Social Anxiety and Social Anorexia cases have had documented increase with lower practice of intimacy in our current culture. In addition, social isolation registers in the same part of the brain that processes pain and we are biological beings that need social engagement for health and stasis. CPTSD and intensive health needs can contribute to a sense of growing isolation or challenges with over stimulation, limiting social interactions. There could be grief due to that or ease if it aligns with a neurobiology that doesn't prefer social interactions in person. There are many creative ways to connect these days. Utilizing Havening, Brainspotting, Polyvagal Theory, Safe and Sound Protocol, IFS, Attachment Theory, and optionally Energy Work to address adrenal fatigue, clients may stretching into experiences of more social engagement and working through trauma or anxiety along the way. This work combines a sensitive understanding of social systems and the pressures that come with adapting to them. Additionally, clients can gain safe practice with communication utilizing NVC and other communication and relationship models.

David Eshleman
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
So often shame and social anxiety are tied together. It has been said that "It is a joy to be hidden and a disaster not to be found". I find this to be very true. We all desire closeness and intimacy, however, often when we experience conditional worth, shame based parenting and other traumas early in our lives, we can naturally develop a fear of people. Social anxiety is to be afraid of being ourselves for fear of rejection or some other shame/imperfection. Learning to love ourselves, heal from the shame, and reclaim our birthright of belonging is the work.

New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, overwhelming, or even paralyzing. Whether it’s fear of judgment, discomfort in groups, or avoidance of social situations, these patterns often stem from past experiences, attachment wounds, or self-critical beliefs. In therapy, we provide a safe, supportive space to explore these fears, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop practical coping skills. With Christ-centered guidance, clients learn to build confidence, deepen connection with others, and engage in life with greater ease, courage, and emotional freedom.
