Social Anxiety
Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety is something that impacts all of us. For many, there’s a general sense of dread or feeling of being unsafe that holds us back from life. For some, social anxiety is a significant barrier to creating connection with others. Anxiety can show up in our thoughts as well as our bodies, and it can prevent us from living the life we want. The most important thing to remember when it comes to anxiety is that most of our fearful thoughts are false. Your brain sends a compelling signal that you’re in mortal danger, but most times the stakes just aren’t that high. Learn how to challenge that signal and lead a richer, more full life.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Cognitive behavioral therapy uses a variety of direct methods to help patients modify their thoughts and emotional reactions to stressors like social situations. Using psychodynamic techniques, we will work together to gain insight into the emotional roots of unhealthy attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. Based on the idea that avoiding the things we fear tends to reinforce anxiety, exposure therapy encourages people to encounter the sources of their anxieties in a controlled, deliberate way.

Ilah Brock - Central Valley Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht
Is your situation one that keeps you from social gatherings? Even if you desire to attend yet, you just can't seem to get passed actually "GOING" - or just being in public, creating conversation with people known or unknown. And after over a year of many people being in isolation - this can be a difficult situation to over come. It is not impossible. It is VERY possible for you to achieve this self directed - goal ....
Some conditions may warrant a medical or menthal health awareness referral.
