Dan Safavi
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-22108
I help adults who feel anxious, self-conscious, or overly focused on how they are being perceived in social situations. Therapy can help you reduce avoidance, become less caught up in self-monitoring, and feel more comfortable connecting with others without needing every interaction to go perfectly.

Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Social anxiety is more than being shy or uncomfortable around people. It can feel like constantly seeing yourself through someone else's eyes—monitoring what you're saying, how you're coming across, whether you're being judged, and replaying interactions long after they're over.
While avoidance can make social anxiety worse, we are also interested in understanding why being seen by other people feels so threatening in the first place. Beneath social anxiety we often find shame, fear of rejection, harsh self-criticism, painful earlier experiences, or a deeply held belief that something about you will be exposed and found unacceptable.
Our approach to social anxiety therapy combines psychodynamic and depth-oriented work with practical interventions when helpful. We explore where these fears came from, how they shape your relationships, and the ways avoidance or self-monitoring may unintentionally keep the anxiety alive. Exposure, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral strategies can also help you gradually build confidence and tolerate situations you've learned to fear.
The goal isn't to turn an introvert into an extrovert or teach you how to perform better socially. It's to help you become more comfortable being yourself in the presence of other people—without constantly watching, judging, or editing yourself.

Social Anxiety can be a difficult obstacle for people when trying to be social and wanting to connect and create friendships and relationships. Together we will work on thoughts that prevent connection and being seen due to fear of judgments and find out the underlying issues experiences that have contributed to these feelings.
