Does the thought of social interactions fill you with dread? Is social anxiety preventing you from enjoying life to the fullest?

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.

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.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
With social anxiety we will work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions as well as positive self talk, behavioral activation, probability estimation, pros and cons of being social, social skills & social cues, and behavioral activation (taking action). Often times we make something seem scarier in our own mind than it actually is. With anxiety one of the best ways to overcome it is simply to engage in the activity that scares you. I will help you to stop your negative thinking, to learn relaxation techniques and coping skills and then encourage you to face your fears and gain practice in social situations.

Alexzia Wagner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSWAIC
Social anxiety isn’t just shyness..it’s the constant awareness of how you might be perceived, often leading to avoidance or exhaustion after interactions. Together, we explore what’s driving that fear so you can feel more comfortable being yourself in social spaces.
