Social Anxiety
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I address social anxiety with a compassionate and faith-centered approach, integrating psychological insights with Christian principles to guide individuals toward overcoming their fears. Recognizing the challenges associated with social anxiety, I create a supportive environment that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on faith. Drawing upon biblical teachings on courage, trust in God, and the value of community, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of social anxiety and develop coping strategies. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and an understanding of one's worth in Christ, the counselor empowers individuals to face social situations with confidence. This integrated approach seeks to address the psychological and spiritual aspects of social anxiety, fostering a sense of belonging and ease within social interactions within the context of their Christian beliefs.

Social Anxiety
Psychologist, PsyD
Treating social anxiety requires a multifaceted approach that addresses the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects of the condition. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy, I collaborate with clients to challenge negative thought patterns, reduce avoidance behaviors, and gradually confront feared social situations. Through structured exercises and role-playing, clients learn to reframe anxious thoughts, develop coping strategies, and build confidence in their social interactions.
