Social Anxiety
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with thoughtful, high‑achieving adults, often sensitive or highly self‑aware, who struggle with social anxiety. You may care deeply about connection but find that being around others brings up a lot of worry, overthinking, or dread. On the outside, you may seem capable and composed; inside, it can feel like a constant evaluation of how you are coming across. Social anxiety can feel like living in your head while your body is in the room. I work extensively with social anxiety in high‑responsibility adults and know how consuming it can feel, even when no one else sees it.
It can look like replaying conversations and worrying you said the wrong thing; avoiding gatherings, calls, or new situations because they feel too intense; fear of being judged, embarrassed, or seen as awkward or boring; difficulty speaking up in groups, at work, or in class; feeling like you do not quite know the rules that other people seem to follow; or wanting close relationships but pulling back when things get more vulnerable. Over time, this can lead to isolation, loneliness, or feeling stuck in patterns you do not want.
In our work together, we get curious about where this started and how it shows up now. We make room for the part of you that is trying to keep you safe by staying small or hidden. From there, we explore small, doable steps toward more ease and authenticity with the people and situations that matter most to you, so you do not have to choose between protecting yourself and having the connections you want.

Social Anxiety
Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals who experience social anxiety, self-consciousness, fear of judgment, or difficulty feeling comfortable and confident around others. Together, we explore the deeper beliefs, past experiences, attachment patterns, and nervous-system responses that may contribute to feeling unsafe, exposed, or afraid of being rejected or misunderstood. Through a trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach, I help clients develop greater internal safety, self-trust, emotional regulation, and confidence in their ability to navigate relationships and social situations. The goal is not to change who you are, but to help you feel more comfortable being fully yourself without constantly monitoring, judging, or questioning how you are being perceived.

Rachele Epp
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, EMDR Certified Therapist™
Social anxiety can make social situations feel overwhelming, often leading to avoidance or fear of judgment. I can help you overcome this through exposure therapy, where we gradually face social situations to reduce anxiety. I use CBT, which helps challenge negative thoughts and build confidence, and EMDR, which processes past experiences that fuel anxiety. These approaches can empower you to feel more comfortable and in control in social settings.

Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach.
