A Non-Profit Organization



Did you know that approximately 7% of the population
suffers from some form of social anxiety disorder?


Social Anxiety is the third largest
mental health care problem in the world today


Please read over these pages on social anxiety disorder (social phobia.)  

In these pages you will find:

--  a definition of social anxiety disorder
--  practical examples of what life is like for people with social anxiety, 
--  an invitation to join a free moderated mailing list edited specifically for people with social anxiety disorder 
--  a listing of cognitive-behavioral therapy groups for social anxiety throughout the world.  Unfortunately, after all this time, very few therapy groups exist.  Cognitive-behavioral (rational) therapy groups will be linked.  Perhaps you would like to start one. 
--  Graduate students or licensed therapists interested in running therapy groups for social anxiety?  Program initiatives underway to be announced here.
--  We have had a good number of people complete their master's or doctoral-level internship with us.  We are open to more universities with graduate programs who want to place their students in a non-profit, educational and/or clinical setting.
