JP Robichaud
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social Anxiety can manifest in so many ways - ways that are often discounted as just being "too sensitive" or "a loner". Often the reasons for that kind of anxiety are based on formative socialization experiences. We can take our time and look back at how you learned to be in connection, and discover together what might be able to be un-learned.

Samantha Cervino
Life Coach, Life Coach | Yoga Teacher | Personal Development Mentor | Published Author | Reiki Master, EFT Meridian Tapping Pract.
This is social anxiety: When having to perform in front of or be around others, people with social anxiety disorder tend to Blush, sweat, tremble, feel a rapid heart rate, or feel their “mind going blank” Feel nauseous or sick to their stomach. Show a rigid body posture, make little eye contact, or speak with an overly soft voice. Growing up I had social anxiety and I can understand how it feels as well as I know how to overcome it because I did that for myself. Do not allow social anxiety to stop your growth and crush your self-confidence. I can help you!

Shanna Budzinsky
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social situations can be challenging and they can trigger our sense of danger, especially if we feel we might be judged or put on the spot. Therapy can provide a safe space to explore the fear that accompanies social situations and the therapy relationship can be used to learn and practice new ways of responding. When supporting individuals experiencing social anxiety, I work at a pace that is comfortable for them and empower them to learn and practice skills that will help them feel more competent and confident in social situations.

Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective
Registered Social Worker, RSW
We often tell ourselves stories about what other's are thinking of us, how poorly we've performed in an interaction, or predict how awkward and terrible something may end up being. These kinds of thoughts can increase our anxiety and spur a bunch of avoidance and/or numbing out behaviour. Then we sit at home beating ourselves up, feeling alone and isolated. Therapy can help us shift these stories, take different actions and start to feel more content, confident and authentic in social situations.
