Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals struggling with social anxiety, fear of judgment, and difficulty feeling comfortable or confident in social and professional settings. With extensive clinical experience treating anxiety across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how anxiety affects the brain, body, and nervous system. I also teach practical skills to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, helping reduce reactivity and increase a sense of calm and control. Together, we build confidence, strengthen communication, and learn how to become more comfortable with the inherent lack of control in social environments, supporting more authentic and relaxed engagement.

Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Social anxiety is so much more than shyness. It can mean dreading everyday interactions, replaying conversations long after they are over, avoiding situations that feel overwhelming, or carrying a constant fear of being judged, embarrassed, or not meeting others' expectations. At Alabaster Counseling, we understand how exhausting it can be to navigate the world when social situations feel threatening rather than enjoyable, and we are here to help. We work with girls and women of all ages who are struggling with social anxiety, providing a warm and supportive space to explore where those fears come from and gently begin to work through them. Using evidence-based therapy, we help you build confidence, develop practical coping strategies, and start showing up in your life and relationships with greater ease and comfort.

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.
