Social Anxiety
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.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Michelle Solomon
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with individuals experiencing social anxiety who feel held back by fear, overthinking, and self-consciousness in social situations. Their fear of being judged by others limits their ability to show up authentically as themselves. Together, we build tools to manage anxiety, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen your sense of ease and confidence with yourself and others.
