Social Anxiety
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in social anxiety, my approach to treatment is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and social skills training, I work collaboratively with individuals to address underlying fears and negative thought patterns related to social situations. By gradually exposing clients to feared social scenarios in a supportive environment, we work together to challenge avoidance behaviors and develop effective coping strategies. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-compassion, assertiveness training, and relaxation techniques to manage anxiety symptoms. My goal is to empower individuals to overcome social anxiety, build confidence in social interactions, and cultivate meaningful connections with others.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Social anxiety is more than just being afraid to speak in public, for many people social anxiety is fear of being judged by other people in any social setting to the extent that they usually decline any social events. Treating social anxiety involves trying to find the source for the anxiety and the negative beliefs that have become part of the client's self beliefs so that we can desensitize, reframe, reprocess, and replace these negative beliefs with improved self-confidence. We will also use visualization exercises in which the client will imagine a social setting and being comfortable with who they are in social settings.

Louise Perry
Therapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
Social anxiety can make even everyday interactions feel daunting. Feeling self-conscious, fearing judgment, or struggling to find your voice can leave you feeling isolated and misunderstood. As an Art and IFS (Internal Family Systems) Psychotherapist, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore these fears and insecurities without pressure.
Together, we’ll use creative expression to give shape to the emotions and worries that may be hard to articulate. Through IFS, we can gently uncover the protective parts of you that seek to shield you from rejection or criticism, helping these parts feel seen, understood, and ultimately less fearful. At the same time, we’ll nurture the more confident, social parts of you that long to connect with others more freely.
My aim is to support you as you gradually build self-confidence, reduce social discomfort, and reclaim the sense of ease and authenticity you deserve. You can learn to feel more comfortable in your own skin and at peace in the presence of others—and I’m here to help guide you on that journey.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I address social anxiety with a compassionate and faith-centered approach, integrating psychological insights with Christian principles to guide individuals toward overcoming their fears. Recognizing the challenges associated with social anxiety, I create a supportive environment that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on faith. Drawing upon biblical teachings on courage, trust in God, and the value of community, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of social anxiety and develop coping strategies. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and an understanding of one's worth in Christ, the counselor empowers individuals to face social situations with confidence. This integrated approach seeks to address the psychological and spiritual aspects of social anxiety, fostering a sense of belonging and ease within social interactions within the context of their Christian beliefs.
