Social Anxiety
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.

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.

Social Anxiety
Julie Cochrane - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist, CCP
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coach, Safe Conversations Facilitator
Social anxiety is the body responding to social situations as if they were genuinely dangerous. It is not shyness and it is not a character flaw. It is a subconscious pattern, usually formed early, that learned to brace and self-monitor in the presence of other people. RTT works directly with the moment that pattern was formed and updates it. Once the threat signal quietens, social situations stop feeling like a performance and start feeling like, well, situations. I work with adults who have tried talking therapy and exposure work and want something that addresses the underlying wiring rather than just managing the surface symptoms.

Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can make interactions feel intimidating and exhausting, leading to avoidance and self-doubt. I work with individuals to understand the thoughts and fears driving social anxiety and develop skills to manage discomfort in social situations. Therapy helps build confidence, improve communication, and foster more meaningful connections with others.
