The dread before a meeting, the replaying of a conversation for hours afterward, the avoidance that slowly shrinks your world: social anxiety is exhausting, and it’s very treatable. We use CBT and gradual, collaborative exposure to help you feel more at ease around others. You set the pace, and we’ll never push you past what you’re ready for.

As your therapist, I can help you understand the underlying patterns of your social anxiety and develop practical strategies to manage symptoms like racing thoughts and physical discomfort in social situations. I provide a safe, supportive environment where you can learn and practice new social skills and build confidence in interactions that currently feel overwhelming. My goal is to help you break free from avoidance behaviors and develop a more balanced perspective about social situations, allowing you to engage more fully in relationships and activities that matter to you. With consistent practice and support, you can learn to navigate social settings with greater ease and authenticity.

Andrew Goldin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LAC
I work with men who have social anxiety and want to make changes in their lives. Many of my clients report that symptoms of their anxiety, particularly predicting how social situations may go wrong or analyzing past interactions, interfere in their relationships and productivity. They share a feeling that these symptoms lead to thoughts and behaviors that are inconsistent with their values. Some men share a concern that worrying and preparing can be a strength in some aspects of their lives but gets in the way of how they want to be perceived in other areas. I work with men with social anxiety to understand the contributing factors and the ways in which patterns in their thinking lead to reactions they want to avoid. I also work with them to better understand anxiety and to explain it to others in their lives so the strategies and supports they're putting in place are understood and appreciated.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients manage their social anxiety. People can be unpredictable and rejecting. For someone that is different, who struggles to pick up on subtle social cues, or who has social communication differences, interacting with others can be tiring and painful. Yet, so many of us are social creatures and get lonely. I enjoy helping clients build a supportive community, find their tribe, and feel more confident interacting with others.

Ryan Ramsey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Therapy with me is relaxed, conversational, and goes at your pace. It's centered around helping you open up and explore all of the stresses you've been carrying, and all the stuff that's happened to you that you want to talk about.
My goal, first and foremost, is to help you feel comfortable opening up about yourself. This is a space where it's safe for you to do that. I'm going to listen to you, give you real feedback, and help you, through the course of talking, feel more comfortable just being yourself. I think that's the foundation of good therapy.
We'll also look at how patterns may keep showing up in your life again and again, work to get to the root cause of some of those patterns, and work to change how you think, how you relate to yourself, and how you relate to other people, so that you have more choice in how you engage with your life.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We look under the hood to find the culprit behind social anxiety then customize your hypnotic programming to rewire your brain in more desirable ways, so your thinking and behaviors are aligned with your new intention. We can also use breathwork, tapping, EMT, regression, IFS, NLP, and other frameworks to get you there. Often we will regress to the root cause memory behind the social anxiety and give the inner child a chance to release emotions and words that have been depleting you of life force energy. With this, we process and reframe the underlying emotions and beliefs to the new way of being. This involves a nervous system reset, and tools you'll gain include quick practices you can do when triggered or before important social events that regulate your emotions and program in a sense of overall calmness and peace. Overall, we retun you to safety at all times and show your nervous system, limbic brain, and endocrine system that you are not in danger.

Alison deLassus
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can be incredibly exhausting and frustrating, and it operates like a cycle - the more you avoid certain people/places, the more anxious you feel about those people/places. I specialize in helping people find freedom from the cycles of social anxiety and expand their lives again. I use a combination of IFS/ parts work, Exposure and Response Prevention, and DBT. This approach helps us build a toolbox of skills, while also deepening self-understanding and self-compassion.

Naya Clinics Denver
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselors
Anxiety is a state of feeling afraid of a future, unknown, or ambiguous threat. It is often characterized by certain physiological symptoms, along with doubt concerning the nature of the threat and our ability to handle it. Some anxiety is a normal part of life. In fact, it is necessary for our survival and peak performance. After all, the anxiety you feel before an interview or a performance can motivate you to be prepared, vigilant, and focused. However, if anxiety persists beyond the threat or challenge, it begins to lose its benefits. An unhealthy level of anxiety can paralyze you and leave you unable to function in the most basic tasks. If your anxiety is persisting and getting worse, this could qualify as an anxiety disorder, and you should consider counseling for anxiety.

Hannah Shoshana Dresdner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
There are so many reasons why social anxiety arises, many of which stem from core experiences feeling unsafe or unseen by others at a young age. Some are inhereted patterns based on how you were raised, or beliefs imposed on you by those around you. Regardless of how social anxiety came to be, I help you to identify the root cause and work through it utilizing EMDR, parts work, somatic approaches, and/or family constellations, so you can feel safe and secure in social situations.

Jamie Andersen, M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Woodland Counseling
Social Anxiety is more than just shyness. Are you extremely afraid of being judged by others? Are you very self-conscious in everyday social situations? Do you avoid meeting new people? If you have been feeling this way for at least six months and these feelings make it hard for you to do everyday tasks—such as talking to people at work or school—you may have a social anxiety disorder. I will partner with you to treat your social anxiety. Treatments include CBT Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) depending on what works best for you. Social anxiety disorder (also known as social phobia) is one of the most common psychiatric disorders. Although sometimes dismissed as shyness, social anxiety disorder can cause crippling fear that interferes with school attendance, work performance, and relationships. It affects about 7% of Americans in any given year, and about 12% at some point in their lives.

Katie Steinert
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Social anxiety feels devastating. The constant fear of judgement, worrying that others can see that you are anxious, and the frustrating physical symptoms (pounding heart, trembling, sweating, or blushing) can be enough to make you feel hopeless, maybe even depressed. Let's explore how your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions interact to power your social anxiety. You CAN learn to interact with your anxiety in a more productive way. I believe that every individual struggling with social anxiety can learn to re-engage in their lives and reduce the impact that it has on their relationships and self-esteem.
