New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
Social anxiety does not have to interfere with the life you want to live. We want to help you learn what is getting in the way of meaningful and stress-free social interactions - how your thoughts are contributing to the fear and discomfort that you feel in social situations. We also want to help you develop skills so that you can relate to these thoughts a little differently and build confidence in social situations. This includes understanding what is happening in your body when you feel anxious and how you can regulate and establish a feeling of safety.
It IS possible to make new meaningful connections, to not have to analyze each social interaction, and to advocate for yourself at home and work.
Contact us for a complimentary 15-minute consultation - we will connect you with clinicians from our team of trained and passionate registered psychotherapists and social workers so that you can discuss your needs and how we might be able to help.

Grounded Minds Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Are you super uncomfortable in social situations? You may be afraid of being in the spotlight, having other's watch you or judge you. You might find that you struggle with social outings, making eye contact, or feeling comfortable around others. Perhaps avoiding situations works for a short time, but the anxiety doesn't get any better. Social anxiety doesn't have to be something that you just deal with- we can help you learn how to feel more confident and comfortable in situations that scare you. Our approach is gentle and relationship-focused. Together, we may work on uncovering what's underneath anxiety and panic, learning how to approach scary situations, or perhaps learn tools to better manage your fear of judgment or criticism. Let's work together to kick anxiety out of the driver's seat. Please reach out to schedule a therapy session or free 15 minute consultation call.

Social Anxiety
Jess Erb
Registered Psychotherapist, DPsychotherapy
Social anxiety can be debilitating as it often is the very opposite of what one is striving for: connection with others. In my practice, we look at the specifics of what may be bringing someone distress in social situations, what these social situations may be and I help provide tools for being able to rebuild courage and resilience to face these day-to-day stressors.

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.

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!

Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
I support individuals to develop awareness of how anxiety manifests in our bodies, mind, emotions, and behaviours/impulses to act. I take a holistic and mindfulness-based approach to working with anxiety, including developing somatic, behavioural, and cognitive coping strategies. I recognize that most of our suffering comes from believing thoughts that are not true. We may work together to unpack the beliefs that are fueling anxiety and explore how we can create more balanced narratives that can allow us to live in peace.
