Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: Maria Jose Rendon, psychologist
Social Anxiety

Maria Jose Rendon

Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating social anxiety, from discomfort in specific professional situations like public speaking or networking to more pervasive difficulty feeling at ease around others. For some clients, this includes the particular experience of neurodivergence, not being sure whether you're following the rhythm of a conversation or reading social cues the way others expect. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, which gives us a structured way to understand what's driving the anxiety and build practical tools and gradual exposure to manage it. Many of my clients are professionals, scientists, or first-generation Latinx adults for whom social anxiety is compounded by code-switching or navigating spaces that weren't built with them in mind. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Tysons, Virginia therapist: Tracey Knows, licensed professional counselor
Social Anxiety

Tracey Knows

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Social anxiety can make even everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to avoidance, self-doubt, and excessive overthinking. I help individuals navigate these challenges by building confidence, developing practical coping strategies, and gently shifting unhelpful thought patterns. Using a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and gradual exposure work, I support clients in breaking free from fear-based limitations and finding more ease in social situations. My approach fosters self-trust, helping individuals engage more fully in their personal and professional lives without the weight of anxiety holding them back.

Denver, Colorado therapist: Carrie Gauthier, hypnotherapist
Social Anxiety

Carrie Gauthier

Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We look under the hood to find the culprit behind social anxiety then customize your hypnotic programming to rewire your brain in more desirable ways, so your thinking and behaviors are aligned with your new intention. We can also use breathwork, tapping, EMT, regression, IFS, NLP, and other frameworks to get you there. Often we will regress to the root cause memory behind the social anxiety and give the inner child a chance to release emotions and words that have been depleting you of life force energy. With this, we process and reframe the underlying emotions and beliefs to the new way of being. This involves a nervous system reset, and tools you'll gain include quick practices you can do when triggered or before important social events that regulate your emotions and program in a sense of overall calmness and peace. Overall, we retun you to safety at all times and show your nervous system, limbic brain, and endocrine system that you are not in danger.

Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Lee Chase, psychologist
Social Anxiety

Lee Chase

Psychologist, Ph.D.
True social anxiety is debilitating, overwhelming, and draining. It is also painful for those who want to have meaningful relationships, but as of yet, can't cope with the ongoing effort entailed to make it happen. Therapy will examine your specific trigger thoughts and situations, problematic recurring patterns, and identify reasonable goals for you to improve upon your comfort level and relationships.
