Brooklyn, New York therapist: Shayda Ewalt, marriage and family therapist
Social Anxiety

Shayda Ewalt

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social anxiety often develops from experiences of rejection, criticism, or feeling unsafe in relationships. It was not simply "shyness" but a protective response rooted in fear of judgment or harm. Therapy helps you understand the origins of these fears while building internal safety and confidence in relational spaces.

Christie Roe

Therapist, LMSW
Whatever your experience of social anxiety, I offer trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and somatic support to build your capacity for more clarity, choice, and connection, inside and out. One technique I often use is known as memory reconsolidation, which creates transformative, lasting change through an open yet orderly process of unlearning and relearning with our response-abilities.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Greta Klaber, marriage and family therapist
Social Anxiety

Greta Klaber

Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with social anxiety, I take a thoughtful, body-centered approach to help you better understand how anxiety shows up and what it’s trying to communicate. Together, we track your internal experience and develop tools for self-regulation—supporting your nervous system in moments of activation. We also explore the deeper beliefs that may underlie your anxiety, including fears around judgment, worth, or belonging. Through a combination of somatic awareness, parts work, and cognitive tools like reality testing, we begin to shift how you relate to social situations and build more flexibility, confidence, and connection in your day-to-day life.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Marina Rozenberg, MD, therapist
Social Anxiety

Marina Rozenberg, MD

Therapist, MD
Social anxiety can make you feel like you're constantly on edge, worrying about how others see you or fearing judgment, even in everyday situations. In psychodynamic therapy, we’ll explore the deeper emotional roots of these fears, often tied to past experiences or internalized messages about your worth and belonging. Together, we’ll work to uncover and understand the unconscious patterns driving your anxiety, helping you build greater self-acceptance and confidence in social interactions. Over time, you’ll feel more at ease in your own skin and less controlled by the fear of being judged.
