I can assist clients with addressing social anxiety with cognitive behavioral therapy approaches.

When these factors are shifted in a positive direction, this can have significant benefits for social anxiety.

Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Social anxiety is a brain that treats human connection as danger — firing threat responses in social situations with the same intensity reserved for genuine emergencies, leaving the body flooded and the mind catastrophizing.
Neurofeedback retrains this misfiring alarm system, quieting the hyperactive circuits that convert social exposure into perceived threat. Over time, connection stops feeling dangerous — and the nervous system learns to experience other people as safe rather than something to survive.

Briana Marshall
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Social interactions can feel overwhelming, whether it’s overthinking what to say, worrying about being judged, or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. Many clients describe feeling stuck between wanting connection and fearing embarrassment or rejection. Together, we’ll explore the root of these fears while building tools to help you feel more confident and present in social situations. Over time, the goal is to help you engage with others in a way that feels more natural, less draining, and more aligned with who you are.

Ross Kellogg, LMFT

Social anxiety can often feel like an unwelcome burden and that it keeps life more limited than you would like. I will support you in reliving these symptoms through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to first build tools to better manage symptoms in the present and will follow that with psychodynamic work to support greater insight and lasting change.
