Social Anxiety therapists in Owosso, Michigan MI
Ciara Shellman
Therapist
As a dedicated therapist with a focus on social anxiety, I bring a compassionate, understanding approach to the challenges you might be facing. Social anxiety is more than just shyness; it’s a deep-seated fear of social situations that can hinder one’s ability to interact, work, and enjoy life. Leveraging the latest in therapeutic techniques and my understanding of the nuances of social anxiety, I offer a safe, supportive space for exploring these feelings. Together, we will work towards understanding the roots of your anxiety, developing coping strategies, and gradually expanding your comfort zone. My goal is to empower you to navigate social environments with confidence and ease, helping you to live a fuller, more engaging life.

5 Years Experience
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
People with social anxiety often have a number of self-defeating attitudes that underpin their social anxiety. First, they wrongly think they must perform perfectly well. They also usually think that they need the approval of significant others, that it is awful to experience disapproval and failure. They also tend to wrongly believe that rejection and failure prove they are inadequate as people. I teach you that yes there are practical implications of disapproval and failure, but there need not be unhealthy anxiety about these consequences. I teach healthy attitudes toward one's self, one's rejections and failures. I teach you to have a desire to be accepted by others and do well but to accept yourself unconditionally even when you are rejected and fail.
