Sydney, New South Wales therapist: Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change, registered psychotherapist
Social Anxiety

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change

Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like a minefield. Overthinking every word, dreading being judged, exhausted before you've even walked in the room. If connection feels more draining than fulfilling because of this, let's work together to help you feel more at ease with others. The first step in working with social anxiety is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you. Your mind has simply learned to treat connection as a threat, and that can be unlearned. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where this anxiety comes from and build confidence and tools for showing up as yourself in social situations. My approach centres self-compassion, gradual exposure, and practical strategies that fit your life. You don't have to face this alone. Let's take the first step toward feeling more comfortable in your own skin, with others.

Porcupine Ridge, Victoria therapist: Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy), registered psychotherapist
Social Anxiety

Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)

Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety can make relationships feel both deeply longed for and profoundly difficult. You may find yourself worrying about how you're perceived, holding yourself back, or feeling disconnected from others despite wanting closeness. Rather than seeing these experiences simply as something to overcome, I'm interested in understanding how they developed and the ways they may once have helped you adapt to your environment. Working with social anxiety begins with creating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, collaborative, and paced with care. Together, we'll explore the experiences, relationships, and patterns that have shaped your sense of yourself in relation to others. We may also pay attention to your body's responses, recognising that social anxiety is often carried not only in our thoughts but in our nervous system. My approach is grounded in understanding before fixing. Through curiosity, compassion, and a genuine therapeutic relationship, there is an opportunity to experience yourself differently—to develop greater trust in yourself, feel more at ease with others, and discover new ways of relating that feel more authentic and free.

Social Anxiety

Adima Hawkes

Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
This world is crazy and in a mess. This is often frightening. When you are highly sensitive (read this too) or rather introvert, one can easily wish to retreat from social activities. The thing is that w ARE social beings and in a way need to be totters and share as a nourishment and inspiration fro our soul. Meeting the anxiety will be as you unique as you are. The theme is a bit similar to what I wrote in "Life Transitions" , "Depression", and "Highly Sensitive Person" maybe you also want to read one of these. You are welcome when you are open to step out of the prison, you do not need to know how... we will find out together.
