Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Social anxiety is more than shyness. It can leave you overthinking conversations, worrying about how you're perceived, or holding yourself back from the relationships and experiences you want. Therapy can help you understand the fears beneath the anxiety, quiet the voice of self-consciousness, and feel more confident showing up as your authentic self.

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.

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.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety can quietly shape how you move through the world—leading you to hold back, overprepare, overanalyze, or avoid situations that feel emotionally risky. You may long for connection while also fearing judgment, criticism, rejection, or not being accepted as you are. Together, we will explore the roots of these fears while helping you feel more secure, authentic, and at ease in relationships and social situations.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Social anxiety reflects fears of visibility, judgment, and emotional exposure. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration with somatic awareness to understand how relational fear is held in both the body and inner life.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
I work with adults who experience social anxiety, including fear of judgment, self-consciousness, and discomfort in social or performance situations. Many clients avoid social interactions or feel tense and overwhelmed despite wanting to connect and engage more fully with others. My approach combines evidence-based strategies with exploration of underlying emotional and cognitive patterns, helping clients build confidence, reduce anxiety, and develop practical skills to navigate social situations with greater ease and self-assurance.
