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.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Social anxiety is a very common condition that can result in avoidance and/or avoidance and also a lot of discomfort when being or even thinking of being in a social situation including 1 on 1, small and large group situations. Most individuals feel they don't know what to say or how to act and will be shunned, avoided or rejected. I provide social skills training to improve confidence, relaxation skills to reduce anxiety and strategies to change negative thinking patterns with healthy and adaptive ones. Whether it's becoming more comfortable and effective in asking someone on a date, socializing at a party or giving a speech at work, I can help.

Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. Fear of judgment, overthinking conversations, or avoiding social situations can limit connection.

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.

Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Social anxiety in high-performing men is uniquely paradoxical — these are men who can command a boardroom or lead a crew but privately dread casual social situations, feel certain they're being judged, or perform confidence they don't actually feel underneath. I work with men navigating social anxiety through Character Driven Therapy, examining the self-perception and inner critic driving the anxiety and building a more grounded internal identity that doesn't require constant monitoring of how others are responding. The goal is genuine ease in social situations — not a performance of ease that costs you every time.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
College can be an exciting time—but it can also bring intense pressure to fit in, make friends, and find your place. If social situations leave you feeling anxious, self-conscious, or worried about being judged, you’re not alone. Many students quietly struggle with these same feelings. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand your anxiety, build coping skills, and increase your confidence so you can feel more at ease connecting with others and fully engaging in college life.
