About Social Anxiety
Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) is the second most common anxiety disorder, affecting approximately 12% of Americans at some point in their lives.

CBT with exposure therapy is the gold-standard treatment; SSRIs (Zoloft, Lexapro) and SNRIs are effective medications.
Social Anxiety is highly treatable with the right care. BCBS covers social anxiety treatment at Lyte Psychiatry under its mental health benefit.
