Social Anxiety
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a haven for those who find themselves shadowed by social anxiety. I understand the quiet turmoil of feeling perpetually on the outside, the racing heart in social situations, and the persistent fear of judgment. With empathy and gentle guidance, I work alongside my clients to unravel the complex emotions and thoughts that fuel their anxiety. Our journey together focuses on building confidence, developing coping strategies, and gently stretching the boundaries of comfort zones. It's about transforming the fear of connection into a celebration of your unique self in the social tapestry, enabling you to step into the world with a newfound sense of belonging and ease.

Daniel Snow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Please also see the description under 'anxiety or fears'. Social anxiety can hamper the trajectory of life- not meeting people you could have met, not having friends that could have been there for you, and reinforcing anxiety in all its forms while increasing isolation. It is tied to self-judgment, fear of embarrassment, endless 'playbacks' of conversations in the mind, and memories of other situations. But like anxiety in general, it is something that can be overcome. Sometimes we find that what we think of as scary to the point of being unapproachable is much more tame and harmless than we expected, once we get a closer look at the thing we fear.
