Announcement: Social Anxiety Group Starting Soon
We are excited to announce that DC CBT’s in-person social anxiety treatment group will start soon!
The Building Social Confidence Group is a skills-based, in-person, experiential group to assist individuals in breaking the cycle of social anxiety and making meaningful social connections.
What we will do in Group:
- Learn cognitive skills to reframe anxious thoughts.
- Develop a plan to confront anxiety-provoking situations.
- Practice social interactions during group time.
- Conduct out-of-session practice between meetings.
How to Join the BSC Group
Potential group members will first have a short, no-cost consultation call by phone or video with Dr. Noguchi. We will discus what interests you about group, as well as what expectations and goals you have for group therapy. We will ask some questions to get to know you better and provide more information about the group.
Toward the end of the consultation call, we will discuss if the BSC group might be an appropriate fit for you and if so, schedule a 45-minute screening session ($100). This session is common practice to address a range of matters including your social anxiety concerns, group therapy expectations, and any remaining questions.
Don’t worry if this sounds complex, we will guide you through the process.
Details:
- Mixed gender group, individuals 18+
- When: Tuesday evenings, 7:00-8:30 pm*
- Location: In-person, Dupont Circle office
- Duration: 12 weeks, each session 90 mins

*We understand that this might be a late start time. As such, we are looking to see if it is possible to start group slightly earlier or shift to another day if that works well with group members.
