Social Anxiety
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Cognitive behavioral therapy uses a variety of direct methods to help patients modify their thoughts and emotional reactions to stressors like social situations. Using psychodynamic techniques, we will work together to gain insight into the emotional roots of unhealthy attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. Based on the idea that avoiding the things we fear tends to reinforce anxiety, exposure therapy encourages people to encounter the sources of their anxieties in a controlled, deliberate way.

Aguib Diop
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
While most of us place some value on our personal and professional reputations, what happens when we're in constant fear of these reputations being tarnished or attacked? For those with social anxiety disorders, the result is the avoidance of people, experiences and opportunities that could result in life’s enjoyment. If you have a social anxiety disorder, our shared goal will be to gradually confront these avoided situations. After experiencing each situation, your original thoughts will be reframed to match this experience rather than the feared worst-case scenario. You’ll also apply coping strategies that help you feel at ease while confronting situations. You may even learn to laugh at yourself, which is almost always a win.

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.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Do you find yourself afraid of what others will say or think? Do these fears keep you from living out loud? Maybe you feel social anxiety only in certain situations, and not in others. Regardless, when social anxiety is high, many people find that their life gets smaller, or they get quieter - usually when it matters most. We can focus on learning ways to overcome social anxiety through patience and skill building, but always for a purpose - to live more in line with what matters.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
People with social anxiety find it very hard to interact with others and will do whatever possible to avoid it. They constantly second guess themselves, and attribute any negative interaction to their own failure to relate. They also anticipate negative consequences even before attempting to interact. Luckily, through cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral techniques, you can overcome this problem.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you worry about saying just the *right* thing on a first date? Do you replay conversations you had with co-workers or your partner and beat yourself up because you didn't say something perfectly? Do you feel like you have to rehearse over and over what you're going to say before you say it so that person doesn't reject you or think you're an idiot? These are all common indicators of social anxiety and they don't have to keep ruling your life. It is possible to let go of needing to show up perfectly in conversations and not beat yourself up. Let me show you how!
