Social Anxiety
Brielle Layden
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social Anxiety can feel debilitating and often prevents us from having the kinds of relationships and experiences we are worthy of. Given the pandemic and the subsequent isolation, your social anxiety might feel more intense or, you are simply struggling to reconnect with your social self. I will help you identify the root causes of this anxiety and provide you with coping strategies to ease the fearful response and increase your confidence.

Washington Heights is upper Manhattan's Dominican heart, a dense, vibrant neighborhood of multigenerational families, small businesses, and strong cultural identity, increasingly touched by gentrification pressure. Mental health needs include immigrant and bicultural family dynamics, economic strain, and demand for Spanish-language care — which the neighborhood is comparatively well positioned to meet, anchored by NewYork-Presbyterian's medical campus and Columbia's community-facing programs. The city's wider therapy market adds depth for those who can access it.
