Different from generalized anxiety, social anxiety has specific catalysts and situations that cause it to heighten or worsen. There are methods that make lessening and managing those feelings of discomfort and overwhelm and minimize the catalysts so that you can feel like you are making the choices in your life, instead of feeling like anxiety is making all the choices for you.

Social Anxiety

Dr. Glenn Francis

Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
I know the agony of social anxiety. I am, if you like, an expert in it. Which means, I can help you find compassion for yourself, and the gradual allowance of who and how you are in social life, and the expansion of a certain ease and freedom in this respect that can seem unthinkable at the beginning of the journey.

This is caused by negative, usually unrealistic beliefs about ourselves & others. It is underpinned by actual childhood rejections, which now are projected out onto everyone we meet, especially onto strangers.

Social Anxiety

Chris Guthrey

By fostering acceptance of anxious thoughts and feelings without judgment, my clients can reduce avoidance behaviors and engage more fully in social situations. Additionally, I believe exploring unconscious patterns and past experiences helps uncover underlying causes of anxiety, promoting deeper self-understanding and lasting change.

Santa Fe, New Mexico therapist: Juliana Sloane, hypnotherapist
Social Anxiety

Juliana Sloane

Hypnotherapist, CHT
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming, but hypnosis offers a powerful way to find calm and confidence from within. Through hypnotherapy, we quiet the inner critic, ease anxious thoughts, and strengthen your sense of comfort and authenticity around others. Each session helps reprogram the subconscious mind to support self-trust and genuine connection. I offer virtual hypnosis sessions to help you feel more at ease, confident, and free to be yourself.

San Francisco, California therapist: Susanna La, psychologist
Social Anxiety

Susanna La

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Did you grow up feeling judged, criticized, or not good enough? If so, this may have led to social anxiety and often worrying that others are negatively evaluating you. Have you shaped yourself to try to be "palatable" for other people as if you are constantly wearing a mask pretending to be a version of yourself others might like? Often, having social anxiety can lead to people pleasing and having poor boundaries in order to appear more likable. However, these patterns can be exhausting and leave you feeling like a shell of who you really are. I can support you to be more authentic and to slowly work through patterns that no longer serve you so you can feel more at peace with who you truly are.

Los Angeles, California therapist: David Gumpert, psychologist
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.

Seattle, Washington therapist: Aaron Kapin, somatic experiencing practitioner
Social Anxiety

Aaron Kapin

Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
For some people, their social anxiety is largely a physical response: Their heart pounds, their palms get sweaty, they get so flooded with stress hormones that it's hard for them to think straight. We can work together to teach the body how to move more efficiently through that stress so it can feel safer sooner...and better yet, start addressing the original trigger so that social situations don't need to cause such a stressful reaction to beging with.
