Social anxiety is often best treated with a combination of psychotherapy (incorporating CBT and behavioral models) and medication (such as a non addictive beta blocker).
I utilize a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach to treating social anxiety that explores a client's history and experience with social situations as well as learning new skills for managing negative thoughts and worries about one's self that arise in response to social situations. We will also establish collaborative goals for improvement in social situations and I will support you in practicing and pursuing satisfying social connections.

Life Coach, Certified Conscious Uncoupling Coach | Certified Calling in "The One" Coach
At it's core, social anxiety indicates a challenge with disempowered relationships, which are affecting our sense of ourselves, and how we assume others feel about us, and what we feel is possible or not possible for us. My coaching works specifically to shift this core sense of self, and provides skills and tools to transform our experience and relationships with others.
The pandemic set many on a path to social anxiety, and today's world leaves much uncertain in the social jungle. I offer a safe space to process these stressors, and will champion you for just making the call to talk and start working towards growth in this area.
I support individuals in managing and overcoming the challenges associated with excessive fear and discomfort in social situations. I aim to provide a safe and empathetic environment for clients to explore the root causes of their social anxiety, understand its impact on their lives, and develop effective strategies for coping and thriving.
Anxiety is something that impacts all of us. For many, there’s a general sense of dread or feeling of being unsafe that holds us back from life. For some, social anxiety is a significant barrier to creating connection with others. Anxiety can show up in our thoughts as well as our bodies, and it can prevent us from living the life we want. The most important thing to remember when it comes to anxiety is that most of our fearful thoughts are false. Your brain sends a compelling signal that you’re in mortal danger, but most times the stakes just aren’t that high. Learn how to challenge that signal and lead a richer, more full life.
