Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC, PEL
As a therapist specializing in social anxiety, I help clients navigate the fear of judgment, rejection, or embarrassment that can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. Social anxiety often hides behind avoidance, perfectionism, or self-criticism—and my role is to gently uncover those patterns and replace them with confidence, self-compassion, and practical coping tools.
Using a blend of cognitive-behavioral techniques, exposure work, and emotional regulation strategies, I support clients in building comfort with social situations at their own pace. Whether it's speaking up in meetings, attending social events, or simply making eye contact, I offer a safe space to practice, reflect, and grow. My goal is to help individuals reconnect with others—not through forced performance, but through authentic presence.

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.

Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Through specialized virtual assessments, I help individuals understand how social anxiety impacts their cognitive functioning, daily performance, and overall quality of life, providing comprehensive evaluations from the privacy and comfort of home. My approach to social anxiety assessment goes beyond symptom identification, examining how anxiety affects attention, memory, decision-making, and executive functioning—crucial insights for developing effective treatment strategies. With extensive experience evaluating the intersection of anxiety and cognitive performance, I provide detailed assessments that differentiate social anxiety from other conditions, identify specific triggers and patterns, and offer evidence-based recommendations for therapy, accommodations, and coping strategies tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

What an honor it is to be a supportive companion on your path to deeper wellness!
