Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to avoidance, isolation, and a diminished sense of confidence. As a therapist, I help individuals understand the thoughts, beliefs, and fears that fuel their anxiety in social situations. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to challenge negative thinking patterns and build healthier, more realistic self-perceptions. I also incorporate exposure therapy in a gradual, supportive way—helping clients face feared situations step by step, so they can gain confidence through real-world experiences. Over time, clients learn to manage their anxiety more effectively, increase their comfort in social settings, and engage more fully in life. My goal is to help you feel more connected, capable, and at ease with yourself and others.

Dr. Monika Sharma
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety may stem from feelings of vulnerability, like you don't belong, past experiences of rejection, fears of judgment, and/or a sensitive nervous system's that needs lower stimulation and greater predictability than social interactions entail. Socializing or the thought of meeting people can come with feelings of fear, embarrassment, self-consciousness, and self-doubt. It's easier to avoid interacting with others, but the temporary comfort this brings leads to greater discomfort in the long run. You feel like your social anxiety is hindering your relationships and keeping you from experiencing life as fully as you'd like.
I will teach you how to be curious about your uncomfortable feelings such as anxiety, anger, fear, sadness, loneliness, and overwhelm. This involves learning to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings because they won't actually hurt us; approach these feelings without judgment; poke at them and examine them and see what lies within them; and then decide how we want to use these feelings as a compass to guide us toward those things that truly matter. You will feel empowered to be the master of your feelings, not a puppet to them, while honoring who you are.

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Social anxiety isn't just "shyness" or being an introvert—it is an intense, self-focused fear of being scrutinized, judged, or rejected in social or performance settings that causes real functional impairment.
