Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Social anxiety in high-performing men is uniquely paradoxical — these are men who can command a boardroom or lead a crew but privately dread casual social situations, feel certain they're being judged, or perform confidence they don't actually feel underneath. I work with men navigating social anxiety through Character Driven Therapy, examining the self-perception and inner critic driving the anxiety and building a more grounded internal identity that doesn't require constant monitoring of how others are responding. The goal is genuine ease in social situations — not a performance of ease that costs you every time.

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.

Root & Rise Clinical Specialists
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming, triggering self-doubt, overthinking, and a constant fear of judgment. At Root & Rise, we treat social anxiety by combining evidence-based methods with The Stark Contrast™—our signature blend of Creative Arts Therapy and cognitive-emotional processing developed by co-founder Julie Stark, LCSW. This approach helps clients move beyond traditional talk therapy by engaging both the analytical and expressive parts of the brain. Through guided creative exercises, emotional mapping, nervous-system awareness, and structured skill-building, clients learn to address the fears underneath their social anxiety while also practicing new ways of showing up confidently in real-world situations. The Stark Contrast™ helps you shift from avoidance and self-consciousness into clarity, connection, and self-trust—so social interactions feel less threatening and more authentically you.
