Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety is very common and very painful. Even though social anxiety is a common condition, each of us feels it in our own way. I have learned that social anxiety can best be treated with a combination of individual therapy and group therapy. At the beginning of individual therapy people are often reluctant to join a group. But even if you never choose to engage in group therapy, individual therapy can help. If you prefer, I can suggest a workbook for out of session help with social anxiety.

Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I have experience supporting clients in identifying where their social anxiety began and what limiting/self-defeating thoughts are linked to the challenges. From there, we will implement EMDR and/or IFS work to further explore and support the issues in order to help you live your life with more social freedoms.

Heather Watson-Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I help clients overcome social anxiety, including fear of judgment, avoidance of social situations, and difficulty speaking up. Using structured, evidence-based techniques, I gradually build confidence and comfort in social interactions. Clients learn practical skills to engage more fully and authentically in their personal and professional lives.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.
