Tammara kamei
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC-MHSP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. Individuals may experience intense worry about being judged, embarrassed, criticized, or rejected in social situations. Our practice provides professional social anxiety counseling and anxiety therapy for individuals who struggle with social interactions, public speaking, meeting new people, workplace situations, school environments, relationships, or other social settings.
Social anxiety may contribute to avoidance, isolation, low self-confidence, excessive worry, physical anxiety symptoms, or difficulty developing meaningful relationships. Without support, these patterns can interfere with work, education, relationships, and everyday activities. We help clients identify anxiety triggers, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping and communication skills, strengthen confidence, and gradually become more comfortable navigating social situations. Through individualized therapy for social anxiety, we help clients work toward greater confidence, connection, and emotional freedom.

Sterling Heights is Macomb County's largest city and home to one of the largest Chaldean (Iraqi Christian) communities in the United States, as well as significant Arab-American, South Asian, and Eastern European populations, making it one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Michigan with correspondingly diverse therapy needs. Culturally competent and Arabic-speaking therapists are in significant demand, particularly for clients navigating immigration trauma, intergenerational family conflict between Chaldean community norms and American culture, and the mental health challenges of communities that have experienced significant displacement and loss. Henry Ford Health System and Ascension hospitals in the area provide behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. Common therapy concerns include immigration and displacement trauma, intergenerational family dynamics, acculturation stress, anxiety, depression, and the complex identity challenges of communities maintaining strong cultural and religious traditions in a new country.
