Briana Marshall
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Social interactions can feel overwhelming, whether it’s overthinking what to say, worrying about being judged, or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. Many clients describe feeling stuck between wanting connection and fearing embarrassment or rejection. Together, we’ll explore the root of these fears while building tools to help you feel more confident and present in social situations. Over time, the goal is to help you engage with others in a way that feels more natural, less draining, and more aligned with who you are.

Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric illnesses affecting children and adults. Approximately, 40 million American adults suffer from anxiety disorders. Sadly, about one-third of those individuals suffering from an anxiety disorder receive treatment. Increase in public awareness is essential in informing the public that anxiety disorders are highly treatable.
If you experience anxiety that is persistent, seemingly uncontrollable, and overwhelming it may be indicative of an anxiety disorder. If it is an excessive, illogical fear of everyday situations, it can be disabling. When anxiety interferes with your daily activities, you may have an anxiety disorder.
Social anxiety may seem overwhelming and are stopping you from living your life in a manner that suits you, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Gratefully, many treatments and self-help strategies for social anxiety can help you significantly decrease your anxiety symptoms, manage anxiety attacks, and reclaim your life.

Social Anxiety
Sarah Koerner
Psychologist, PsyD
I have many years of experience working with a wide range of anxiety and anxiety disorders (including social anxiety). I regularly complete trainings in this area. I aim to help people reduce anxiety thought looping and bodily/nervous system activation so that they can do the things that are important to them. I am able to provide EMDR as a treatment option for people feeling really stuck with their trauma and/or anxiety. Sessions with me feel like a real conversation with clinical info and suggestions peppered in. I believe humor and joy are often useful to help shift perspective. My goal is for clients to learn how to live in the present so that they can engage more fully in their lives.

Matthew Weisskopf
Psychologist, PhD
I can assist clients with addressing social anxiety with cognitive behavioral therapy approaches. This approach addresses thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors that often underlie social anxiety. When these factors are shifted in a positive direction, this can have significant benefits for social anxiety.
