When You Worry What Others Think
If you find yourself replaying conversations, worrying you said the “wrong” thing, or avoiding situations where you might be judged, you may be struggling with social anxiety. You might appear confident and put-together on the outside but inside feel tense, self-conscious, or on high alert. Even small interactions — meetings, text replies, or social plans — can feel like high-stakes performances. Social anxiety is not just shyness. It’s your brain trying to protect you from rejection or embarrassment — often by over-analyzing and keeping you stuck.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you feel calm and authentic around others. You’ll learn how to:
Identify and challenge the beliefs that drive fear of judgment
Rewire the inner dialogue that fuels self-criticism and avoidance
Build emotional tolerance for uncertainty and vulnerability
Practice real-world experiments that retrain your brain’s social safety system
Experience connection and confidence without overthinking every move
Our work blends compassion and science — using daily tools, feedback, and measurable progress to create lasting change. Most clients notice significant relief from social anxiety within 8 to 12 weeks.
I BELIEVE:
You deserve to feel safe being yourself — not performing for others.
Confidence isn’t the absence of anxiety; it’s learning to show up anyway.
Connection grows when we stop chasing perfection and start allowing authenticity.
Fear loses power when it’s met with curiosity instead of avoidance.
Laughter, empathy, and courage are the antidotes to shame.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Wyatt Okeefe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LPCC
I help clients understand and manage social anxiety that can make interactions, relationships, work, or everyday situations feel overwhelming. Therapy may address fear of judgment, self-consciousness, avoidance, difficulty speaking or asserting oneself, and worry about how others perceive you. Together, we work to build confidence, develop effective coping strategies, and increase comfort and flexibility in social situations.

Michael Pollet
Registered Social Worker, CSWA
Our work starts by acknowledging the social, cultural, and environmental conditions that may contribute to the problems that affect your quality of life and capacity to receive or engage in mental health care. Therapy is tailored to your preferences to minimize stressors and build skills for interacting more effectively with the outside world. The behaviors, emotions, relationship patterns, or self-beliefs that no longer work for you can be transformed, rather than pathologized by identifying external power imbalances that impede quality of life and highlighting the good intentions behind difficult interactions.
