Social Anxiety
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Do you secretly hope your friends will cancel the plans you have made with them or spend time trying to figure out how to get out of social events because the thought of interacting with people or even walking into the even terrifies you? Social anxiety can be extremely crippling, and those of us who deal with it often struggle from loneliness and isolation even though those same social situations we crave so desperately also overwhelm us tremendously. In therapy you can learn new strategies to manage your anxiety, learn ways of creating friends AND showing up to enjoy them, and ways to create a community of people that “get” you and have space for you however you choose to show up. We can also help you learn to love ALL of the facets of your life- including the moments where you get to show up to spend time with others and the times you are alone. I find that online therapy is particularly good for social anxiety because we can work together in any place you feel safe and comfortable in and work together to help you stretch and strengthen your ability to interact socially. Please reach out!

Alina Hovsoyan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support clients with social anxiety by creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment where they can explore fears related to social situations and interpersonal interactions. I help clients identify triggers, negative thought patterns, and avoidance behaviors that contribute to anxiety. I teach evidence-based strategies such as cognitive-behavioral techniques to challenge distorted thinking, gradual exposure to feared situations, and mindfulness or relaxation exercises to manage physiological arousal. I also work with clients on building social skills, improving confidence, and developing coping strategies to navigate social interactions more effectively. Throughout therapy, I provide encouragement, validation, and structured support to help clients reduce anxiety, increase participation in social situations, and strengthen their sense of self-efficacy.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Social anxiety is a very common condition that can result in avoidance and/or avoidance and also a lot of discomfort when being or even thinking of being in a social situation including 1 on 1, small and large group situations. Most individuals feel they don't know what to say or how to act and will be shunned, avoided or rejected. I provide social skills training to improve confidence, relaxation skills to reduce anxiety and strategies to change negative thinking patterns with healthy and adaptive ones. Whether it's becoming more comfortable and effective in asking someone on a date, socializing at a party or giving a speech at work, I can help.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
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.

Jordan Dye - Prepared Acceptance
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMT
For professionals in high-stakes environments, social anxiety often feels like a direct conflict with your professional identity. When you are trained to be assertive and decisive in a crisis, it can be frustrating and isolating to find yourself overthinking social interactions or feeling "on display" in civilian settings. Having served in the National Guard and worked in the Emergency Department, I understand the unique exhaustion of moving from a high-intensity professional role to a social one where the rules of engagement feel completely different. My approach is direct and skill-based, focusing on the underlying hyper-vigilance that keeps you scanning for judgment or mistakes. We will work together to quiet the "high-functioning" internal critic and build the confidence you need to be as comfortable in your personal life as you are in your professional one.

Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
Anxiety is about fear, and fear is about safety or the absence of it. Sometimes there are certain situations that trigger fear, often a fear of how others might see us or judge us. There are some really good and evidence based approaches for treating anxiety. The approach I use is not a quick fix, but you and I will get you to a place where the fear is small enough to be ignored.

Social Anxiety
Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Social anxiety is the body responding to social situations as if they were genuinely dangerous. It is not shyness and it is not a character flaw. It is a subconscious pattern, usually formed early, that learned to brace and self-monitor in the presence of other people. RTT works directly with the moment that pattern was formed and updates it. Once the threat signal quietens, social situations stop feeling like a performance and start feeling like, well, situations. I work with adults who have tried talking therapy and exposure work and want something that addresses the underlying wiring rather than just managing the surface symptoms.

Aguib Diop
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
While most of us place some value on our personal and professional reputations, what happens when we're in constant fear of these reputations being tarnished or attacked? For those with social anxiety disorders, the result is the avoidance of people, experiences and opportunities that could result in life’s enjoyment. If you have a social anxiety disorder, our shared goal will be to gradually confront these avoided situations. After experiencing each situation, your original thoughts will be reframed to match this experience rather than the feared worst-case scenario. You’ll also apply coping strategies that help you feel at ease while confronting situations. You may even learn to laugh at yourself, which is almost always a win.
