Rose Hanna Counseling Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions — meetings, parties, even small talk — feel like a minefield. Our therapists help you understand what's driving that fear and build real, practical tools to feel more at ease in social situations, so you can show up in your life instead of avoiding it.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I hope you can take a moment to celebrate your success in reaching out to start a new relationship. In working with social anxiety, we'll consider the exceptions in your life—the times when you have connected with strangers, when you’ve entered into a new social environment, when you’ve stayed longer at a social event. We’ll bring curiosity to what made those experiences exceptional for you. We’ll then bring those differences, as well as, newly learned skills into corrective experiences in the therapy room and the least risky environments for you outside of therapy. We will likely use EMDR and somatic therapy approaches to work through the engrained difficult messages and bodily experiences of social anxiety from your past to increase your confidence in your capacity for present and future social connections.

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.

Sean Brennan
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Social Anxiety feels like a prison. It's too difficult to be your authentic self, and you feel lonely - but it's preferred over how it feels to be around other people. Informed by my own experience with social anxiety, what we will uncover is that social anxiety is a set of learned behaviors and social conditioning - which can be unlearned and unconditioned. If you're ready to stop being at war with your own nervous system - lets get to work!
