Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
Anxiety is about fear, and fear is about safety or the absence of it. Sometimes there are certain situations that trigger fear, often a fear of how others might see us or judge us. There are some really good and evidence based approaches for treating anxiety. The approach I use is not a quick fix, but you and I will get you to a place where the fear is small enough to be ignored.

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.

Keri Downs, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Keri Downs specializes in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with social anxiety. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to help clients manage and overcome their social anxiety.
Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is characterized by intense fear and anxiety in social situations. This can include fear of being judged, embarrassed, or scrutinized by others. Dr. Downs employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to social anxiety. She also integrates exposure therapy, a CBT method that gradually exposes clients to feared social situations in a controlled and supportive environment, helping them build confidence and reduce anxiety.
In addition to CBT and exposure therapy, Dr. Downs incorporates mindfulness techniques to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. Her holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and improved social functioning.
Dr. Downs provides a compassionate and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their fears and develop effective coping strategies. She also offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Dr. Downs is dedicated to helping individuals with social anxiety achieve greater confidence and lead more fulfilling social lives.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach social anxiety through a relational and nervous system lens, recognizing that fear, self-consciousness, and avoidance often develop as protective responses to experiences of feeling unsafe, disconnected, or misunderstood. Therapy focuses on creating a space of relational safety where clients can better understand their responses, build confidence, and gradually develop a greater sense of comfort and connection in relationships and social situations.

Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals understand social anxiety and loosen its grip, easing distress while making room for genuine connection. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening at and beneath the surface—anticipatory fear, self-monitoring, and the meanings carried from past experience—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less avoidance and second-guessing, more ease, choice, and confidence in relating to others.
