Social Anxiety
Daniel Snow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Please also see the description under 'anxiety or fears'. Social anxiety can hamper the trajectory of life- not meeting people you could have met, not having friends that could have been there for you, and reinforcing anxiety in all its forms while increasing isolation. It is tied to self-judgment, fear of embarrassment, endless 'playbacks' of conversations in the mind, and memories of other situations. But like anxiety in general, it is something that can be overcome. Sometimes we find that what we think of as scary to the point of being unapproachable is much more tame and harmless than we expected, once we get a closer look at the thing we fear.

Social Anxiety
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in social anxiety, my approach to treatment is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and social skills training, I work collaboratively with individuals to address underlying fears and negative thought patterns related to social situations. By gradually exposing clients to feared social scenarios in a supportive environment, we work together to challenge avoidance behaviors and develop effective coping strategies. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-compassion, assertiveness training, and relaxation techniques to manage anxiety symptoms. My goal is to empower individuals to overcome social anxiety, build confidence in social interactions, and cultivate meaningful connections with others.
