Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Charles R. Davenport specializes in treating social anxiety, a condition characterized by intense fear and anxiety in social situations. With over two decades of experience, Dr. Davenport uses evidence-based therapies to help clients manage and overcome their social anxiety.
Social anxiety can significantly impact daily life, making it difficult to interact with others, attend social gatherings, or perform in public. Dr. Davenport employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to their anxiety. He also incorporates 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. Davenport integrates mindfulness techniques to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. His holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and improved social functioning.
Dr. Davenport provides a compassionate and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their fears and develop effective coping strategies. He 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. Davenport is dedicated to helping individuals with social anxiety achieve greater confidence and lead more fulfilling social lives.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety involves three components: cognitive (thinking), behavioral, and physiological. I can help you change your thinking to be more positive, yet accurate. Behavioral includes facing your social fears (the more you avoid, the more fearful you will be), as well as social skills. I'll help you learn social skills. Physiological means that dreaded fight flight response (heart pounding, blushing, sweating). I'll help you to stay relaxed when anxious. Believe it or not 95% of people are anxious in at least one social situation. Normalizing it and accepting it is another thing I am Abel (hahaha) to help you with.
