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.

Social Anxiety
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.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Do you secretly hope your friends will cancel the plans you have made with them or spend time trying to figure out how to get out of social events because the thought of interacting with people or even walking into the even terrifies you? Social anxiety can be extremely crippling, and those of us who deal with it often struggle from loneliness and isolation even though those same social situations we crave so desperately also overwhelm us tremendously. In therapy you can learn new strategies to manage your anxiety, learn ways of creating friends AND showing up to enjoy them, and ways to create a community of people that “get” you and have space for you however you choose to show up. We can also help you learn to love ALL of the facets of your life- including the moments where you get to show up to spend time with others and the times you are alone. I find that online therapy is particularly good for social anxiety because we can work together in any place you feel safe and comfortable in and work together to help you stretch and strengthen your ability to interact socially.
