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.

Fallon Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, LPC
"Social anxiety can feel like being constantly watched, leading to a cycle of self-consciousness and avoidance that makes connecting with others feel exhausting. In our sessions, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you understand the root of these fears and develop a new way of engaging with the world. Using evidence-based tools like CBT and DBT skills, we will work on challenging the internal narratives that drive your anxiety and build practical strategies to manage physical and emotional discomfort in social settings. My goal is to help you move from a place of avoidance toward a life where you feel confident, connected, and authentically yourself."
