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.

David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for social anxiety, I help you identify and challenge the fear of being judged or scrutinized by others in social or performance situations. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe self-critical thoughts while teaching you practical social skills and grounding techniques to manage physical discomfort. Through gradual, supportive exposure to social settings, I work with you to build genuine self-confidence and reduce the need for avoidance or safety behaviors.

Dr. Sam Macy
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety can limit us personally and professionally, making life smaller and less-realized. I use an integrative therapeutic approach to help people feel more confident in social interactions, and more willing to take "good risks" towards a more expanded and empowered life.
