Social Anxiety
Ashton Burdick
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, NCC, LCMHC
I enjoy helping individuals who struggle with social anxiety, "shyness", or introversion. As a life-long introvert and socially anxious person, I understand how hard it can be to get through some social situations. I can help you build skills to manage the anxiety and awkwardness, as well as improve acceptance of yourself.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like high-stakes performances, leaving you preoccupied with how others perceive you or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. You may avoid certain situations, hold back from speaking up, or put significant energy into appearing confident while privately worrying about being judged. It's exhausting. In our work together, we’ll identify the patterns that make social situations feel so difficult and practice approaching them differently, so you can feel more at ease, speak more freely, show up genuinely, and build connections without the pressure to get everything right.

Social Anxiety
Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
. Living this way can be exhausting and can leave you feeling disconnected from who you really are.
Together, we'll explore the patterns beneath your anxiety, strengthen your sense of emotional safety, and build the confidence to express yourself more authentically. As your self-trust grows, social situations begin to feel less about getting everything right and more about being present and connected.

Social Anxiety
Brittany Washington
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I specialize in helping individuals overcome social anxiety by providing a supportive and understanding space to explore the fears and thought patterns that contribute to discomfort in social situations. Through evidence-based techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy and compassion-focused therapy, I work with clients to challenge negative self-talk, build confidence, and develop practical tools for managing anxiety in social settings. Whether it’s related to public speaking, social interactions, or fear of judgment, my goal is to empower clients to feel more comfortable, authentic, and connected in their relationships and social environments.
