Social Anxiety
Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
With social anxiety we will work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions as well as positive self talk, behavioral activation, probability estimation, pros and cons of being social, social skills & social cues, and behavioral activation (taking action). Often times we make something seem scarier in our own mind than it actually is. With anxiety one of the best ways to overcome it is simply to engage in the activity that scares you. I will help you to stop your negative thinking, to learn relaxation techniques and coping skills and then encourage you to face your fears and gain practice in social situations.

Social Anxiety
Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
If being watched, judged, or evaluated makes your mind race and your body tense, you know what social anxiety costs; friendships not made, chances not taken, moments you dreaded instead of enjoyed. I help you understand the fear underneath it, settle your nervous system in the moment, and gradually build the confidence to be seen. You don't have to become someone else; you just have to stop bracing against yourself.
