Dr. Elizabeth Richards
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Do you often feel paralyzed by worry about judgment, criticism, or rejection, which interferes with your work, relationships, and daily life? In our work together, we’ll explore the patterns and beliefs underlying your social anxiety, while learning tools and strategies to increase confidence, manage anxious thoughts, and improve engagement in social and professional situations. By combining insight-oriented work with practical approaches, we’ll create opportunities for growth, self-understanding, and mastery. My goal is to help you feel more at ease, present, and capable of connecting authentically with others, while cultivating resilience in the face of social challenges. Feel free to contact me for a complementary 15-minute consultation if you think I might be the right therapist for you.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety is not shyness. It is the experience of being watched by a judge who lives inside your own head — a judge who arrived long before you ever chose to listen to it. Every room becomes a performance. Every interaction is graded. The exhaustion is not from other people. It is from the constant labor of self-surveillance. Therapy works not by teaching you to ignore the judge but by understanding whose voice it actually is, and why it was installed in the first place.
