This 6 week, in-person skills group is intended to support, teach, and guide individuals who suffer with fear of public speaking, meeting new people, engaging in social events, starting conversations, and being more assertive in their lives. We will be using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and In-Vivo Exposure practices to reinforce skills and embrace discomfort. Don’t let social anxiety keep you from living your life in a way you wish to. Lastly, you will also learn strategies to help manage physical reactions with calming techniques and positive affirmations. Come sit with us, while we also meet new people with similar challenges. Group will require prescreening.
