Social anxiety is a combination of fears that have a root in past experiences. It is the way we have found to protect ourselves after a traumatic experience. I help connect with our inner strengths as we understand the root of our fear, the purpose it is serving, and different ways to heal.

Dr. Monica Dyer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, MPH, FNP, PMHNP
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles. I provide both medication management and supportive therapeutic care.
For patients healing from trauma, I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a gentle approach that helps people move forward without being overwhelmed by their past. My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.

Social Anxiety
Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Social anxiety can be an isolating and painful experience, whether it arises in social settings, at work, or even in the simple act of leaving the house. It involves both the external challenge of navigating relationships—expressing needs, setting boundaries, and feeling at ease socially—and the internal experience of anxiety, including difficulty breathing, panic, mental fog, and fear. In our work together, we will address both aspects, using somatic awareness and nervous system regulation to build confidence, ease, and a stronger sense of self. My goal is to support you in feeling grounded and empowered in your interactions, so you can connect more freely and fully with others.

Social Anxiety
Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
You rehearse conversations before they happen. You replay them long after they're over. You cancel plans you actually wanted to keep, say yes when you mean no, and spend so much energy managing how you come across that you leave every interaction exhausted.
Social anxiety isn't shyness. It's a persistent, often exhausting experience of fear around how others perceive you — and it can quietly limit your world in ways that are hard to even name, because avoidance starts to feel like preference.
I work with people across the full range of social anxiety, from the low-grade discomfort that shows up in meetings or social gatherings to the kind that makes phone calls, eye contact, or new relationships feel genuinely unbearable. We work together to understand where it started, what's keeping it going, and how to gradually build a life that isn't organized around avoiding the things that scare you.
This isn't about becoming an extrovert or performing confidence you don't feel. It's about getting your choices back — being able to decide what you do and don't want based on what matters to you, not based on fear.
Social anxiety often overlaps with depression, perfectionism, and ADHD, and I'm experienced in treating the whole picture. If faith is part of your life, we can bring that into the work as well.
You don't have to keep disappearing to feel safe.

Jonathan Hock -- Men's Work
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism in men often masks a deeper struggle with meaning, control, and self-worth. It can drive relentless effort and achievement while quietly eroding satisfaction, connection, and a sense of authenticity. I work with men to uncover what perfectionism is protecting or avoiding, to explore the fears and expectations that fuel it, and to examine how it shapes daily life. The goal is not to eliminate striving, but to bring awareness and choice to it, so that effort serves purpose rather than anxiety, and men can engage with life more fully and freely.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
Social anxiety can show up in different ways: physical reactions when socializing, beliefs about not being liked, worries about how to interact with others, and tendencies of shutting down around others. EMDR and IFS can be helpful modalities to target these thoughts and symptoms by lowering distress and reframing core beliefs.

Laredo is one of the most culturally unified US-Mexico border cities in the country — with a population that is over 95% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life — making bilingual, bicultural therapists not a specialty but an essential baseline for meaningful access to care. The city's economy is driven by international trade and logistics, with one of the busiest land ports in the United States, and therapists frequently address the occupational stress of commercial transport workers alongside the immigration stress experienced by families maintaining ties on both sides of the border. Laredo Medical Center and the Laredo VA Outpatient Clinic provide institutional resources, while the therapy community overall is relatively sparse compared to the population's scale. Webb County's concentration of poverty and social stress amplifies the need for community-accessible mental health services.
