Social Anxiety
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.

Dealing with social anxiety can make forming meaningful connections feel like an uphill battle. I'm here to tell you that it's a journey we can take together in therapy.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You overthink everything you say. You replay conversations long after they’re over, second-guessing how you came across. Maybe you dread group settings, avoid situations where you might be put on the spot, or mask your discomfort so well that no one would ever know how anxious you feel inside. Social anxiety doesn’t always look like panic—it can look like perfectionism, avoidance, or exhaustion from constantly managing how you’re perceived.
Dr. Jenny Shields helps people who are quietly carrying social anxiety beneath the surface—especially those who seem calm and capable on the outside but feel anything but on the inside. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassion-based work, she helps you gently face the fears that are running the show, learn new ways to respond, and build confidence from the inside out. Her approach is warm, respectful, and deeply attuned to the sensitivity that often comes with social anxiety. Together, you’ll work to ease the self-doubt, drop the need to perform, and reclaim your voice—not by becoming someone else, but by learning to show up as yourself.
