Our Approach to Social Anxiety Therapy

We recognize that social anxiety is unique to each individual. Our therapists create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. We draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and exposure therapy to help you effectively manage your anxiety.

What to Expect in Social Anxiety Therapy

Your therapy journey starts with an initial assessment where your therapist will get to know you and understand your experiences with social anxiety. Together, you’ll create a treatment plan that outlines your goals and the strategies you’ll use to achieve them. Depending on your needs, therapy may involve individual sessions, group therapy, or a combination of both.
