Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
Social anxiety is often a part of you that learned the room wasn't safe — that being seen meant being judged, or that taking up space came with a cost. That part isn't irrational. It learned something real. I help clients understand where that part came from and what it still needs, so it doesn't have to run the show every time you walk into a room

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you constantly seeking acceptance from others? Do you struggle with being your authentic self because you worry about how other's perceive you? Do you avoid social situations because you fear you may say something wrong or not be liked by others? Anxiety can be debilitating in social situations. CBT is often used to assist individuals with increasing confidence in social situations and learning how to give oneself grace when they say or do something wrong. Dr. Goodwin will work on helping individuals to let go of the idea that they need to be perfect, or what they perceive as the perfect person, to be liked by others so they can work on being the person they were meant to be. Together, we can work on helping you to believe in yourself and be the best version of who you are meant to be.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Social anxiety is often described as shyness, but for many people, it feels much more intense—overthinking every interaction, worrying about how you’re coming across, replaying conversations afterward, or avoiding situations altogether because the discomfort feels too high. It can make everyday things—meeting new people, speaking up, even casual interactions—feel exhausting. And in environments that are fast-paced, socially demanding, or unclear, that anxiety can build quickly.
For some, social anxiety is also connected to neurodivergence—such as ADHD, autism, or giftedness—where social dynamics may feel less intuitive, more effortful, or shaped by past experiences of being misunderstood. That context matters, and it changes how we approach the work.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t treat social anxiety as something to “push through” without support. We help you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, and how your specific patterns developed. From there, we actively build practical, realistic strategies—whether that’s managing physical anxiety, shifting thought patterns, or gradually increasing comfort in social situations in ways that feel doable. We also name the cultural and systemic factors that shape social expectations, so you’re not holding yourself to standards that may not actually fit you. This work is about helping you feel more at ease, more confident, and more able to show up as yourself—without constantly second-guessing or shrinking.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals understand social anxiety and loosen its grip, easing distress while making room for genuine connection. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening at and beneath the surface—anticipatory fear, self-monitoring, and the meanings carried from past experience—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less avoidance and second-guessing, more ease, choice, and confidence in relating to others.

Matt Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LMHC
Social anxiety is one of my specialties and honestly one of my favorite things to work on with clients. Why? Because it's actually a mental health issue that responds really well to the right approaches. If you're willing to put in the work and practice what I teach you, you're going to see some pretty amazing progress. I've watched so many clients break free from social anxiety over the years, and these are the same techniques that helped me work through my own social fears. I also have tons of experience helping people get over their fear of public speaking, which usually goes hand in hand with social anxiety.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals struggling with social anxiety, fear of judgment, and difficulty feeling comfortable or confident in social and professional settings. With extensive clinical experience treating anxiety across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how anxiety affects the brain, body, and nervous system. I also teach practical skills to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, helping reduce reactivity and increase a sense of calm and control. Together, we build confidence, strengthen communication, and learn how to become more comfortable with the inherent lack of control in social environments, supporting more authentic and relaxed engagement.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You might appear confident and capable to others—but inside, social situations feel exhausting, overwhelming, or filled with second-guessing. Whether it’s speaking in groups, initiating friendships, navigating dating, or networking, social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel high-stakes. You may replay conversations in your head, fear saying the wrong thing, or feel pressure to present yourself in ways that aren’t sustainable. And while avoidance might bring temporary relief, it often reinforces the shame and isolation underneath.
For neurodivergent folks—including those with ADHD or autism—social anxiety can come with an added layer of complexity. You might feel like you’re constantly monitoring your tone, facial expressions, or body language just to meet unspoken expectations. Masking can become second nature—and incredibly draining. Even when things go “fine,” you might leave social interactions feeling overstimulated, disconnected, or unsure of how you were received.
I work frequently with high-achieving professionals and emerging adults navigating the intense internal pressure to show up flawlessly in social, academic, or professional spaces—always “on,” even when it’s exhausting. In our work together, we’ll also explore how social expectations intersect with aspects of your identity—and how these pressures have shaped your sense of self and belonging.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients understand the roots of their social anxiety and develop tools to connect with others in ways that feel more authentic and sustainable. We’ll build insight, strengthen your self-trust, and practice new ways of showing up that support the kind of connection you actually want. With over 15 years of experience, I offer a compassionate space where you don’t have to perform, translate, or push through. If you're ready to unmask, exhale, and feel more at ease in your relationships, your work, and yourself—I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

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.
