Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Social anxiety is often far more than just “shyness.” It can involve fear of judgment, overthinking, masking, self-criticism, rejection sensitivity, trauma, neurodivergence, nervous system overload, or the exhausting pressure of constantly monitoring yourself around others.
For many people, social anxiety is not simply about social skills — it is about safety, self-trust, and the fear of being misunderstood, rejected, or exposed.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you better understand what may be happening beneath the surface while building confidence, reducing shame, strengthening emotional regulation, and creating more freedom in how you connect with others.
Together, we work toward helping relationships and social experiences feel more manageable, authentic, and less exhausting.
