Social Anxiety
Nancie Kohlenberger
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Some of us get anxious in social situations where we feel we have lost control. We tend to shy away from those situations. We can feel small and self-conscious. It is important to gain self-confidence so that social situations do not get the best of us. I utilize EMDR and EFT to support growth and a feeling of presence in these stressful situations.

Quinn Knox
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, Trauma-Informed
It has been one of my most satisfying achievements in helping clients work through social anxiety to help them feel more secure and confident interacting with other people in either small or large groups. It all starts with anxiety in self and self-esteem and focusing on both of these topics has hugely assisted in improving overall social anxiety.

Challenge your negative and anxious thoughts. At times it may feel like there’s nothing you can do about the way you feel and how you think. In reality, though, there are a number of things that can help.
Be mindful. Being mindful and practicing mindful meditation helps you to be present and aware of your thoughts and feelings in a non-judgmental and positive way.
Go to a coffee shop. If you enjoy watching movies online or catching up on your favorite TV show, then try taking your tablet or laptop to your nearest coffee shop.
Create an exposure hierarchy. Identify and rate how each social situation makes you feel in terms of anxiousness. For example, 0 would mean no anxiety, and 10 would be a full-blown panic attack.
Don’t focus on yourself. It’s hard to stop the endless mind chatter when you’re in situations that make you particularly anxious. We often turn inward and focus on ourselves and how others will perceive us, almost always assuming it will be negative.
Adopt a healthier lifestyle to reduce anxiety.

Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
I suffered from severe social anxiety for many years. It used to ruin my life. I also had severe blushing. I could not find therapists to help me. Finally with a combination of different therapies and research I was able to resolve my blushing and to put an end to my social anxiety and blushing. Today I specialize in resolving social anxiety, blushing and trauma. If you suffer this way, please schedule a free 15-30 minute complimentary session and let's discuss how I can help you. I see people here in Boulder, CO and by zoom from all over the world.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I run a group for young adult women who struggle with social anxiety. This group allows each member to learn about anxiety, to share what they struggle, to learn coping strategies, and to gain some support from other members. With the pandemic and quarantine, many clients have begun to struggle with social anxiety and I work with these clients to learn how to understand the anxiety they feel and how it impacts their daily life.
