Starting Social anxiety counseling

What is Social anxiety counseling?

Social anxiety counseling helps people better understand and manage the anxiety they experience in or because of social interactions. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings as a result of social interactions or settings and they’re affecting your day-to-day life, you should seek social anxiety counseling with one of our trained Thriveworks Littleton therapists. The social anxiety therapists at Thriveworks can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day social anxiety or your social anxiety disorder.

How does Social anxiety counseling work?

Social anxiety counseling involves talking to a therapist about your social anxiety symptoms, potential causes, and more. Your therapist will then work with you to determine where your social anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.

Is Social anxiety counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks social anxiety counseling in Littleton, CO is conducted both in person and through online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Social anxiety counseling last?

Social anxiety counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, depending on the severity of one’s social anxiety as well as their needs and preferences.

Need more help deciding?

It is always your little way of getting out of situations. That one little thing you use all the time.

Let’s see what it is this week: Maybe it’s a new pimple or that strange freckle that prevents you from going on that date. Maybe you have an assignment that you can say you need to do to get out of that picnic. Maybe you have the slightest headache and can use that. All of these are excuses to get out of your social situation.

You hang on to that one little thing like it is your last lifeline. It will not save you.

Using these excuses habitually is a symptom of social anxiety or social phobia. Millions of Americans suffer from this condition, and many (if not most) of them are not very different from you. They have families. They have jobs. They have friends. And they have other responsibilities just like you. They also have one their own “little things” that they use as their escape.

The major difference between all of these other people with the same ailment as you, is whether they are actively treating it or not. The ones who continue their lives not receiving treatment for social anxiety disorder are also the ones continuing to use that one little thing.

Do not let that little thing become your crutch.

The licensed therapists, counselors, and other mental health providers at Thriveworks in Littleton, CO are skilled in helping persons with social anxiety and social anxiety disorder. Our counselors have an extensive list of tools and exercises to get your social life back on track and heading in the right direction.

The compassionate anxiety counselors at Thriveworks in Littleton, CO can help you not only overcome these symptoms but also feel normal and positive around others, having the fortitude to make new friends and obtain a healthy social life.

Some symptoms of social anxiety disorder include the following:

  • Nervousness in crowds

  • Nausea and other physical symptoms when being approached by others
