Social Anxiety
Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Being around others should be fun, but if you find it exhausting, taxing, devastating, then there is help for your social anxiety. Fortunately I offer online counseling, making those first steps easier to manage. No going out in public to get help for not wanting to go out in public.

Social Anxiety
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can be an effective tool for treating social anxiety by helping individuals overcome the fear and discomfort associated with social situations. Through relaxation techniques and positive suggestion, hypnotherapists support clients in accessing subconscious beliefs that contribute to anxiety, enabling them to reframe negative self-perceptions and develop greater confidence. This approach may reduce physiological symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heartbeat or sweating, and promote calmer, more adaptive responses in social settings. Integrated with other therapies, hypnotherapy empowers individuals to build self-assurance and engage more comfortably in social interactions.

Social Anxiety
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social anxiety can make conversations and everyday interactions feel tense and exhausting. We will look at what you fear will happen and the habits that keep anxiety reinforced, like avoidance or overthinking. I help clients develop skills for managing anxiety in the moment and gradually feel more comfortable in social settings so connection becomes easier and less draining.

Social Anxiety
Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Social anxiety can manifest in many ways. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, flushing of the face, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation in social and performance situations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming social anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Spokane is eastern Washington's largest city and serves as the commercial and healthcare hub for a vast inland region — the Inland Northwest — creating a therapy community that draws clients from across a wide geographic area and addresses the particular stressors of rural and small-town communities alongside its own urban population. The city has a significant veteran and active-duty military population connected to Fairchild Air Force Base, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and service-to-civilian transition serve an important role. Providence Health and MultiCare Health System provide major institutional mental health resources alongside Washington State University's Spokane health sciences campus, which feeds clinical training into the local community. Spokane's economic challenges — including persistent poverty in some neighborhoods — mean therapists here frequently work with economic stress, substance use, and the compounding effects of long-term financial precarity.
