Social Anxiety
Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
When social situations leave you distressed — and that distress starts getting in the way of building relationships, speaking up at work, or presenting at school — it can feel like your own nervousness is running the show. You may want to feel more at ease and more confident, but not know how to get there. Counseling can help. Together, we work on those fears gradually, at a pace you set, so that connecting with others and showing up in the moments that matter start to feel more possible.

12 Years Experience
Online in Akron, OH Ohio (Online Only)
Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health System and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
