Social Anxiety
Mike Jeffcoat
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I can help the client by exporing the deeper thoughts and somatic responses that are occuring and the why in social contexts that bring about anxiety. With that work, transformation can take place so that the client can begin to have more meaningful, healthy, and positive social experiences. To that purpose, I use positive psychology, integrative holistic theories and practices, meditation, and breathwork so that my clients can experience a fulfilling life and become the authentic person they've wanted to be.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Social anxiety can create intense feelings of fear or discomfort in social situations, affecting personal, professional, and social aspects of life. I help clients explore the underlying thoughts and beliefs that contribute to this anxiety while offering practical tools for managing fear and building confidence in social interactions. Through cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure techniques, and mindfulness strategies, we work together to reduce avoidance behaviors, challenge negative self-talk, and develop more comfortable, authentic ways of engaging with others.

Social Anxiety
Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Social anxiety can feel like a constant loop of overthinking, second-guessing, and wondering if you said or did the wrong thing. You might dread small talk, avoid group settings, or replay conversations long after they’re over. Even when others see you as “fine,” you may still feel anxious, self-conscious, or like you're never fully at ease.
I work with people who are tired of feeling stuck in their own heads. In therapy, we’ll explore where these patterns come from and how to start shifting them—without forcing yourself to “just get over it.” We’ll build tools to manage anxiety in the moment, work through the deeper emotional layers behind it, and help you feel more confident and present in your relationships and day-to-day life.
Social anxiety doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It means something in you needs support, understanding, and space to heal.

Social Anxiety
Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals who struggle with social anxiety, fear of judgment, or ongoing discomfort in social situations. This can include anxiety around conversations, dating, work interactions, public settings, or being seen and evaluated by others. Social anxiety often leads people to avoid situations they care about or to feel exhausted from constantly monitoring how they come across.
In therapy, we focus on understanding what drives this anxiety and how it affects your relationships and daily life. I help clients develop practical tools to manage anxious thoughts, reduce self consciousness, and feel more grounded during social interactions. We also work on building confidence and self trust so that social situations feel less overwhelming over time.
The goal is not to become someone you are not, but to help you show up more comfortably and authentically in relationships, work, and community. With support and practice, many clients find they are able to engage more fully and with less fear.

Together, we work to reduce avoidance, increase a sense of ease and authenticity, and create more meaningful connections in both personal and professional settings.

Greg Rico
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
Social anxiety often occurs because your inner critics gets to narrate your performance in a wide variety of settings. The critic is judgemental, negatively biased, and is constantly finding out mistakes made and coloring your perceptions. We will focus on giving your coach inner voice time to narrate your actions, words, and deeds to balance the negative perspective of your inner critic.
