Social Anxiety
Cascade Psychological Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Social anxiety can make connection feel dangerous, even when it is deeply wanted. I help adults understand the shame, fear of evaluation, and relational expectations underlying social anxiety while using acceptance, self-compassion, and gradual exposure to reduce avoidance and support more authentic participation in relationships and community.

Social Anxiety
Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety is so much more than being shy. It is the dread that builds before a gathering you said yes to weeks ago. It is replaying a conversation in your head long after everyone else has moved on. It is shrinking yourself in rooms where you belong, staying quiet when you have something worth saying, or avoiding situations altogether just to escape the fear of being judged, embarrassed, or not enough.
And the exhausting part is that from the outside, nobody can even tell.
At CCW International, we understand how much energy it takes to navigate the world when social situations feel like a minefield. For many of the women we serve, social anxiety shows up quietly, hidden behind a polished exterior and a reputation for having it all together. For our veteran clients, it can look like struggling to reintegrate into civilian social spaces that feel foreign and unpredictable after years of a structured military community.
Whatever it looks like for you, we are here to help you understand where it comes from and what keeps it going. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we work with you to gently challenge the thoughts and avoidance patterns that have been running the show, and help you start showing up in your life with more ease, more confidence, and a lot less dread.
You have so much to offer the world. We want to help you feel free enough to share it.

Social Anxiety
Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I approach therapy from the belief that emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and other psychological concerns are best understood not only by their symptoms, but by how we respond to pain, uncertainty, expectations, and change. My work often focuses on helping clients recognize unhelpful patterns, become less governed by comparison or rigid thinking, tolerate discomfort more effectively, and identify small but meaningful shifts that can change the direction of their lives. Rather than viewing people as simply “right or wrong” or “well or unwell,” I try to understand what is happening, how it developed, and what may help someone move forward with greater awareness, flexibility, and intention.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Hypnotherapy is an effective treatment for social anxiety by helping to reduce anxiety symptoms, reframe negative thought patterns, and build confidence. It replaces negative thought patterns with positive ones.Physical Symptom Management: Hypnosis reduces physical symptoms like blushing, sweating, and trembling.
Social anxiety is not insurmountable. My clients with this disorder are recovering and living a happy life, meeting with new and old friends. I use Dicit hypnotherapy. All my patients are now more social and sociable than ever. So should you.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Anxiety is the fear of future pain. Social anxiety is the fear that others will judge us and that their judgments will result in rejection and that such will be painful. Let's work together to challenge and undo that painful process so you can be freer with others and connect more with them.
