Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals who experience social anxiety, self-consciousness, fear of judgment, or difficulty feeling comfortable and confident around others. Together, we explore the deeper beliefs, past experiences, attachment patterns, and nervous-system responses that may contribute to feeling unsafe, exposed, or afraid of being rejected or misunderstood. Through a trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach, I help clients develop greater internal safety, self-trust, emotional regulation, and confidence in their ability to navigate relationships and social situations. The goal is not to change who you are, but to help you feel more comfortable being fully yourself without constantly monitoring, judging, or questioning how you are being perceived.

Katie Steinert
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Social anxiety feels devastating. The constant fear of judgement, worrying that others can see that you are anxious, and the frustrating physical symptoms (pounding heart, trembling, sweating, or blushing) can be enough to make you feel hopeless, maybe even depressed. Let's explore how your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions interact to power your social anxiety. You CAN learn to interact with your anxiety in a more productive way. I believe that every individual struggling with social anxiety can learn to re-engage in their lives and reduce the impact that it has on their relationships and self-esteem.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in helping individuals navigate social anxiety, whether it shows up as overthinking conversations, fear of judgment, avoiding social situations, or feeling uncomfortable being seen or heard. Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or overwhelming, even when you want to connect with others. Together, we focus on building confidence, reducing avoidance, and helping you feel more at ease in social settings. Using practical tools and mind-body techniques, I’ll help you manage anxiety in real time so you can show up more fully, communicate more comfortably, and feel less held back in your relationships and daily life.

Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in treating social anxiety, helping individuals overcome the fear of judgment and the avoidance patterns that often limit one’s social and professional life. My approach is rooted in evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), where we collaboratively work to challenge negative beliefs about yourself and others while using gradual, supported exposure to help you build real-world social confidence. Whether your anxiety centers on performance situations, meeting new people, or navigating everyday social interactions, I provide a compassionate, skills-based environment to help you learn to trust yourself, communicate assertively, and engage authentically in the life you want to lead.

Psychologist, PsyD
Worrying about what others think, overanalyzing conversations, or avoiding social situations can make everyday life feel stressful and limiting. Social anxiety often shows up in school, friendships, and new environments. My goal is to help you reduce anxious thoughts and develop practical strategies for feeling more comfortable and authentic in social settings—so you can connect with others without the constant pressure.
