Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have extensive experience working with adults who experience social anxiety, whether it is a primary concern or part of a broader pattern of anxiety, perfectionism, or self-doubt. I help clients address fear of judgment, rejection, or embarrassment, as well as overthinking social interactions and replaying them afterward, while building greater confidence and freedom to engage with others without constant self-monitoring.

Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming. I help clients understand their fears, reduce avoidance, and build the confidence to connect more comfortably with others.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety, like other anxieties, involves fear of situations that we can not be certain of the outcome. Social anxiety is different in that it is fear of others' perceptions of us and that they will negatively judge and evaluate us. CBT and exposure to these fears is essential to overcoming these beliefs, thoughts, and avoidance/escape behavioral patterns.

Maureen O'Donnell
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
Socializing can be difficult if you have ADHD or a history of trauma. With ADHD, you may have tendencies to interrupt or blurt out things, and then develop self-doubt in social situations, feeling you need to "rein it in". Trauma can be isolating, wondering if others can really understand or relate to you. My approach to social anxiety is to work on skills to manage the anxiety first, including exploring core beliefs and nervous system reactions, and then trying these skills in situations that feel most safe.
