Social Anxiety
Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I work with social anxiety by helping clients understand the patterns that keep fear, self-doubt, and avoidance in place, while building confidence through values-aligned exposure and skill development. Our work focuses on strengthening self-trust, reducing over-monitoring, and learning how to show up authentically in social spaces in ways that you desire as the client. Therapy is practical, supportive, and paced to meet you where you are.

Social Anxiety
Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Social anxiety often shows up as a constant self-monitoring—replaying conversations, worrying about how you came across, or feeling tense before, during, and after social interactions. Many people assume this means they’re awkward or broken, when in reality it’s usually a nervous system that’s working overtime to stay safe. In therapy, we approach social anxiety with curiosity and compassion, helping you understand what your anxiety is trying to protect you from rather than forcing you to “just be more confident.”
My work with social anxiety focuses on easing the internal pressure rather than pushing you into uncomfortable situations before you’re ready. Together, we work on calming the body, softening self-judgment, and building trust in your ability to handle connection as it unfolds. Over time, social interactions begin to feel less like a performance and more like a shared experience—allowing you to show up as yourself with greater ease, presence, and self-acceptance

Social Anxiety
Dr. Sam Macy
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety can limit us personally and professionally, making life smaller and less-realized. I use an integrative therapeutic approach to help people feel more confident in social interactions, and more willing to take "good risks" towards a more expanded and empowered life.

Social Anxiety
Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel stressful, exhausting, or filled with self-conscious thoughts about how you are being perceived. I support clients in understanding the patterns of worry, avoidance, and self-criticism that often show up in social situations. In our work together, we focus on building awareness of these thoughts, developing practical coping strategies, and gradually increasing confidence in social settings at a pace that feels manageable. My goal is to help you feel more at ease in relationships and everyday interactions, while building a stronger sense of self-assurance and presence with others.
