Social Anxiety
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.

Dr. Thomas Ballas

I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating social anxiety. My professional journey includes working in hospital settings, private practice, and serving as a medical officer in the U.S. Army, where I gained invaluable experience addressing diverse mental health concerns. Over the years, I have honed my skills in evidence-based therapies for social anxiety, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), through advanced training at leading military treatment facilities and esteemed private practices.
These experiences have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges posed by social anxiety and strengthened my dedication to providing compassionate, effective care. My mission is to help you overcome the limitations of social anxiety, build confidence, and lead a more connected and meaningful life. Together, we will create a personalized therapeutic plan tailored to your needs, ensuring you feel supported and empowered every step of the way.

Social anxiety can make conversations and everyday interactions feel tense and exhausting. We will look at what you fear will happen and the habits that keep anxiety reinforced, like avoidance or overthinking.
