Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety, like other anxieties, involves fear of situations that we can not be certain of the outcome. Social anxiety is different in that it is fear of others' perceptions of us and that they will negatively judge and evaluate us. CBT and exposure to these fears is essential to overcoming these beliefs, thoughts, and avoidance/escape behavioral patterns.

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.

Therapist, LMSW, Ed.S., M.ed
Social anxiety can make connection feel both deeply wanted and incredibly difficult. I support clients who experience fear of judgment, overthinking, avoidance, or discomfort in social situations, helping them build confidence and develop a greater sense of ease and authenticity in relationships.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Social anxiety is not shyness. It is the experience of being watched by a judge who lives inside your own head — a judge who arrived long before you ever chose to listen to it. Every room becomes a performance. Every interaction is graded. The exhaustion is not from other people. It is from the constant labor of self-surveillance. Therapy works not by teaching you to ignore the judge but by understanding whose voice it actually is, and why it was installed in the first place.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Anxiety is the fear of future pain. Social anxiety is the fear that others will judge us and that their judgments will result in rejection and that such will be painful. Let's work together to challenge and undo that painful process so you can be freer with others and connect more with them.
