Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming. You may worry about being judged, say little out of fear, or avoid situations altogether. Therapy can help you understand what fuels this anxiety and develop tools to feel calmer and more confident around others. Using a blend of mindfulness and trauma-informed techniques, we’ll work to reduce fear responses, increase emotional regulation, and build genuine self-assurance in social settings.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety often results in avoidance of many activities. In these cases, fear is running the show. I work to unpack the fear of rejection and encourage people to slowly go out of their comfort zone.
