Social Anxiety
David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
If you have social anxiety, it is because being social is important to you. Negative thoughts and feelings can take us off course from the direction we want our lives to go in. My acceptance and commitment therapy approach can support you in identifying your core values around being social. These then act as a compass, a guiding force to give you the motivation to tolerate the discomfort of moving towards things that are important to us.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Social anxiety can make even everyday interactions feel overwhelming. You might replay conversations in your head, worry about being judged, avoid social situations, or feel intense physical symptoms like a racing heart or shaky hands. As a therapist who works with social anxiety, I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can gently unpack these fears and build confidence step by step. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts and beliefs that fuel anxiety, practice skills to manage physical symptoms, and gradually face feared situations in ways that feel manageable and empowering. Therapy is about helping you feel more comfortable and authentic in your own skin. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based. We’ll move at a pace that respects your nervous system while still encouraging growth. With the right support and tools, it’s possible to feel more at ease in social settings and more connected in your relationships. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
