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.

Social anxiety has a way of existing even in the quiet moments. I work with clients to decrease ruminating thoughts, dwelling, and anxious/avoidance cycles. There are many ways we can approach your social anxiety - which may include changes in how you speak to yourself, how you engage/disengage with others, and how to work on staying connected throughout conversations. Our goal will be directly based on what is useful for you in decreasing your social anxiety.

Social anxiety can make life extremely limited in what you can or want to do. It is our human nature to want to avoid; however, this most often takes us further away from the life you desire.
