Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you constantly seeking acceptance from others? Do you struggle with being your authentic self because you worry about how other's perceive you? Do you avoid social situations because you fear you may say something wrong or not be liked by others? Anxiety can be debilitating in social situations. CBT is often used to assist individuals with increasing confidence in social situations and learning how to give oneself grace when they say or do something wrong. Dr. Goodwin will work on helping individuals to let go of the idea that they need to be perfect, or what they perceive as the perfect person, to be liked by others so they can work on being the person they were meant to be. Together, we can work on helping you to believe in yourself and be the best version of who you are meant to be.

Mallory Lamb
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I utilize evidence-based therapies of CBT and ERP for social anxiety. At the heart of social anxiety is a fear of negative evaluation by others, which often begins in adolescence and continues in adulthood. We will explore formation of beliefs (developmental history) and factors maintaining those beliefs. With support, guidance, and gentle challenging and accountability by me, we will disrupt the cycle of avoidance that is perpetuating social anxiety to challenge long-held fears.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.
