Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Do you find yourself afraid of what others will say or think? Do these fears keep you from living out loud? Maybe you feel social anxiety only in certain situations, and not in others. Regardless, when social anxiety is high, many people find that their life gets smaller, or they get quieter - usually when it matters most. We can focus on learning ways to overcome social anxiety through patience and skill building, but always for a purpose - to live more in line with what matters.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
True social anxiety is debilitating, overwhelming, and draining. It is also painful for those who want to have meaningful relationships, but as of yet, can't cope with the ongoing effort entailed to make it happen. Therapy will examine your specific trigger thoughts and situations, problematic recurring patterns, and identify reasonable goals for you to improve upon your comfort level and relationships.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.
