Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can make the world feel smaller, often leading to avoidance of experiences that might otherwise bring meaning and connection. In our work together, we’ll take a gentle, supportive approach to help you befriend your anxiety rather than battle it. You’ll learn practical tools so that anxiety no longer takes the driver’s seat in your life. Instead of waiting for anxiety to disappear and putting your life on hold, we’ll focus on taking small, steady steps that allow you to re-engage with life and move toward what matters most to you.

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, LICSW, RN
An anxiety disorder is a medical condition that needs proper treatment and cannot be overcome simply through willpower or a change in attitude. At Bell Health, we will create an individualized treatment plan based on your needs, which may include medication, psychotherapy, or lifestyle changes.

Tin Huang
Pre-Licensed Professional, PsyD
I have significant experience helping clients overcome the debilitating effects of social anxiety, from fear of judgment to avoidance of social situations. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, providing a safe space to explore the thoughts and feelings that fuel your social fears. I also consider how cultural expectations and societal pressures can contribute to and intensify feelings of social anxiety.
Together, we'll identify triggers, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and gradually build confidence and practical skills for navigating social interactions.
Through this informed and supportive process, I empower clients to step out of isolation, connect authentically, and live more freely in social settings.

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.
