Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
For some people, their social anxiety is largely a physical response: Their heart pounds, their palms get sweaty, they get so flooded with stress hormones that it's hard for them to think straight.
We can work together to teach the body how to move more efficiently through that stress so it can feel safer sooner...and better yet, start addressing the original trigger so that social situations don't need to cause such a stressful reaction to beging with.

Long Island Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, CCTP
If the thought of walking into a room full of people, speaking up in a meeting, or making small talk leaves you feeling exposed, judged, or frozen, you are not alone. Social anxiety can make your world feel incredibly small. In our sessions, we will create a safe, paced space to challenge the harsh inner critic that tells you everyone is watching or judging. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, I will help you tame physical panic symptoms, quiet the mind-racing "what-ifs," and gradually build authentic social confidence.

You may long for connection while also fearing judgment, criticism, rejection, or not being accepted as you are.

Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, intimidating, or even overwhelming. You might worry about being judged, embarrassed, or saying the “wrong” thing, leading you to avoid social situations, overthink conversations, or feel stuck in cycles of self-doubt. Over time, this can impact relationships, work, and your ability to feel confident and at ease around others. As a clinical psychologist, specializing in trauma, mood disorders and addiction, I help individuals understand and overcome social anxiety in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. Together, we explore the underlying patterns that maintain anxiety, such as attachment anxiety, negative core beliefs about the self, fear of evaluation, and avoidance, and work toward building confidence and flexibility in social situations. My approach is integrative, utilizing evidence-based treatments, including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy and exposure therapy, while also incorporating depth oriented strategies to address root causes. We’ll move at a pace that feels manageable, helping you develop practical skills incrementally to navigate social interactions with greater ease and authenticity. With the right support, it’s possible to feel more comfortable being yourself, engage more fully in relationships, and approach social situations with increased confidence rather than fear.

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If the fear of judgment keeps you isolated, our work is designed to help you reconnect with confidence. We’ll partner to identify and restructure the fear-based thoughts that fuel your anxiety. Using a "parts work" approach, we will gently explore the protective inner system and connect with the source of the anxiety—often a young, vulnerable, or shamed "part" that developed to keep you safe from perceived social threat. This work is gently paced and respects your need for safety as you learn to unhook from the endless cycle of rumination and choose to engage in your life according to your values.

Christine Clark, PsyD
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Anxiety can be one of the most debilitating feelings we as humans can experience. When we feel this in social situations, it can be even worse as we fear judgment from others. Social connections and support can be so valuable and through talking through one’s experiences and fears, it is possible to build the skills necessary to tackle anxiety producing situations head on. Through facing the situations, it is possible to build connection, socially, and create a strong support system that will alleviate other feelings of anxiety one may be experiencing.
