Social Anxiety
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.

Social Anxiety
Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Social anxiety is so much more than shyness. It can mean dreading everyday interactions, replaying conversations long after they are over, avoiding situations that feel overwhelming, or carrying a constant fear of being judged, embarrassed, or not meeting others' expectations. At Alabaster Counseling, we understand how exhausting it can be to navigate the world when social situations feel threatening rather than enjoyable, and we are here to help. We work with girls and women of all ages who are struggling with social anxiety, providing a warm and supportive space to explore where those fears come from and gently begin to work through them. Using evidence-based therapy, we help you build confidence, develop practical coping strategies, and start showing up in your life and relationships with greater ease and comfort.

Social Anxiety
Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an IFS perspective, social anxiety often involves protective parts that try to prevent perceived judgment or rejection. By noticing and compassionately engaging with these anxious parts, you can help them feel safe and understood rather than controlling your behavior. Over time, connecting with your Self allows these parts to relax, creating space for more confident and authentic social interactions.

Social Anxiety
Joshua Redding
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
It's not always the lonely who have social anxiety (though that can be a symptom), It can look like avoiding friends and family, using substances to cope, or binge-watching shows because the world (and the people in it) can seem boringly terrifying. Trying to understand why and how to manage your social anxiety may even be anxiety-inducing! Therapy can help reduce the effects of social anxiety and uncover desire. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.
