Social Anxiety
Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
For treating social anxiety, I use a collaborative approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Together, we'll identify and challenge the negative thought patterns that fuel your anxiety in social situations. By gradually exposing you to feared situations in a safe and structured way, we work to reduce the power of those fears. Over time, this process helps you build confidence, improve your social skills, and foster a greater sense of control in interactions. Ultimately, my goal is to help you engage more freely and comfortably with others, improving your social experiences and overall well-being.

Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
If you experience intense anxiety in social situations you may be struggling with social anxiety disorder (social phobia). Social anxiety is the fear of judgment from others, whether it’s new people, authority figures, romantic interests, friends, acquaintances or strangers. This can make it difficult to do things like make friends, ask for a raise, go on dates, attend parties, or give speeches.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so you can reclaim your life from anxiety and move towards the nourishing connections you crave.

Social Anxiety
Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety, including social anxiety, is an adaptive response to stress. Without it, much wouldn't get done. However sometimes anxiety does it's job too well or works too hard, making it hard to complete tasks requiring social interaction. I utilize parts work to help people get to know this part of themselves, learn how it's trying to help you, and meet needs it may have in a more adaptive way.

Allie Kaelin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, APCC
In therapy, I help clients identify negative thought patterns and explore the beliefs that underlie their fear—such as the fear of rejection, not being ‘good enough,’ or making mistakes in front of others. By bringing awareness to these thoughts, we can begin to challenge their accuracy and replace them with more realistic, balanced ways of thinking.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
There are many root causes of social anxiety. While some people are naturally introverted, anxiety is an unnecessary extension of that. Social anxiety can also become entrained through conscious or unconscious habits of thought and expectation based on past experiences. No matter what your personality type or prior traumas you don't have to suffer with anxiety in any social situation, whether at a party, giving a presentation at work, or interacting with a clerk at the store. Using hypnosis I will help you resolve any negative feels around previously triggering situations and help you discover inner strength and confidence that will allow you to function well in any social situation.
