Chicago, Illinois therapist: Tina Mavalankar, licensed clinical social worker
Social Anxiety

Tina Mavalankar

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with clients who struggle with social anxiety, including fear of judgment, overanalyzing interactions, difficulty speaking up, people-pleasing, or avoiding social situations altogether. Using a warm, collaborative approach grounded in CBT, exposure-based strategies, ACT, and mindfulness, I help clients understand the cycles that keep social anxiety going and gently build confidence through real-world practice. We focus on shifting self-critical inner dialogue, increasing self-compassion, strengthening boundaries, and learning how to stay present instead of scanning for threat. My goal is to help clients feel more at ease being themselves, form authentic connections, and participate in their lives without fear running the decision-making.
