Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Social anxiety can be painful and isolating, but it doesn't have to be. I understand why this is one of people's top fears. Talking in therapy about the worries you have and learning new ways to practice social skills as well as learning more accurate self talk and self appraisal can increase confidence and improve your social life.

Breaking the Cycle of Social Anxiety
Social anxiety often creates a "safety cycle" where we avoid situations to stay safe, which unintentionally makes the fear grow stronger. We help you break that cycle using a combination of clinical expertise and real-world tools.
Our Specialized Approach
Because social anxiety affects the mind, body, and behavior, we use a multi-dimensional approach to treatment:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To identify and challenge the "mind-reading" thoughts that tell you others are judging you.
DBT & Mindfulness: To manage the physical symptoms of anxiety (like racing heart or sweating) in the moment

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you worry about saying just the *right* thing on a first date? Do you replay conversations you had with co-workers or your partner and beat yourself up because you didn't say something perfectly? Do you feel like you have to rehearse over and over what you're going to say before you say it so you don't feel rejected or stupid? These are all common indicators of social anxiety and they don't have to keep ruling your life. It is possible to let go of needing to show up perfectly in conversations and not beat yourself up. Let me show you how.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who experience social anxiety, fear of judgment, or discomfort in social or professional situations. Social anxiety often involves more than shyness; it can reflect deeper concerns about acceptance, belonging, or fear of exposure in relationships with others.
My work is grounded in the belief that anxiety develops within relational experience. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a space to explore how fears of evaluation or rejection have developed and how they continue to shape interactions with others. Through increased understanding, individuals often find greater freedom to engage socially in ways that feel more natural and less constrained by fear.
I also work with couples who wish to understand how social anxiety affects communication and relational connection.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Being afraid of social situations severely restricts our ability to find and form relationships with others, and essential part of being a person. Having support in dealing with this problem can help you become more confident, learn social skills, and being less fearful of social situations.

Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee
The root of social anxiety tends to be our beliefs about what other people will think of us or whether they are safe with others. This is different than just introverted people. Social anxiety can affect a great many areas of your life but it is something that can be treated and open up your world.
