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
Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social anxiety is often less about being around people and more about being seen — and the terror of what they might find if they really look. At Simple Empathy we work with the part of you that monitors, edits and manages every interaction, and we get curious about what it's protecting you from. This isn't exposure therapy disguised as something deeper. It's actual depth work — looking at the story beneath the anxiety, the early experiences that taught you that being visible was dangerous, and building a self that can be seen without bracing for impact.

Social Anxiety
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients manage their social anxiety. People can be unpredictable and rejecting. For someone that is different, who struggles to pick up on subtle social cues, or who has social communication differences, interacting with others can be tiring and painful. Yet, so many of us are social creatures and get lonely. I enjoy helping clients build a supportive community, find their tribe, and feel more confident interacting with others.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You overthink everything you say. You replay conversations long after they’re over, second-guessing how you came across. Maybe you dread group settings, avoid situations where you might be put on the spot, or mask your discomfort so well that no one would ever know how anxious you feel inside. Social anxiety doesn’t always look like panic—it can look like perfectionism, avoidance, or exhaustion from constantly managing how you’re perceived.
Dr. Jenny Shields helps people who are quietly carrying social anxiety beneath the surface—especially those who seem calm and capable on the outside but feel anything but on the inside. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassion-based work, she helps you gently face the fears that are running the show, learn new ways to respond, and build confidence from the inside out. Her approach is warm, respectful, and deeply attuned to the sensitivity that often comes with social anxiety. Together, you’ll work to ease the self-doubt, drop the need to perform, and reclaim your voice—not by becoming someone else, but by learning to show up as yourself.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Social anxiety goes far deeper than shyness — it is a persistent, exhausting fear of judgment, embarrassment, or saying the wrong thing that can quietly shrink your world over time. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults and high-achieving professionals navigate social anxiety disorder, performance anxiety, fear of judgment, public speaking anxiety, and the social avoidance that keeps so many capable people from fully engaging in their personal and professional lives. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, exposure-based techniques, and psychodynamic insight, I help clients build genuine confidence and meaningful connection. Telehealth therapy for social anxiety available across 40+ states.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, overwhelming, or emotionally exhausting. Whether you're worried about being judged, speaking up in groups, meeting new people, or feeling more confident in social or professional settings, therapy can help.
Drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, we'll work together to understand the patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to social anxiety. By gradually challenging unhelpful beliefs and developing practical coping strategies, you can build confidence, feel more at ease in social situations, and engage more fully in the relationships and experiences that matter most to you.
