Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, racing thoughts, frozen silence, or fear of being judged. I help sensitive adults explore the roots of that fear and gently shift it using body-based practices, somatic therapy, and relational healing. Together, we build self-trust and regulation so you can feel more confident and connected without masking who you are.
