Does the thought of social interactions fill you with dread? Is social anxiety preventing you from enjoying life to the fullest? Social anxiety can be isolating and limiting, but it doesn't have to control your life. Imagine a life where social interactions become opportunities for growth and enjoyment, not sources of fear and discomfort. I will help you build essential social skills, challenge negative thought patterns, and develop a sense of ease and confidence in interpersonal interactions. Together, we will work towards fostering genuine connections and creating a life enriched by meaningful social experiences.

Brittany Rine
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Social Anxiety has the potential to hold us back from forming the relationships we want or achieving the goals we have made. Social Anxiety can feel crippling and defeating. My approach to handling social anxiety is to affirm the challenge it causes, instill hope for the future, and provide tools to help.

Kody Evans
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social situations can feel exhausting when you are constantly thinking about how you are coming across, what others might think, or whether you said or did the wrong thing. You may avoid certain situations, replay conversations afterward, or find it difficult to feel comfortable being yourself around others. Therapy can help you understand what is driving that anxiety, challenge the patterns that reinforce it, and develop more effective ways to navigate social situations. My approach is practical and collaborative, with a focus on building confidence and helping you feel more at ease in your relationships and everyday life.

Sonia Hassan
Counselor/Therapist, LSWAIC
Social anxiety can make conversations, meeting new people, or speaking up feel intimidating. You may find yourself overthinking interactions, worrying about being judged, or avoiding situations where you feel uncomfortable. I use CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to help clients address fear of judgment, reduce avoidance, and become more comfortable navigating social situations. Our work focuses on developing confidence, expressing yourself more freely, and building meaningful connections with others.

Cascade Psychological Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Social anxiety can make connection feel dangerous, even when it is deeply wanted. I help adults understand the shame, fear of evaluation, and relational expectations underlying social anxiety while using acceptance, self-compassion, and gradual exposure to reduce avoidance and support more authentic participation in relationships and community.

Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Social anxiety can feel like a constant self-monitoring in relationships; worrying about how you are perceived, replaying conversations, or feeling tense, awkward, or “on display” in social settings. Even when outwardly functioning well, internally there may be a strong sense of pressure, fear of judgment, or exhaustion from managing impressions.
In therapy, we work to understand the deeper emotional and nervous system patterns underneath social anxiety, including past experiences of relational safety, belonging, and rejection. From a psychodynamic perspective, social anxiety is often connected to early attachment experiences and internalized beliefs about acceptance and worth.
Using a trauma-informed and Focusing-Oriented approach, we pay attention to what happens in the body in moments of social activation — the tightening, freeze responses, or self-consciousness — and learn how to stay present with those sensations rather than becoming overwhelmed by them.
Over time, this work supports greater ease in relationships, increased self-trust, and a more grounded sense of presence with others, rather than constant self-evaluation.

Elza Boycheva
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC
Do you feel anxious around others, worry what they might think, fear that they would judge you, or worry that you won't fit in? You may feel self-conscious, constantly second-guess yourself, feel embarrassed about speaking, or find yourself dwelling on what you said and what others thought. For some people, it's hard to even make eye contact or say hello. You may avoid social situations or find yourself feeling extremely anxious the entire time you're around others. Social anxiety can take a real toll on you and on your life. You may be worried about the impact it's having on your friendships, coworker interactions, workplace situations, or dating.

Bonfire Healing - Bonnie Deopp, MS, LMHC, CN
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CN, EMDR certified, Clinical Supervisor
Welcome, We're so glad you’re here! Bonfire Healing provides outpatient telehealth therapy with focus on complex mental health issues and developmental trauma along with co-occurring eating issues, addictions, chronic health conditions, nuerodiversity, and maladaptive behaviors. Our mission is to promote health equity through increasing access to evidence-based trauma treatment while utilizing insurance benefits so that this care is both high quality and affordable to more people. We honor that there is a strong correlation between trauma and the development of social anxiety. This is particularly true if we grew up with caregivers or peers who were not safe because they were explosive, criticizing, bullying, inattentive, neglectful, emotionally immature, and/or needy. We take a relational approach and we are in this together. We combine evidenced based modalities to heal these impacts on your nervous system and bring back regulation that decreases social anxiety symptoms.
