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.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I work with individuals experiencing social anxiety, including fear of judgment, discomfort in social situations, and difficulty speaking up or feeling at ease around others. Together, we explore the thought patterns and physical responses that fuel anxiety, while gently working to reduce avoidance and increase confidence in social settings. My approach is supportive and practical, helping you build real-world coping tools so you can feel more grounded, present, and comfortable in interactions at your own pace. The focus is on increasing confidence, easing social distress, and supporting you in showing up more fully and authentically in your relationships and daily life. If you’re ready to feel more at ease around others, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.
