Keri Downs, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Keri Downs specializes in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with social anxiety. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to help clients manage and overcome their social anxiety.
Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is characterized by intense fear and anxiety in social situations. This can include fear of being judged, embarrassed, or scrutinized by others. Dr. Downs employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to social anxiety. She also integrates exposure therapy, a CBT method that gradually exposes clients to feared social situations in a controlled and supportive environment, helping them build confidence and reduce anxiety.
In addition to CBT and exposure therapy, Dr. Downs incorporates mindfulness techniques to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. Her holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and improved social functioning.
Dr. Downs provides a compassionate and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their fears and develop effective coping strategies. She also offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Dr. Downs is dedicated to helping individuals with social anxiety achieve greater confidence and lead more fulfilling social lives.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Treating social anxiety requires a multifaceted approach that addresses the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects of the condition. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy, I collaborate with clients to challenge negative thought patterns, reduce avoidance behaviors, and gradually confront feared social situations. Through structured exercises and role-playing, clients learn to reframe anxious thoughts, develop coping strategies, and build confidence in their social interactions.
