Social anxiety can range from barely noticeable to debilitating. If you feel social anxiety is a problem in your life, I have many ways to address it. By identifying your personal experience of anxiety, we can work together to help reduce it using a combination of techniques that are appropriate for you. This may include mental strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Systematic Desensitization, or physical strategies such as breathing techniques, muscle relaxation, or other relaxation techniques.

Mallory Lamb
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I utilize evidence-based therapies of CBT and ERP for social anxiety. At the heart of social anxiety is a fear of negative evaluation by others, which often begins in adolescence and continues in adulthood. We will explore formation of beliefs (developmental history) and factors maintaining those beliefs. With support, guidance, and gentle challenging and accountability by me, we will disrupt the cycle of avoidance that is perpetuating social anxiety to challenge long-held fears.

Dan Safavi
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-22108
I help adults who feel anxious, self-conscious, or overly focused on how they are being perceived in social situations. Therapy can help you reduce avoidance, become less caught up in self-monitoring, and feel more comfortable connecting with others without needing every interaction to go perfectly.
