Social Anxiety
Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for anxiety disorders, including social anxiety. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue letting anxiety rule their choices, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. Social anxiety is isolating and painful. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for social anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary anxiety and OCD, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. You don't have to keep suffering this way.

Social Anxiety
Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
Social anxiety is more than shyness—it’s the persistent fear of judgment, exposure, or saying the wrong thing that leads to avoidance, over-monitoring, or withdrawal. Many high-functioning men manage work and responsibilities well while quietly avoiding social situations, speaking up, or forming deeper connections.
Therapy for social anxiety focuses on reducing threat sensitivity, unlearning self-critical patterns, and building steady confidence in real-world interactions. With structured, evidence-based work, men learn to engage socially without overthinking, regain ease around others, and show up more fully in professional and personal settings.

Ilyssa Swartout

Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming. You may worry about being judged, say little out of fear, or avoid situations altogether. Therapy can help you understand what fuels this anxiety and develop tools to feel calmer and more confident around others. Using a blend of mindfulness and trauma-informed techniques, we’ll work to reduce fear responses, increase emotional regulation, and build genuine self-assurance in social settings.

Valiant Minds Counseling, P.C.
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, ADHD-CCSP
Social anxiety can present itself in many ways.

At Valiant Minds Counseling, I like to explore and understand each individual's experience with social anxiety and provide them with a treatment plan specific to their needs. In addition to social anxiety, I have extensive experience in treating children with selective mutism.

Social Anxiety
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.

We work with adolescents, young adults, and adults to build emotional regulation, communication skills, and self-compassion, while gradually expanding comfort and connection in social and professional settings.

Social Anxiety
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!
