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.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to the treatment social anxiety is grounded in evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and beliefs that contribute to fear and self-consciousness in social situations. Together, we use practical strategies such as cognitive restructuring, gradual exposure, and social skills training to build confidence and reduce avoidance. This structured, supportive process helps clients develop a more balanced perspective and engage more comfortably and authentically in social interactions.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt your heart race—wondering what people are thinking about you, or wishing you could disappear before anyone notices? Social anxiety can make even simple moments—talking in class, attending church, meeting new people—feel like survival. Over time, the worry turns into withdrawal, and loneliness begins to take root.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand how exhausting it is to overthink every word and every glance. Our Christian counselors help you quiet the noise of self-criticism, retrain your body’s stress response, and build confidence that lasts beyond the next conversation.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use faith-integrated, evidence-based methods—including CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic grounding, and exposure techniques—combined with biblical truth and compassionate guidance to help you:
• Calm the physical symptoms of anxiety in social settings
• Overcome fear of judgment and rejection
• Strengthen communication and self-expression
• Build authentic connections and trust
• Restore peace through a renewed sense of identity in Christ
You don’t have to live trapped inside your own thoughts. With practical tools, gentle exposure, and spiritual grounding, you can learn to walk into any room with calm confidence—rooted not in others’ approval, but in God’s love for you.
If you’re ready to stop hiding and start living freely, Rising Calm Center is here to help you find your voice and your peace again.

Jessica Anderson, PsyD

Worrying about what others think, overanalyzing conversations, or avoiding social situations can make everyday life feel stressful and limiting.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who experience social anxiety, fear of judgment, or discomfort in social or professional situations. Social anxiety often involves more than shyness; it can reflect deeper concerns about acceptance, belonging, or fear of exposure in relationships with others.
My work is grounded in the belief that anxiety develops within relational experience. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a space to explore how fears of evaluation or rejection have developed and how they continue to shape interactions with others. Through increased understanding, individuals often find greater freedom to engage socially in ways that feel more natural and less constrained by fear.
I also work with couples who wish to understand how social anxiety affects communication and relational connection.

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.

Social Anxiety
Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Social Anxiety
Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety, like other anxieties, involves fear of situations that we can not be certain of the outcome. Social anxiety is different in that it is fear of others' perceptions of us and that they will negatively judge and evaluate us. CBT and exposure to these fears is essential to overcoming these beliefs, thoughts, and avoidance/escape behavioral patterns.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with thoughtful, high‑achieving adults, often sensitive or highly self‑aware, who struggle with social anxiety. You may care deeply about connection but find that being around others brings up a lot of worry, overthinking, or dread. On the outside, you may seem capable and composed; inside, it can feel like a constant evaluation of how you are coming across. Social anxiety can feel like living in your head while your body is in the room. I work extensively with social anxiety in high‑responsibility adults and know how consuming it can feel, even when no one else sees it.
It can look like replaying conversations and worrying you said the wrong thing; avoiding gatherings, calls, or new situations because they feel too intense; fear of being judged, embarrassed, or seen as awkward or boring; difficulty speaking up in groups, at work, or in class; feeling like you do not quite know the rules that other people seem to follow; or wanting close relationships but pulling back when things get more vulnerable. Over time, this can lead to isolation, loneliness, or feeling stuck in patterns you do not want.
In our work together, we get curious about where this started and how it shows up now. We make room for the part of you that is trying to keep you safe by staying small or hidden. From there, we explore small, doable steps toward more ease and authenticity with the people and situations that matter most to you, so you do not have to choose between protecting yourself and having the connections you want.

Through gradual, supportive exposure to social settings, I work with you to build genuine self-confidence and reduce the need for avoidance or safety behaviors.

Social Anxiety
Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Social anxiety has a way of existing even in the quiet moments. I work with clients to decrease ruminating thoughts, dwelling, and anxious/avoidance cycles. There are many ways we can approach your social anxiety - which may include changes in how you speak to yourself, how you engage/disengage with others, and how to work on staying connected throughout conversations. Our goal will be directly based on what is useful for you in decreasing your social anxiety.

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.
