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.

Nader Mikhail
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht.
Rehearsing conversations in your head, replaying them for hours afterward, skipping events you'd actually like to go to? Hypnotherapy targets the automatic fear response behind social anxiety and builds a calmer, more confident default, so speaking up and being seen feel easier. Free 15-minute consultation.

Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Through specialized virtual assessments, I help individuals understand how social anxiety impacts their cognitive functioning, daily performance, and overall quality of life, providing comprehensive evaluations from the privacy and comfort of home. My approach to social anxiety assessment goes beyond symptom identification, examining how anxiety affects attention, memory, decision-making, and executive functioning—crucial insights for developing effective treatment strategies. With extensive experience evaluating the intersection of anxiety and cognitive performance, I provide detailed assessments that differentiate social anxiety from other conditions, identify specific triggers and patterns, and offer evidence-based recommendations for therapy, accommodations, and coping strategies tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

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.
