Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
I work with individuals struggling with social anxiety by helping them understand the fear patterns, self-critical thinking, and nervous system responses that make social situations feel overwhelming. Together, we build practical skills to regulate anxiety, challenge distorted beliefs about judgment or rejection, and gradually increase confident engagement in social and professional settings. My goal is to help clients move from avoidance to presence, developing genuine confidence rather than performing or hiding.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can be like nesting dolls: the anxiety and avoidance of social situations creates new problems to feel anxious about, and the challenges multiply. It helps to have a place to talk through what is making you anxious today while also working to understand how past experiences are contributing to present symptoms. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can learn techniques to reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Lisa Taylor-Austin
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, LMHC, CFMHE, CFBA, LCPC, LCMHC
Social anxiety responds very well to evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and gradual exposure. In our work together, we would take a thoughtful and structured approach—identifying the thoughts and patterns that contribute to anxiety while slowly building comfort and confidence in social situations. Over time, this process can help you feel more at ease, capable, and self-assured in your interactions with others.

Anna Diamantis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, PMH-C
Social anxiety can keep you quiet, on the sidelines, or rehearsing every conversation because of fear of judgment or embarrassment. I use cognitive behavioral therapy and gradual exposure to help you move step by step toward the situations that matter most to you. The goal is not to become a different person, but to feel freer to participate in the relationships and opportunities you care about.

Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety is very common and very painful. Even though social anxiety is a common condition, each of us feels it in our own way. I have learned that social anxiety can best be treated with a combination of individual therapy and group therapy. At the beginning of individual therapy people are often reluctant to join a group. But even if you never choose to engage in group therapy, individual therapy can help. If you prefer, I can suggest a workbook for out of session help with social anxiety.

Social anxiety can block us from the way we would like to live our lives. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy provide many approaches to decreasing social anxiety.
