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.

Dr Pamela Helen Polcyn
Marriage and Family Therapist, Phd, MFT
Social anxiety or social phobia make living in the world a challenge. Fear of judgment and feeling embarrassed about possible inappropriate behavior or perceived failures to perform up to some standard make it difficult to function many social situations. Confidence can be regained.

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
A number of people in this generation experience social anxiety. You are not alone in that. The reliance on social media, the effect of covid-era lockdowns, depression, anxiety and a general sense of low self-esteem can all be contributing factors to being in social situations that feel overwhelming. We can examine and determine the most reasonable ways to diminish or eliminate social anxiety through behavioral change, EMDR and talk therapy.

Temecula is a southwest Riverside County city known for its wine country, old-town tourism, and master-planned family neighborhoods, with many residents commuting long distances to San Diego and Orange County jobs. Mental health needs center on commute and family strain, adolescent pressure in achievement-minded schools, and the isolation that can accompany bedroom-community life. A growing local practitioner base and telehealth serve the valley.
