Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Social anxiety is more than just being afraid to speak in public, for many people social anxiety is fear of being judged by other people in any social setting to the extent that they usually decline any social events. Treating social anxiety involves trying to find the source for the anxiety and the negative beliefs that have become part of the client's self beliefs so that we can desensitize, reframe, reprocess, and replace these negative beliefs with improved self-confidence. We will also use visualization exercises in which the client will imagine a social setting and being comfortable with who they are in social settings.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
If social situations leave you overthinking every interaction, you may be experiencing social anxiety. Meetings, conversations, or group settings can feel draining when worry about being judged or misunderstood is always present. Therapy focuses on understanding the patterns behind social anxiety and building confidence so social and professional interactions feel more manageable.

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.
