Cecelia Myers
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC (NC), RPT-S, LPC (GA), Licensed telehealth provider SC
I strive to provide a non-threatening environment to practice social skills and form new relationships. Social anxiety can be difficult to navigate. We can change our ways of thinking to increase our feelings of self worth and courage.

Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
My approach is rooted in creating a supportive and gradual space for individuals to navigate the challenges of social interactions. In our sessions, I provide a safe and empathetic environment where clients can explore the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors associated with social anxiety. We get curious regarding social anxiety's roots and function in order to forge a more balanced and empowering path forward.
Together, we work to identify the underlying causes and triggers of social anxiety, recognizing the unique experiences each client brings to the therapeutic relationship. I guide clients through evidence-based strategies to manage anxiety symptoms, build self-confidence, and develop effective social skills.
My focus is on empowering individuals to face social situations with greater ease, promoting gradual, gentle exposure and desensitization techniques when the client is ready. We collaboratively set realistic goals, practice communication skills, and explore cognitive-behavioral strategies to challenge and reframe negative thought patterns.
Throughout the therapeutic process, I aim to foster a sense of self-acceptance and provide tools for clients to navigate social interactions authentically. By addressing social anxiety in a supportive and understanding manner, the goal is to help individuals build the confidence to engage in social activities and lead a more fulfilling, connected life.

Dr. Christina A Remek
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Many people suffer from social anxiety and don't even realize. I utilize several CBT and DBT techniques to help my clients take control of their social anxiety and manage these symptoms so that they no longer feel debilitated by this difficult disorder.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
People with social anxiety often have a number of self-defeating attitudes that underpin their social anxiety. First, they wrongly think they must perform perfectly well. They also usually think that they need the approval of significant others, that it is awful to experience disapproval and failure. They also tend to wrongly believe that rejection and failure prove they are inadequate as people. I teach you that yes there are practical implications of disapproval and failure, but there need not be unhealthy anxiety about these consequences. I teach healthy attitudes toward one's self, one's rejections and failures. I teach you to have a desire to be accepted by others and do well but to accept yourself unconditionally even when you are rejected and fail.
