Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In assisting individuals with social anxiety issues, I provide a supportive and understanding environment to explore their concerns. Through therapy, we work on understanding the underlying factors contributing to their anxiety, such as negative beliefs or past experiences. I offer strategies to manage anxiety symptoms, including relaxation techniques, cognitive restructuring, and exposure therapy. Together, we practice social skills and gradually confront feared social situations, building confidence and reducing avoidance behaviors. The goal is to empower individuals to navigate social interactions with greater ease and enjoyment, ultimately improving their overall well-being and quality of life.

Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Are you someone who avoids certain social situations or endures them with significant difficulty? You may fear rejection, criticism or judgment and avoid certain social situations to try to keep these feelings at bay. Unfortunately, this avoidance makes social anxiety worse over time. You may notice that you continue to lose self-confidence and a sense of worth the more that you avoid others. As a specialist in treating social anxiety, I understand how challenging it can be to face these fears. I have worked with many client so to help them build insight into what contributes to their social anxiety. Once we have a deeper understanding of how social anxiety impacts you and in what situations it arises, I can help teach you strategies to begin to gradually face feared situations and increase your self-confidence over time.
