Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
You rehearse conversations before they happen. You replay them long after they're over. You cancel plans you actually wanted to keep, say yes when you mean no, and spend so much energy managing how you come across that you leave every interaction exhausted.
Social anxiety isn't shyness. It's a persistent, often exhausting experience of fear around how others perceive you — and it can quietly limit your world in ways that are hard to even name, because avoidance starts to feel like preference.
I work with people across the full range of social anxiety, from the low-grade discomfort that shows up in meetings or social gatherings to the kind that makes phone calls, eye contact, or new relationships feel genuinely unbearable. We work together to understand where it started, what's keeping it going, and how to gradually build a life that isn't organized around avoiding the things that scare you.
This isn't about becoming an extrovert or performing confidence you don't feel. It's about getting your choices back — being able to decide what you do and don't want based on what matters to you, not based on fear.
Social anxiety often overlaps with depression, perfectionism, and ADHD, and I'm experienced in treating the whole picture. If faith is part of your life, we can bring that into the work as well.
You don't have to keep disappearing to feel safe.

Avery Wageman Passion Flower Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to fear of judgment, avoidance of social situations, or intense self-consciousness in conversations, work settings, or group environments. Over time, this can impact relationships, confidence, and opportunities for connection.
Avery provides a supportive and nonjudgmental space to help you understand the thoughts and fears that fuel social anxiety. Together, you’ll work on building coping strategies, gently challenging avoidance patterns, and developing greater confidence in social situations at a pace that feels manageable. The goal is to help you feel more comfortable, present, and authentic in your interactions with others.

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.

Sarah Rossmiller
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPCC, LPC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like a performance you're bound to fail. I help you understand the fear underneath it and build genuine confidence, not just coping tricks for getting through a room.
