Danny Boylan
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MS, NCC, CRC
Social anxiety can be deeply uncomfortable and often misunderstood. It’s not simply shyness or a lack of social skills, but a heightened sensitivity to evaluation, rejection, or disapproval that can make social situations feel exhausting, tense, or even threatening. Many people with social anxiety spend a great deal of energy monitoring themselves, anticipating how others might perceive them, or replaying interactions long after they’ve ended.
In my work with social anxiety, I view these experiences as understandable responses that often develop in relational contexts where it felt important to stay vigilant, perform correctly, or avoid drawing negative attention. Therapy can become a place to explore how these patterns formed, what they are trying to protect you from, and how they continue to shape your relationships and sense of self today.
Together, we may work on gently loosening the grip of self-criticism, fear of judgment, and internal pressure to “get it right.” This often involves cultivating greater self-compassion, increasing tolerance for discomfort, and developing a more grounded relationship with yourself in social settings. The goal is not to force confidence or eliminate anxiety entirely, but to help you feel freer, more authentic, and less constrained by fear in your interactions with others.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Anxiety isn’t just “worry.” It’s the mind working overtime to protect you — often in ways that leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Social anxiety, in particular, can make even simple interactions feel loaded with risk, self-doubt, or shame. You might find yourself rehearsing conversations before they happen, overanalyzing them after, or avoiding them altogether.
In our work together, we look beneath the symptoms. Instead of just learning how to manage your anxiety, we explore what it’s trying to protect you from — and why it learned to speak so loudly. I help clients slow down their inner experience, tune into the body, and begin to relate to anxiety with curiosity rather than fear.
Together, we’ll build new internal pathways rooted in safety, self-compassion, and presence. You don’t have to be “fearless” to live a full, connected life. You just have to stop fighting yourself.
