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.

JENNIFER ZUNDEL
Life Coach, Certified Conscious Uncoupling Coach | Certified Calling in "The One" Coach
At it's core, social anxiety indicates a challenge with disempowered relationships, which are affecting our sense of ourselves, and how we assume others feel about us, and what we feel is possible or not possible for us. My coaching works specifically to shift this core sense of self, and provides skills and tools to transform our experience and relationships with others.

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.
