Social anxiety can affect you at any time in your life. You may feel your heart race, your blood pressure rise, or feel almost paralyzed. These are all physical manifestations of the internal anxiety you are experiencing. Let's work together to develop effective coping strategies.
I have experience supporting clients in identifying where their social anxiety began and what limiting/self-defeating thoughts are linked to the challenges. From there, we will implement EMDR and/or IFS work to further explore and support the issues in order to help you live your life with more social freedoms.
Addressing the root cause of the anxiety, how to manage it, and overcome it in order to thrive in public. Increasing self-worth and confidence, and an inner sense of safety. Learning to appreciate one's gifts.
Our therapists specialize in supporting young adults, college students, graduate students, and young professionals with social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and other anxiety-related concerns.
I specialize in working with highly sensitive people who have some social anxiety and recognize that it's making life harder than it needs to be. Together in a supportive environment, we will explore the roots of the social anxiety, use proven methods of shifting any fears of being around other people, and learn new ways to interact with others that feel good to you and don't set off the alarm bells.
