Social Anxiety
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.

Social Anxiety
Craig Springer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you struggle taking the first steps to get closer to others and feel detached?
Do you experience tension or conflict when you get closer to your acquaintances?
Do you feel anxious in social situations and shy away from closer connections?
Do you long for more enjoyment and fun in your social experience?
While we desire relationships and connections with others outside of our immediate families, we may experience difficulty establishing and maintaining these relationships .
If you are someone who…
looks for closer connections
wishes there was more care and less conflict with your friends
get anxious when talking to strangers or in social gatherings
… then I may be able to help. I can assist you in improving your communication and interpersonal skills to bring you closer to others. While conflict can surface in every human interaction, if it is handled skillfully with warmth and respect, there is a great chance to develop closer and more meaningful relationships.
I have experience helping people manage relationship conflicts, attachment difficulties and social anxiety. Please contact me if you are interested in exploring these services.

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

Social Anxiety
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.
