Social Anxiety
Tala Abu Rahma
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
Our work starts by acknowledging the social, cultural, and environmental conditions that may contribute to the problems that affect your quality of life and capacity to receive or engage in mental health care. Therapy is tailored to your preferences to minimize stressors and build skills for interacting more effectively with the outside world. The behaviors, emotions, relationship patterns, or self-beliefs that no longer work for you can be transformed, rather than pathologized by identifying external power imbalances that impede quality of life and highlighting the good intentions behind difficult interactions.

Who wants to feel better?
You, or else you wouldn't be looking at psychotherapists websites. But wait, there's more...maybe you're not sure you can feel better. Maybe you've never been to a psychotherapist before & this is all new to you or was something that "other people" did.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
People with social anxiety often have a number of self-defeating attitudes that underpin their social anxiety. First, they wrongly think they must perform perfectly well. They also usually think that they need the approval of significant others, that it is awful to experience disapproval and failure. They also tend to wrongly believe that rejection and failure prove they are inadequate as people. I teach you that yes there are practical implications of disapproval and failure, but there need not be unhealthy anxiety about these consequences. I teach healthy attitudes toward one's self, one's rejections and failures. I teach you to have a desire to be accepted by others and do well but to accept yourself unconditionally even when you are rejected and fail.

Donna M Torbico - HEAL & GROW for ACoAs

This is caused by negative, usually unrealistic beliefs about ourselves & others. It is underpinned by actual childhood rejections, which now are projected out onto everyone we meet, especially onto strangers.

Make Marriage Better
Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we approach social anxiety with the understanding that it often arises from deeply rooted fears of judgment, rejection, or inadequacy. Our method focuses on uncovering the most fundamental layer of this, or the "core fear", and identifying the “chief defense” individuals develop to protect themselves, such as avoidance, excessive people-pleasing, or self-criticism. Using the Deconstructing Anxiety™ model, we guide clients to do the opposite of these defenses, allowing them to gradually face their fears in a safe, supportive way. This approach helps clients build confidence, enhance their communication skills, and experience greater ease in social settings. As they gain a stronger sense of self, individuals find their relationships and social connections improve, fostering a more fulfilling and connected life.
