Social anxiety is a major focus area of my practice. I will help you understand the causes and give you tools to overcome this potentially debilitating disorder.
Social anxiety is a combination of fears that have a root in past experiences. It is the way we have found to protect ourselves after a traumatic experience. I help connect with our inner strengths as we understand the root of our fear, the purpose it is serving, and different ways to heal.
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, EMDR-Certified
I work with clients who are struggling with self-worth, limiting beliefs, and anxiety that becomes debilitating when they are in social situations. I typically use Coherence therapy or EMDR.
Through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other evidence based practices, clients are able to find relief through changing thought patterns and creating new associations. My approach includes helping your autonomic nervous system to return to a calm state even while experiencing triggering situations.
