Michelle Foster
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
When working with clients experiencing anxiety, I use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach combined with mindfulness techniques to help them identify and reframe anxious thoughts, develop effective coping strategies, and reduce physical symptoms of anxiety. This approach empowers clients to build resilience and regain control over their daily lives.

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If the fear of judgment keeps you isolated, our work is designed to help you reconnect with confidence. We’ll partner to identify and restructure the fear-based thoughts that fuel your anxiety. Using a "parts work" approach, we will gently explore the protective inner system and connect with the source of the anxiety—often a young, vulnerable, or shamed "part" that developed to keep you safe from perceived social threat. This work is gently paced and respects your need for safety as you learn to unhook from the endless cycle of rumination and choose to engage in your life according to your values.

Yuanfei Zhang
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel like a performance. I help clients slow down, understand their patterns, and gradually build confidence through real-world practice, so that connecting with others starts to feel more natural and less exhausting.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Social anxiety is the body responding to social situations as if they were genuinely dangerous. It is not shyness and it is not a character flaw. It is a subconscious pattern, usually formed early, that learned to brace and self-monitor in the presence of other people. RTT works directly with the moment that pattern was formed and updates it. Once the threat signal quietens, social situations stop feeling like a performance and start feeling like, well, situations. I work with adults who have tried talking therapy and exposure work and want something that addresses the underlying wiring rather than just managing the surface symptoms.
