Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming—whether it's speaking up in meetings, attending social gatherings, meeting new people, or even making small talk. The fear of being judged, embarrassed, or rejected can lead to avoidance that limits your personal and professional life, leaving you feeling isolated and frustrated.
I specialize in helping clients overcome social anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the most effective evidence-based treatment for this condition. Together, we'll identify the anxious thoughts that fuel your fear—beliefs like "everyone will think I'm stupid" or "I'll embarrass myself"—and learn to challenge and reframe them with more realistic, balanced thinking. My goal is to help you engage more fully in life—to pursue opportunities, build meaningful connections, and feel comfortable being yourself in social situations. Social anxiety is highly treatable, and with the right tools and support, you can experience genuine freedom and confidence.

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.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can be an effective tool for treating social anxiety by helping individuals overcome the fear and discomfort associated with social situations. Through relaxation techniques and positive suggestion, hypnotherapists support clients in accessing subconscious beliefs that contribute to anxiety, enabling them to reframe negative self-perceptions and develop greater confidence. This approach may reduce physiological symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heartbeat or sweating, and promote calmer, more adaptive responses in social settings. Integrated with other therapies, hypnotherapy empowers individuals to build self-assurance and engage more comfortably in social interactions.
