Social Anxiety Group
Worried about what others think? Feel tongue tied when you try to speak? Join our social anxiety group for adults!
What is it?
The social anxiety therapy group is a structured, intensive, 20-week, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program designed to help members learn how to overcome their social anxiety (social phobia). Members choose and work on personal goals for their participation in the group, such as: socializing, making friends, dating, increasing assertiveness, advancing one's career, overcoming public speaking fear, and other performance anxiety. This program will also help members to identify and change the unhealthy core beliefs that cause and worsen their social anxiety and related problems (eg. depression, poor self-esteem).
How does it work?
Groups are made up of 6-9 members who are at least 18 years of age. The groups meet weekly for 1.5 hour sessions on Monday evenings at 6:30pm, starting December 2nd, 2019, for five months. We aren’t just talking during those sessions; we spend a lot of group time each week doing exercises in which we learn and practice skills and strategies to lessen anxiety, increase self-confidence, and improve our interactions with others.
How do I sign up?
If you would like more information or want to sign up for the group please e-mail Cara@nyccognitivetherapy.com and provide your name and telephone number. We will then get in contact with you to answer any questions.
Cost is $175 for the private intake session and $80 per group session, NYU insurance accepted.
