Social Anxiety
Willow & Arbor, PLLC
Counselor/Therapist
Social anxiety can be debilitating and it is often rooted in shame. Therapy can be especially helpful as you identify the roots of social anxiety, process meaning and fears around social environments and interaction, and develop coping skills that make sense specifically for you and your unique identity and personality.

Social Anxiety
Cascade Psychological Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Social anxiety can make connection feel dangerous, even when it is deeply wanted. I help adults understand the shame, fear of evaluation, and relational expectations underlying social anxiety while using acceptance, self-compassion, and gradual exposure to reduce avoidance and support more authentic participation in relationships and community.

Patricia McGuire
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-MHSP, NCC
Anxiety is a common (and uncomfortable!) experience we all encounter in our lives. Anxiety is not just one thing; it represents a myriad of responses in the human experience and it’s important to pay attention when it shows up.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You overthink everything you say. You replay conversations long after they’re over, second-guessing how you came across. Maybe you dread group settings, avoid situations where you might be put on the spot, or mask your discomfort so well that no one would ever know how anxious you feel inside. Social anxiety doesn’t always look like panic—it can look like perfectionism, avoidance, or exhaustion from constantly managing how you’re perceived.
Dr. Jenny Shields helps people who are quietly carrying social anxiety beneath the surface—especially those who seem calm and capable on the outside but feel anything but on the inside. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassion-based work, she helps you gently face the fears that are running the show, learn new ways to respond, and build confidence from the inside out. Her approach is warm, respectful, and deeply attuned to the sensitivity that often comes with social anxiety. Together, you’ll work to ease the self-doubt, drop the need to perform, and reclaim your voice—not by becoming someone else, but by learning to show up as yourself.
