Emerge Counseling Solutions, LLC - Liz Overpeck
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, MA
Social anxiety is a commonly occurring mental health issue, but one that many people and providers do not understand. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to help you reshape thinking patterns and particular behaviors in order to create new adaptive experiences and new beliefs which reduce anxiety and increase connection.

Therapist, MSW, Registered Clinical Social Work Intern
My approach with social anxiety is understanding your symptoms from a holistic perspective.

We will use somatic-based mindfulness practices to connect to the physical sensations for a deeper understanding.

Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
Children and adolescents suffer intense distress when affected by social anxiety. They can manifest their discomfort by avoiding anxiety-inducing situations whenever anxiety feelings are triggered.
Young kids can express their discomfort by a rapid change in mood, tantrums, and crying; older ones may experience panic reactions and physical signs like shortness of breath shaking, sweating, stomachaches and nausea.
One of the most significant consequences of social anxiety is that it can prevent individuals from taking risks and trying new things, ultimately blocking them from reaching their full potential.
Talking to a therapist about their feelings and learning techniques to deal with social anxiety allows kids to feel less overwhelmed, less upset and scared, and eventually more in control of themselves and their environment
