Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you worry about saying just the *right* thing on a first date? Do you replay conversations you had with co-workers or your partner and beat yourself up because you didn't say something perfectly? Do you feel like you have to rehearse over and over what you're going to say before you say it so you don't feel rejected or stupid? These are all common indicators of social anxiety and they don't have to keep ruling your life. It is possible to let go of needing to show up perfectly in conversations and not beat yourself up. Let me show you how.

Salutaris Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting, risky, or overanalyzed long after they are over. It may show up as fear of being judged, difficulty speaking up, avoiding certain people or situations, replaying conversations, or feeling tense in groups, dating, work, family, or community settings. In therapy, I help clients understand the thoughts, fears, and past experiences that may be keeping social anxiety in place. My style is warm, practical, sometimes humorous, and grounded in real life. Together, we work on building confidence, reducing overthinking, strengthening self-acceptance, and developing tools that help you show up more fully and comfortably in your relationships and daily life.

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.

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.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Social anxiety reflects fears of visibility, judgment, and emotional exposure. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration with somatic awareness to understand how relational fear is held in both the body and inner life. This process supports greater confidence, presence, and emotional freedom in social and intimate situations.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt your heart race—wondering what people are thinking about you, or wishing you could disappear before anyone notices? Social anxiety can make even simple moments—talking in class, attending church, meeting new people—feel like survival. Over time, the worry turns into withdrawal, and loneliness begins to take root.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand how exhausting it is to overthink every word and every glance. Our Christian counselors help you quiet the noise of self-criticism, retrain your body’s stress response, and build confidence that lasts beyond the next conversation.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use faith-integrated, evidence-based methods—including CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic grounding, and exposure techniques—combined with biblical truth and compassionate guidance to help you:
• Calm the physical symptoms of anxiety in social settings
• Overcome fear of judgment and rejection
• Strengthen communication and self-expression
• Build authentic connections and trust
• Restore peace through a renewed sense of identity in Christ
You don’t have to live trapped inside your own thoughts. With practical tools, gentle exposure, and spiritual grounding, you can learn to walk into any room with calm confidence—rooted not in others’ approval, but in God’s love for you.
If you’re ready to stop hiding and start living freely, Rising Calm Center is here to help you find your voice and your peace again.

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.
