Social anxiety often entails a hyperfocus on how you'll be received rather than how you can express yourself. This form of anxiety can come from various sources so we will work to understand the specific obstacles and patterns you have around social experiences to then move forward into a more ease filled approach.

Social Anxiety

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.

Phoenix, Arizona therapist: Brittany Shannon, psychologist
Social Anxiety

Brittany Shannon

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety is not just about being shy. It often develops after experiences where being seen, judged, or rejected felt unsafe. Over time, avoiding people can start to feel like the safest option. The problem is it also keeps you stuck. In therapy, we work to understand where that fear came from and help you re-engage socially without feeling like you’re constantly under pressure.
