Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming. You may worry about being judged, say little out of fear, or avoid situations altogether. Therapy can help you understand what fuels this anxiety and develop tools to feel calmer and more confident around others. Using a blend of mindfulness and trauma-informed techniques, we’ll work to reduce fear responses, increase emotional regulation, and build genuine self-assurance in social settings.
