Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Social anxiety can manifest in many ways. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, flushing of the face, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation in social and performance situations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming social anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Jill Wiseman
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC-S
Let's face it, for a lot of us being around other people can be stressful and uncomfortable. Human nature leads us to try and avoid the people and situations that make us feel uncomfortable, but that relief is temporary. The more we avoid social situations, the more that avoidance contributes to social anxiety. The two primary therapeutic approaches that I use with clients are both evidence-based treatments for reducing symptoms of social anxiety. Accelerated Resolution Therapy often reduces the negative emotional reaction to anxiety triggers in an average of 1 to 5 sessions. Cognitive Behavior Therapy helps clients identify and replace the unhelpful thinking that leads to uncomfortable feelings and less preferred actions. Together, these two approaches can help bring faster relief from social anxiety and "clear your headspace" to learn new strategies and tools for helping yourself cope better with life's challenges.

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.

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.

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.
