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.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with social anxiety, I take a thoughtful, body-centered approach to help you better understand how anxiety shows up and what it’s trying to communicate. Together, we track your internal experience and develop tools for self-regulation—supporting your nervous system in moments of activation. We also explore the deeper beliefs that may underlie your anxiety, including fears around judgment, worth, or belonging. Through a combination of somatic awareness, parts work, and cognitive tools like reality testing, we begin to shift how you relate to social situations and build more flexibility, confidence, and connection in your day-to-day life.

Allied Psychotherapy Group
Psychologist
Social anxiety can make everyday situations feel like a performance where you are constantly worried about saying the wrong thing, being judged, or not measuring up. You may avoid social events, overthink conversations afterward, or feel anxious in work, dating, school, or group settings. Our therapists help clients understand the cycle of social anxiety and gradually build greater confidence and comfort around other people. Therapy may include practical strategies for managing anxious thoughts, reducing avoidance, and approaching feared situations at a pace that feels manageable, so anxiety has less control over the life you want to live.

Cicek Erdem

Social anxiety can quietly shape how you move through the world—leading you to hold back, overprepare, overanalyze, or avoid situations that feel emotionally risky. You may long for connection while also fearing judgment, criticism, rejection, or not being accepted as you are. Together, we will explore the roots of these fears while helping you feel more secure, authentic, and at ease in relationships and social situations.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can be like nesting dolls: the anxiety and avoidance of social situations creates new problems to feel anxious about, and the challenges multiply. It helps to have a place to talk through what is making you anxious today while also working to understand how past experiences are contributing to present symptoms. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can learn techniques to reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.
