Alicia Townsend
Psychologist, PhD, BCN
Social anxiety can range from barely noticeable to debilitating. If you have more social anxiety than you would like, I have many ways to address it. By identifying your personal experience of anxiety, we can work together to help reduce it using a combination of techniques that are appropriate for you. This may include mental strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Systematic Desensitization, or physical strategies such as breathing techniques or other relaxation techniques.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work to address social anxiety by offering targeted interventions to help individuals navigate social interactions with greater ease. Through evidence-based techniques, I work collaboratively with patients to identify, explore, and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build a sense of confidence and competence, and develop effective coping mechanisms. The aim is to empower individuals to overcome social fears and enhance overall social wellbeing.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
The ambivalence people can experience in the desire for interpersonal connection while feeling uneasy or anxious in the presence of others can be difficult.
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a haven for those who find themselves shadowed by social anxiety. I understand the quiet turmoil of feeling perpetually on the outside, the racing heart in social situations, and the persistent fear of judgment. With empathy and gentle guidance, I work alongside my clients to unravel the complex emotions and thoughts that fuel their anxiety. Our journey together focuses on building confidence, developing coping strategies, and gently stretching the boundaries of comfort zones. It's about transforming the fear of connection into a celebration of your unique self in the social tapestry, enabling you to step into the world with a newfound sense of belonging and ease.
