Social Anxiety
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. Lisa Wilke
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Do you feel anxious meeting new people, speaking in front of a group, or walking into a crowded room? Do you avoid activities that involve large groups of people? Social anxiety is more than simply being shy or introverted. It can involve a strong fear of being judged, embarrassed, rejected, or negatively evaluated by others. Sometimes, even everyday interactions such as making a phone call, asking a question, or starting a conversation can trigger anxiety. If you are experiencing significant social anxiety, support is available. Schedule an initial consultation through my website to get started.

Social Anxiety
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Social Anxiety
David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for social anxiety, I help you identify and challenge the fear of being judged or scrutinized by others in social or performance situations. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe self-critical thoughts while teaching you practical social skills and grounding techniques to manage physical discomfort. Through gradual, supportive exposure to social settings, I work with you to build genuine self-confidence and reduce the need for avoidance or safety behaviors.

Social Anxiety
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel draining or high-stakes, leading to overthinking, self-monitoring, or avoidance. Many women find themselves wanting connection while also fearing judgment or getting it “wrong.” In our work together, we focus on understanding how these fears developed, reducing the internal pressure that fuels them, and building a more confident and flexible way of engaging with others.
