Social anxiety is building and building in our society. Fortunately there are applicable cognitive shifts and exposure techniques to overcome this challenging disorder.
Therapy provides individuals with the tools, support, and guidance they need to effectively manage and overcome social anxiety, leading to increased confidence, improved social relationships, and a greater sense of well-being and fulfillment in life. We will challenge your negative thoughts and beliefs, learn coping strategies that will help you in social situations, and work to build your self-esteem and confidence so you can navigate social interactions with greater ease and comfort.
I address social anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and role-playing techniques to help you manage fears related to social interactions. My approach focuses on creating a relaxed and approachable environment where you feel supported and understood. By combining effective strategies with a touch of humor, I aim to make our sessions both practical and comfortable. If you’re ready to tackle social anxiety and improve your confidence in social situations, let’s connect and start working on your goals.
Social anxiety is an intense fear of social situations where one might be judged or scrutinized by others. This can lead to avoidance of social interactions, isolation, severe anxiety, and physical symptoms like sweating, trembling, and nausea.
I help my clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to social anxiety. Through techniques like cognitive restructuring and gradual exposure to feared situations, I help clients build confidence and improve their ability to engage in social interactions.
In treating social anxiety, I start by understanding specific fears and triggers through assessment. Using cognitive restructuring and exposure therapy, I help clients challenge irrational thoughts and gradually face social situations, developing personalized strategies to manage anxiety and build confidence.
Social anxiety is a common part of daily life for many people. When it interferes with one's capacity to maintain meaningful relationships, psychotherapy can help. I draw from relational, cognitive and mindfulness-based approaches to challenge patterns of avoidance related to social anxiety.

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.
