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.

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.

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.

Dr. Keri Downs specializes in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with social anxiety. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to help clients manage and overcome their social anxiety.
