Social Anxiety
Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
If you experience intense anxiety in social situations you may be struggling with social anxiety disorder (social phobia). Social anxiety is the fear of judgment from others, whether it’s new people, authority figures, romantic interests, friends, acquaintances or strangers. This can make it difficult to do things like make friends, ask for a raise, go on dates, attend parties, or give speeches.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so you can reclaim your life from anxiety and move towards the nourishing connections you crave.

Josh Stieber
Psychologist, PhD
You are probably on this page because you know how much social anxiety can hold you back. I believe that your anxieties arose at some point as a way to try to keep you safe. But sometimes that protective wall can feel like a prison. If we work together, I would support you in understanding how your psyche built this layer of protection. We would then befriend the vulnerable parts of yourself that have relied on this protection. Through welcoming these parts, we can then find more satisfying ways of taking care of yourself.
