ThinkSpot Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel more difficult than they appear, from meeting new people and speaking up to navigating friendships, dating, school, or work. For some, the pressure to fit in or constantly compare themselves to others can be intensified by social media and the expectation to always be connected. ThinkSpot Therapy can help clients understand the thoughts and fears driving social anxiety, build confidence in social situations, and develop practical ways to manage the physical and emotional stress that comes with it. We provide a supportive space to practice being more comfortable and present without feeling like you have to constantly measure up.

Joseph Harwerth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When treating social anxiety, I start by addressing the endless internal debate that people with this condition have with themselves before, during, and after social interactions. A joke I share with every client is, “If all it took to beat anxiety was a strong, persuasive argument, I’d refer you to a lawyer instead of a therapist.” My role isn’t to train you to win that debate, it’s to help you step away from it. Once you learn to step out of that entanglement, you can find the peace you’ve been searching for.

Jonathan Hock -- Men's Work
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism in men often masks a deeper struggle with meaning, control, and self-worth. It can drive relentless effort and achievement while quietly eroding satisfaction, connection, and a sense of authenticity. I work with men to uncover what perfectionism is protecting or avoiding, to explore the fears and expectations that fuel it, and to examine how it shapes daily life. The goal is not to eliminate striving, but to bring awareness and choice to it, so that effort serves purpose rather than anxiety, and men can engage with life more fully and freely.

Dr. Monica Dyer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, MPH, FNP, PMHNP
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles. I provide both medication management and supportive therapeutic care.
For patients healing from trauma, I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a gentle approach that helps people move forward without being overwhelmed by their past. My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.

Hollie Pool
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Do you find yourself overthinking conversations, worrying about how others perceive you, or replaying social interactions long after they're over? Maybe you avoid certain situations, struggle to speak up, or feel like everyone else knows how to navigate social settings while you're stuck in your own head. Social anxiety can make even everyday interactions feel exhausting, leaving you feeling disconnected from others and frustrated with yourself.
My approach focuses on helping you understand the thought patterns and fears that contribute to social anxiety while building confidence in your ability to navigate uncomfortable situations. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and gradual exposure strategies, we'll work on challenging fears of judgment, reducing self-critical thinking, practicing grounding techniques, and gradually approaching situations you may have been avoiding. We'll also explore people-pleasing patterns, self-esteem, and ways to stay present in conversations instead of getting caught up in what others might be thinking.
The goal isn't to become the most outgoing person in the room or never feel awkward again. It's to help you feel more comfortable being yourself, connect with others more authentically, and stop letting the fear of judgment make decisions for you. You deserve to participate in life without constantly worrying about getting everything just right.
