Julie Harris
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Social situations can feel overwhelming, exhausting, or just plain scary. I help people with social anxiety learn to listen to and work with their anxiety instead of trying to get rid of it. What is your anxiety trying to tell you? How is it trying to help? Together we can get curious, access your inner strengths, and meet the challenges of social situations with more ease.

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Social anxiety can make everyday situations—meeting new people, speaking up at work, or even attending social gatherings—feel overwhelming. You may find yourself avoiding opportunities, worrying about being judged, or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. In therapy, I provide a safe and supportive space to reduce fear, build confidence, and practice skills that help you feel more comfortable in social situations. Together, we’ll work on calming anxious thoughts, strengthening self-esteem, and creating strategies so you can connect more freely and fully with others.

Dr. Jessica De Leon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Social anxiety can make connecting with others feel exhausting, frightening, or filled with self-consciousness.

Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
Social anxiety is one of my favorite and most rewarding areas of practice. Grounded in a hugely successful protocol with decades of strong empirical support, my approach using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you break free from the overwhelming self-consciousness and fear of judgment that keep you isolated. Together, we work to identify and challenge the negative thought patterns and safety behaviors that heighten social distress. Through structured, gradual exposure to feared social situations in a safe and supportive environment, you will build genuine confidence, quiet the internal critic, and cultivate the deep, meaningful connections you deserve.
