Hope Infusion Counseling & Consulting, LLC, Cathy Arrington, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MFT, CPCS
Social anxiety can often cause discomfort around other people and in many levels. Luckily, there are ways to address these different levels including exploration of your resilience, limits, thoughts and actions in order to formulate a plan that works at your pace. You will never be expected to jump in and start talking to those who make you uncomfortable. Instead, you will be fully aware of options that are in reach and at your comfort level in order to make an informed decision when needing to be around others.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety is not shyness. It is the experience of being watched by a judge who lives inside your own head — a judge who arrived long before you ever chose to listen to it. Every room becomes a performance. Every interaction is graded. The exhaustion is not from other people. It is from the constant labor of self-surveillance. Therapy works not by teaching you to ignore the judge but by understanding whose voice it actually is, and why it was installed in the first place.

David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for social anxiety, I help you identify and challenge the fear of being judged or scrutinized by others in social or performance situations. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe self-critical thoughts while teaching you practical social skills and grounding techniques to manage physical discomfort. Through gradual, supportive exposure to social settings, I work with you to build genuine self-confidence and reduce the need for avoidance or safety behaviors.
