My daughter has social anxiety, is this treatable?

My 9-year-old daughter has social anxiety. I want to treat her without medication. What are my options?

Yes. You should start perhaps by seeing a child psychologist and behavioral pediatrician who may be able to come to a more structured diagnosis and suggest options if needed. This may simply be a variation of normal behavior and social skills.
