Mira Cymerman, Psychologist in Portland, ME

Social Anxiety

Persistent and intense fears of being watched, judged, or evaluated negatively by others in social or performance situations are very different than feeling shy or nervous. The fears are often out of proportion to the actual threat the situation poses. Common triggers may include: meeting new people; starting conversations; dating; eating or drinking in front of others; being the center of attention. Many individuals either avoid such situations, or endure them with significant distress. Together, we can explore how thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations reinforce each other when anxiety levels spike. Our goal will be to identify and challenge distorted beliefs, and then replace them with more accurate thoughts. In addition, reducing subtle avoidance tactics will help you come to realize that you can in fact handle these situations successfully.

Social Anxiety

Abelee Groff

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW

I work with adults struggling with social anxiety, shyness, or fear of judgment in personal, professional, or social settings. I help clients understand how patterns of worry, avoidance, and self-criticism develop and how they impact relationships, confidence, and daily life. I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to support emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build coping skills. Therapy emphasizes self-compassion, confidence, and practical strategies to navigate social situations, communicate effectively, and foster meaningful connections.

Authentically You Counseling

Treatment Center, LCMHC

Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference! I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all. Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!
