Social Anxiety
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Social Anxiety is a frequent presenting concern for clients. Often this results in and is perpetuated by avoidance of social situations, and quite frequently is accompanies by uncomfortable physiologic reactions in social situations experienced as threatening. Usually it is the avoidance of the threatening situations that prevent the person from becoming desensitized. On a very simple level, supporting my clients in developing effective ways to calm themselves such as through relaxation training, meditation, or even clinical hypnosis then can be used to help them be able to tolerate gradually increasing their exposure to the threatening situations. If desired, I can support clients in applying a behavioral approach to social anxiety using techniques such as systematic desensitization. Frequently too do I augment this with clinical hypnosis in preparing clients for successfully expanding their social activity. In other cases, working with the beliefs and expectations they have can be helpful using cognitive therapy, either formally or in a more conversational approach. A guiding principal I apply is to empower the client to be actively involved in planning the approach and to continually emphasize the choices they are making rather than have them experience themselves as passively participating in a treatment.

Social Anxiety
Matthew Weisskopf
Psychologist, PhD
I can assist clients with addressing social anxiety with cognitive behavioral therapy approaches. This approach addresses thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors that often underlie social anxiety. When these factors are shifted in a positive direction, this can have significant benefits for social anxiety.
