Social Anxiety
Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals understand social anxiety and loosen its grip, easing distress while making room for genuine connection. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening at and beneath the surface—anticipatory fear, self-monitoring, and the meanings carried from past experience—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less avoidance and second-guessing, more ease, choice, and confidence in relating to others.

Social Anxiety
Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming. You may worry about being judged, say little out of fear, or avoid situations altogether. Therapy can help you understand what fuels this anxiety and develop tools to feel calmer and more confident around others. Using a blend of mindfulness and trauma-informed techniques, we’ll work to reduce fear responses, increase emotional regulation, and build genuine self-assurance in social settings.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Are you overanalyzing every interaction, avoiding social situations, or unable to enjoy social situations because your mind is telling you how awkward you are? Do you feel judged by others who don't understand? Social anxiety can truly be overwhelming. I provide a warm and collaborative therapy where we work on reducing self-criticism, building confidence, and helping you develop practical skills to be able to do the things you want to do and the things you need to do. With the right treatment, social anxiety can be kicked out of the driver's seat, so you are free to guide your life in the directions you most want to go.

Lincoln is home to the University of Nebraska and serves as Nebraska's state capital, giving it a demographic character — young, educated, and government-oriented — that generates consistent demand for therapists working with academic stress, young adult identity, and the pressures of public service careers. The city has a growing Sudanese, Somali, and Latino refugee and immigrant community that creates meaningful demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists who work with resettlement stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Bryan Health and CHI Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Lincoln's relative affordability and tight-knit community character give it a therapy culture that values accessibility and practical, evidence-based approaches.
