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.

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.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help high achievers and perfectionists manage social anxiety by addressing the root causes of their fear and discomfort in social situations. Together, we work to challenge the critical self-judgments and unrealistic standards that often fuel their anxiety. I provide strategies to build confidence and ease anxiety in social settings, helping them feel more comfortable and authentic in interactions. By exploring underlying beliefs about performance and rejection, I guide clients toward greater self-compassion and acceptance. My goal is to help them develop healthier, more fulfilling relationships while reducing the emotional toll of social pressure.
