When "Just Be Yourself" Feels Impossible

Does the thought of a social situation fill you with intense anxiety? You might be constantly worried about being judged, making a mistake, or being embarrassed. It's more than just "being shy"—it's an exhausting, chronic fear that can make you want to avoid everyday interactions altogether.

Living with social anxiety can feel like you're always on stage, being scrutinized by others. You may feel significant distress when:

  • Being the center of attention

  • Meeting new people or authority figures

  • Being watched while doing something

  • Having to speak in a public setting

  • Worrying that you'll look anxious and be judged for it

My Approach to Building Confidence

You don't have to be stuck in this cycle. Social anxiety is highly treatable, and I am here to help.

My approach is practical, collaborative, and grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is proven to be highly effective for social anxiety.

Together, we won't just talk about your anxiety; we will actively work to:

  • Understand and challenge the fearful thoughts that hold you back.

  • Identify the root of your self-consciousness.

  • Develop powerful coping skills to manage anxiety in the moment.

  • Gradually and safely build your confidence in the situations that matter most to you.

You Can Feel at Ease with Others

You deserve to connect with people and move through your life without this constant fear. My goal is to help you feel calmer, clearer, and more confident.

If you're ready to break this cycle, I invite you to contact me today.
