How to Be Yourself

Quiet Your Inner Critic and Rise Above Social Anxiety. Picking up where Quiet ended, from our own Savvy Psychologist comes the best book you'll ever read about how to conquer social anxiety. But Dr. Ellen Hendriksen proposes a groundbreaking idea: you already have everything you need to succeed in any unfamiliar social situation. As someone who lives with social anxiety herself, Dr. Hendriksen has devoted her career to helping her patients overcome the same obstacles she has. With both familiarity and authority, Dr. Hendriksen talks the reader through the roots of social anxiety and why it endures; how it’s wired into our brains and how we can change our brains through our behavior; and how to quiet your Inner Critic (the voice that says, You can’t). Using her techniques to develop confidence, ease panic, and relax in the face of uncertainty, you can finally be yourself.
