Social Anxiety Disorder causes intense fear in everyday social situations — from speaking, meeting new people, or even answering a phone call. At VICC Psychiatry, we understand the deep impact this can have on your career, relationships, and self-confidence. Our care approach is supportive, judgment-free, and evidence-based, available through telehealth or in-person visits.
Types
- Performance anxiety (public speaking, presentations)
- Generalized social anxiety (multiple social fears)
- Situational social anxiety (specific settings or triggers)
- Social anxiety with panic attacks
- Social anxiety co-occurring with depression or substance use
Treatment(s)
