Social Anxiety therapists in Greendale, Wisconsin WI
Michele Sitorus (Inner Peace Psychological Care)
Psychologist, Psy.D.
In therapy, you will learn to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs about social situations. Utilizing the cognitive-behavioral techniques I will help you develop coping strategies for managing anxiety symptoms, such as relaxation techniques and gradual exposure to feared social situations. Additionally, therapy may focus on improving social skills and communication, building self-confidence, and addressing underlying issues such as low self-esteem or past traumas that contribute to social anxiety.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Social Anxiety can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure. This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for social anxiety available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create social and emotional distress while simultaneously resist acting on urges to avoiding such interactions. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming urges to avoid them. People with social anxiety are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
CBT is considered the preferred, first-line, evidence-based treatment for social anxiety. My downtown location lends itself to completing therapist-accompanied real world exposures with my clients. I believe exposure work to be at the core of effective treatment for SAD. I also provide group therapy for social anxiety, help clients develop the skills of making "small talk," and work to increase their levels of self-esteem and confidence.

Lauren Rothstein
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work to address social anxiety by offering targeted interventions to help individuals navigate social interactions with greater ease. Through evidence-based techniques, I work collaboratively with patients to identify, explore, and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build a sense of confidence and competence, and develop effective coping mechanisms. The aim is to empower individuals to overcome social fears and enhance overall social wellbeing.
