Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Social anxiety often involves more than shyness. It can include fear of judgment, self-consciousness, anticipatory worry, or feeling “on edge” in social or professional situations. Even when individuals understand that their fears may be exaggerated, the emotional response can feel automatic and difficult to control.
My approach to working with social anxiety is personalized and collaborative. Hypnosis helps address the subconscious patterns that influence how the mind and body respond in social settings. Rather than using scripted techniques, sessions are tailored to the individual’s goals and real-life situations, helping reduce anxiety, build confidence, and develop a greater sense of ease during interactions.
Clients commonly seek hypnosis for social anxiety related to public speaking, meetings, social gatherings, dating, or workplace interactions. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that allows clients to remain aware and in control while learning to respond more calmly and confidently.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help clients feel more comfortable, present, and self-assured in social situations.

Breaking the Cycle of Social Anxiety
Social anxiety often creates a "safety cycle" where we avoid situations to stay safe, which unintentionally makes the fear grow stronger. We help you break that cycle using a combination of clinical expertise and real-world tools.
Our Specialized Approach
Because social anxiety affects the mind, body, and behavior, we use a multi-dimensional approach to treatment:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To identify and challenge the "mind-reading" thoughts that tell you others are judging you.
DBT & Mindfulness: To manage the physical symptoms of anxiety (like racing heart or sweating) in the moment

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and free their life from constant worry. Social anxiety is characterized by a fear of social perception or judgment and can be overwhelming and depressing as it can hold you back from what you truly want to achieve or what you have to offer the world. I work with individuals to find their confidence and voice again. It can be scary, but sometimes the scariest things are the most rewarding! Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Social anxiety goes far deeper than shyness — it is a persistent, exhausting fear of judgment, embarrassment, or saying the wrong thing that can quietly shrink your world over time. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults and high-achieving professionals navigate social anxiety disorder, performance anxiety, fear of judgment, public speaking anxiety, and the social avoidance that keeps so many capable people from fully engaging in their personal and professional lives. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, exposure-based techniques, and psychodynamic insight, I help clients build genuine confidence and meaningful connection. Telehealth therapy for social anxiety available across 40+ states.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, overwhelming, or emotionally exhausting. Whether you're worried about being judged, speaking up in groups, meeting new people, or feeling more confident in social or professional settings, therapy can help.
Drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, we'll work together to understand the patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to social anxiety. By gradually challenging unhelpful beliefs and developing practical coping strategies, you can build confidence, feel more at ease in social situations, and engage more fully in the relationships and experiences that matter most to you.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients manage their social anxiety. People can be unpredictable and rejecting. For someone that is different, who struggles to pick up on subtle social cues, or who has social communication differences, interacting with others can be tiring and painful. Yet, so many of us are social creatures and get lonely. I enjoy helping clients build a supportive community, find their tribe, and feel more confident interacting with others.
