Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to fear of judgment, embarrassment, rejection, or saying the wrong thing. It can affect friendships, dating, work, school, family relationships, and your ability to participate fully in life. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support to help you understand the thoughts and experiences contributing to social anxiety and develop greater confidence in social situations.
Counseling may focus on identifying anxious thought patterns, challenging self-doubt, developing healthy coping strategies, improving communication skills, building confidence, and gradually facing situations that may have been avoided. Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), strengths-based counseling, and practical anxiety-management techniques, we work collaboratively to help you take manageable steps toward greater comfort and connection.
For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be incorporated through prayer, Scripture, and spiritual reflection to support confidence, identity, hope, and a healthy understanding of self-worth. You don't have to let fear of judgment keep you from the relationships and experiences you want. With support and practice, greater confidence and meaningful connection are possible.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults struggling with social anxiety, shyness, or fear of judgment in personal, professional, or social settings. I help clients understand how patterns of worry, avoidance, and self-criticism develop and how they impact relationships, confidence, and daily life.
I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to support emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build coping skills. Therapy emphasizes self-compassion, confidence, and practical strategies to navigate social situations, communicate effectively, and foster meaningful connections.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety often results in avoidance of many activities. In these cases, fear is running the show. I work to unpack the fear of rejection and encourage people to slowly go out of their comfort zone.
