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.

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.

Abby Leefer, LCSW-R - Perspectives Counseling of LI
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, often involving fear of judgment, embarrassment, or rejection. You may find yourself avoiding social situations or feeling distressed before, during, or after interactions. Our therapists provide a supportive space to understand these patterns and how they are maintained over time. Together, we work to build confidence, reduce avoidance, and develop skills to navigate social situations with greater ease and comfort.
