Tracy Hadel
Counselor/Therapist, LSCSW
Social anxiety can be lessened with EMDR and cognitive behavioral techniques. Somatic yoga techniques can also help calm the mind and body, and help us become physically more aware of triggers and thoughts that hinder progress.

Jamie Roach
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, MDiv, NCC
Social anxiety often comes with the feeling of being constantly watched or judged. I help you understand this “internalized spotlight” and the nervous-system responses driving it. Through compassionate awareness, gradual exposure, and grounding practices, we work toward greater ease, confidence, and freedom in social settings.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Social anxiety often involves more than shyness. It can include fear of judgment, self-consciousness, anticipatory worry, or feeling “on edge” in social or professional situations. Even when individuals understand that their fears may be exaggerated, the emotional response can feel automatic and difficult to control.
My approach to working with social anxiety is personalized and collaborative. Hypnosis helps address the subconscious patterns that influence how the mind and body respond in social settings. Rather than using scripted techniques, sessions are tailored to the individual’s goals and real-life situations, helping reduce anxiety, build confidence, and develop a greater sense of ease during interactions.
Clients commonly seek hypnosis for social anxiety related to public speaking, meetings, social gatherings, dating, or workplace interactions. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that allows clients to remain aware and in control while learning to respond more calmly and confidently.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help clients feel more comfortable, present, and self-assured in social situations.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients manage social anxiety, performance anxiety, fear of judgment, and discomfort in professional or personal interactions. Many clients overthink what they said, worry about being misunderstood, or feel pressure to appear confident even when they feel anxious inside. In therapy, we work on reducing avoidance, challenging self-critical thoughts, building confidence, and developing more authentic ways of relating to others. My goal is to help clients feel more comfortable, present, and confident in social situations.
