Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Social anxiety can be painful and isolating, but it doesn't have to be. I understand why this is one of people's top fears. Talking in therapy about the worries you have and learning new ways to practice social skills as well as learning more accurate self talk and self appraisal can increase confidence and improve your social life.

Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in social anxiety because I believe no one should have to live in fear of judgment or feel isolated by their own mind. Social anxiety is far more than just shyness—it is a, often debilitating, fear of being scrutinized that restricts careers, relationships, and daily life.
I help clients break the cycle of avoidance by using evidence-based tools, such as:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Challenging and reframing the automatic negative thoughts that fuel anxiety.
Gradual Exposure: Safely facing feared social situations to build lasting confidence.
Skill Development: Learning practical techniques for relaxation, conversation, and assertiveness.
My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can dismantle those barriers together, allowing you to re-engage with the world on your own terms. Social anxiety is highly treatable, and I am passionate about guiding clients toward freedom and connection.

Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, exhausting, or even impossible.

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.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
True social anxiety is debilitating, overwhelming, and draining. It is also painful for those who want to have meaningful relationships, but as of yet, can't cope with the ongoing effort entailed to make it happen. Therapy will examine your specific trigger thoughts and situations, problematic recurring patterns, and identify reasonable goals for you to improve upon your comfort level and relationships.

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.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
People with social anxiety often have a number of self-defeating attitudes that underpin their social anxiety. First, they wrongly think they must perform perfectly well. They also usually think that they need the approval of significant others, that it is awful to experience disapproval and failure. They also tend to wrongly believe that rejection and failure prove they are inadequate as people. I teach you that yes there are practical implications of disapproval and failure, but there need not be unhealthy anxiety about these consequences. I teach healthy attitudes toward one's self, one's rejections and failures. I teach you to have a desire to be accepted by others and do well but to accept yourself unconditionally even when you are rejected and fail.
