Social Anxiety
Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety, like other anxieties, involves fear of situations that we can not be certain of the outcome. Social anxiety is different in that it is fear of others' perceptions of us and that they will negatively judge and evaluate us. CBT and exposure to these fears is essential to overcoming these beliefs, thoughts, and avoidance/escape behavioral patterns.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.

Michele Sitorus (Inner Peace Psychological Care)
Psychologist, Psy.D.
In therapy, you will learn to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs about social situations. Utilizing the cognitive-behavioral techniques I will help you develop coping strategies for managing anxiety symptoms, such as relaxation techniques and gradual exposure to feared social situations. Additionally, therapy may focus on improving social skills and communication, building self-confidence, and addressing underlying issues such as low self-esteem or past traumas that contribute to social anxiety.
