Did you know that shyness is actually NOT a character trait but a stress response of being around others? It has to do with a lack of self-esteem and self-acceptance often tied to a history of ECEs (early childhood experiences).

We offer specialized treatment for Social Anxiety.
Social anxiety is a condition characterized by excessive fear and self-consciousness in social situations. It can often lead to avoidance of social situations altogether, which further reinforces feelings of isolation and low self-esteem. Social anxiety can be a debilitating condition if not addressed and treated. However, with the right guidance and support, it is possible to overcome social anxiety and live a fulfilling life with healthy social interactions.
Living with social anxiety can be very debilitating and detrimental to your daily life. If you're struggling with social anxiety, you may find yourself avoiding others, feeling extremely anxious in social situations, feeling hopeless or overly critical of yourself. My goal as a therapist is to work together as a team to identify your thinking patterns and to develop tools to use in everyday situations.
