Is social anxiety disorder caused by trauma and bullying?

In order to answer this question we talk about social anxiety -- what it is, what it looks like -- as well as why it might show up. I also share some interventions to help kids who are socially anxious. This podcast and website represents the opinions of me, Dawn Friedman MSEd.
