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.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to the treatment social anxiety is grounded in evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and beliefs that contribute to fear and self-consciousness in social situations. Together, we use practical strategies such as cognitive restructuring, gradual exposure, and social skills training to build confidence and reduce avoidance. This structured, supportive process helps clients develop a more balanced perspective and engage more comfortably and authentically in social interactions.

Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
At the heart of social anxiety is self esteem and uncertainty with your true self and letting that part of you interact with others without fear of not being good enough or not fitting in.
Social anxiety these days also has new meaning with the pandemic - comfort level, safety, and returning to social gatherings after an almost year of living without them.
