Michael Andrew Brennan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety can make connection feel risky, exhausting, or impossible. Therapy can help you understand the fears underneath it and practice new ways of relating to yourself and others. We’ll work toward more ease, confidence, and freedom in social situations.

Allyson Stephens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
It can be hard to engage socially especially if we have unresolved trauma. I want to help give you the tools to feel comfortable in social situations so you can get the support you deserve. I use IFS, EMDR, Somatic Therapy, CBT, and DBT for this issue.

Shannon Kossick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC
Social anxiety often has roots deeper than shyness or introversion. It's usually connected to early experiences of judgment, humiliation, or not feeling safe to be yourself around others. I use IFS to understand the parts of you that brace for evaluation, and EMDR to process the experiences that taught you to shrink. The goal is genuine ease, not just pushing through.

Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Through specialized virtual assessments, I help individuals understand how social anxiety impacts their cognitive functioning, daily performance, and overall quality of life, providing comprehensive evaluations from the privacy and comfort of home. My approach to social anxiety assessment goes beyond symptom identification, examining how anxiety affects attention, memory, decision-making, and executive functioning—crucial insights for developing effective treatment strategies. With extensive experience evaluating the intersection of anxiety and cognitive performance, I provide detailed assessments that differentiate social anxiety from other conditions, identify specific triggers and patterns, and offer evidence-based recommendations for therapy, accommodations, and coping strategies tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.
