Social Anxiety
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like high-stakes performances, leaving you preoccupied with how others perceive you or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. You may avoid certain situations, hold back from speaking up, or put significant energy into appearing confident while privately worrying about being judged. It's exhausting. In our work together, we’ll identify the patterns that make social situations feel so difficult and practice approaching them differently, so you can feel more at ease, speak more freely, show up genuinely, and build connections without the pressure to get everything right.
