Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety is not shyness. It is the experience of being watched by a judge who lives inside your own head — a judge who arrived long before you ever chose to listen to it. Every room becomes a performance. Every interaction is graded. The exhaustion is not from other people. It is from the constant labor of self-surveillance. Therapy works not by teaching you to ignore the judge but by understanding whose voice it actually is, and why it was installed in the first place.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Social anxiety reflects fears of visibility, judgment, and emotional exposure. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration with somatic awareness to understand how relational fear is held in both the body and inner life. This process supports greater confidence, presence, and emotional freedom in social and intimate situations.

Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions — networking, speaking up at work, even making a phone call — feel like high-stakes performances. If you find yourself rehearsing conversations, avoiding situations where you might be judged, or replaying interactions long after they're over, you're not alone. I use cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based strategies to help you understand what's driving the avoidance and gradually reclaim the parts of your life anxiety has taken over. We work at your pace, with concrete goals, so progress feels real — not theoretical. For many clients, social anxiety also disrupts sleep, and I'm uniquely positioned to address both.
