in the moment

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Social anxiety can quietly shrink your world — making connection feel more threatening than rewarding, and keeping you from the relationships and experiences you actually want. At Restored, we help clients understand the subconscious beliefs and nervous system patterns fueling social anxiety and work to shift them at a deeper level than traditional coping strategies alone can reach. You deserve to feel at ease in your own skin — and in the presence of others.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and free their life from constant worry. Social anxiety is characterized by a fear of social perception or judgment and can be overwhelming and depressing as it can hold you back from what you truly want to achieve or what you have to offer the world. I work with individuals to find their confidence and voice again. It can be scary, but sometimes the scariest things are the most rewarding! Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety is not shyness. It is the experience of being watched by a judge who lives inside your own head — a judge who arrived long before you ever chose to listen to it. Every room becomes a performance. Every interaction is graded. The exhaustion is not from other people. It is from the constant labor of self-surveillance. Therapy works not by teaching you to ignore the judge but by understanding whose voice it actually is, and why it was installed in the first place.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
True social anxiety is debilitating, overwhelming, and draining. It is also painful for those who want to have meaningful relationships, but as of yet, can't cope with the ongoing effort entailed to make it happen. Therapy will examine your specific trigger thoughts and situations, problematic recurring patterns, and identify reasonable goals for you to improve upon your comfort level and relationships.

Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee
The root of social anxiety tends to be our beliefs about what other people will think of us or whether they are safe with others. This is different than just introverted people. Social anxiety can affect a great many areas of your life but it is something that can be treated and open up your world.

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. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Social anxiety can make even the simplest interactions feel overwhelming. Maybe you spend hours replaying conversations in your head, fearing you said the wrong thing. Perhaps you avoid certain situations altogether—speaking up in meetings, attending social events, or even making phone calls—because the discomfort feels unbearable. The fear of being judged, embarrassed, or not “good enough” can be exhausting, leaving you feeling isolated or stuck in patterns of avoidance.
But social anxiety doesn’t have to dictate your life. Together, we’ll explore the underlying fears that keep you feeling trapped, work on quieting self-criticism, and develop strategies that help you step into social situations with more ease and confidence. You don’t need to be outgoing or fearless to live fully—you just need the tools to navigate social experiences in a way that feels manageable and authentic to you. Growth is possible, and you don’t have to take this step alone.
