Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
Social anxiety can feel like a spotlight that is constantly shining on you. Together in therapy we will work to understand why that spotlight feels so harsh or scary. By exploring past experiences and the critical voices they may have created, we can weaken their power.

Elevated Healing Treatment Centers
Treatment Center
Social Anxiety can be debilitating, making everyday interactions feel overwhelming and isolating. At Elevated Healing Treatment Centers, we understand the profound impact that social anxiety can have on individuals' lives, and we offer specialized support to help clients overcome their fears and regain confidence in social situations.
Our approach to treating social anxiety combines evidence-based therapies with compassionate care, tailored to each individual's unique needs. Through cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and mindfulness techniques, we help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and gradually confront feared situations in a supportive environment.
Additionally, we offer social skills training and group therapy sessions focused on building confidence and improving interpersonal communication. These opportunities provide a safe space for clients to practice new skills, receive feedback, and connect with others who understand their struggles.
Our goal is to empower individuals with social anxiety to navigate social interactions with greater ease and confidence, ultimately allowing them to participate more fully in life and relationships.

David Eshleman
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
So often shame and social anxiety are tied together. It has been said that "It is a joy to be hidden and a disaster not to be found". I find this to be very true. We all desire closeness and intimacy, however, often when we experience conditional worth, shame based parenting and other traumas early in our lives, we can naturally develop a fear of people. Social anxiety is to be afraid of being ourselves for fear of rejection or some other shame/imperfection. Learning to love ourselves, heal from the shame, and reclaim our birthright of belonging is the work.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I run a group for young adult women who struggle with social anxiety. This group allows each member to learn about anxiety, to share what they struggle, to learn coping strategies, and to gain some support from other members. With the pandemic and quarantine, many clients have begun to struggle with social anxiety and I work with these clients to learn how to understand the anxiety they feel and how it impacts their daily life.

Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Challenge your negative and anxious thoughts. At times it may feel like there’s nothing you can do about the way you feel and how you think. In reality, though, there are a number of things that can help.
Be mindful. Being mindful and practicing mindful meditation helps you to be present and aware of your thoughts and feelings in a non-judgmental and positive way.
Go to a coffee shop. If you enjoy watching movies online or catching up on your favorite TV show, then try taking your tablet or laptop to your nearest coffee shop.
Create an exposure hierarchy. Identify and rate how each social situation makes you feel in terms of anxiousness. For example, 0 would mean no anxiety, and 10 would be a full-blown panic attack.
Don’t focus on yourself. It’s hard to stop the endless mind chatter when you’re in situations that make you particularly anxious. We often turn inward and focus on ourselves and how others will perceive us, almost always assuming it will be negative.
Adopt a healthier lifestyle to reduce anxiety.

With the guidance of a therapist, we can work towards developing effective coping mechanisms, enhancing self-esteem, and challenging negative thoughts that contribute to SAD. Together, we can create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals in managing social anxiety.
