Social Anxiety
CBT Center
Psychologist, ABPP, A-CBT
Social anxiety is more than being shy. It's the rehearsing, the replaying, the avoiding, the exhausting mental commentary that kicks in anytime other people are involved. At The CBT Center, we specialize in evidence-based treatment for social anxiety, including CBT and exposure therapy. We help patients actually do the things they've been avoiding and find out that the outcome is usually way less catastrophic than their brain predicted. You don't have to keep shrinking to feel safe.

Social Anxiety
Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It is incredibly exhausting to walk into a room and instantly feel like everyone is judging you, or to spend hours overthinking a casual conversation after it’s already over. Social anxiety loves to make you feel isolated and keep you playing small to avoid embarrassment. We will work together to lower that intense internal pressure, quiet the fear of rejection, and build realistic comfort so you can show up in social or professional spaces without your nervous system going into overdrive.
