Jeffrey Gianelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social Anxiety is one of the toughest things to struggle with because it hits us right where things matter most- our connections with others. It can feel like an oppressive force that won't allow you to be who you are or to experience the connections with others that you would like. However, oftentimes it comes from a place of hurt and trauma, or even just the negative things we learned to tell ourselves based on growing up in a society where we are constantly comparing ourselves to others. But, we can learn to get in touch with the wounded and hurt parts or ourselves, the self critical and judgmental parts, and help them to feel more safe and at ease. Social Anxiety does not have to rule your life! There are some many different tools and skills. You can learn to work with it instead of against yourself.
