Fear of being judged negatively or avoiding things so we are not embarrassed or judged is the hallmark here. If we avoid everything tends to get worse. Dr. Davenport may be able to help.

Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Do you secretly hope your friends will cancel the plans you have made with them or spend time trying to figure out how to get out of social events because the thought of interacting with people or even walking into the even terrifies you? Social anxiety can be extremely crippling, and those of us who deal with it often struggle from loneliness and isolation even though those same social situations we crave so desperately also overwhelm us tremendously. In therapy you can learn new strategies to manage your anxiety, learn ways of creating friends AND showing up to enjoy them, and ways to create a community of people that “get” you and have space for you however you choose to show up. We can also help you learn to love ALL of the facets of your life- including the moments where you get to show up to spend time with others and the times you are alone. I find that online therapy is particularly good for social anxiety because we can work together in any place you feel safe and comfortable in and work together to help you stretch and strengthen your ability to interact socially. Please reach out!

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.
