Social Anxiety
Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
Social anxiety can leave us feeling overly focused on how we are coming across to others. You may find yourself worrying about saying the wrong thing, replaying interactions long after they have ended, or holding back out of fear of being judged.
In therapy, we can explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, helping you build confidence and feel more comfortable showing up as yourself.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Therapy focuses on identifying critical incidences that informed underlying negative thoughts, fears, and beliefs that may be contributing to anxiety. CBT is used to explore earlier experiences and how they are perpetuating current anxiety symptoms and teaching coping strategies to deal with anxiety. A neurobiological lens is used to understand the impact of stress and brain development.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Social anxiety isn't shyness, and it isn't something you can think your way out of by reminding yourself people aren't watching that closely. It lives in the body, in anticipation, in the replay afterward. I work with clients on the whole cycle of it, not just the moments of avoidance, but the exhaustion of managing it constantly and what it's cost them over time.

Social anxiety is very common and can greatly be helped by re-setting the central nervous system and brain, as well as reframing any negative beliefs and fears that are in the unconscious mind. This can be accomplished through neurofeedback, hypnosis along with learning effective sills and tools.

Social Anxiety
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
If being around others fills you with dread, if you constantly doubt yourself in social situations, if self-consciousness keeps you isolated—you're not alone, and you're not broken. Social anxiety often grows from childhood experiences of being ignored, bullied, teased, or rejected, teaching you that connection equals danger. Together, we'll explore where these fears began, help you distinguish between real threats and anxious thoughts, and gently challenge the beliefs keeping you stuck. You'll learn to regulate your nervous system in social settings, build genuine confidence, and discover that connection can be safe. You don't have to face the world alone anymore. Healing happens one compassionate step at a time.

Social Anxiety
Insomnia Help Canada
Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Living with social anxiety often feels like living in a world filled with invisible barriers—every interaction, no matter how small, can seem overwhelming. Simple activities like speaking up in a meeting, attending a social event, or even making eye contact can trigger a whirlwind of self-doubt, fear of judgment, and physical symptoms like a racing heart or sweating. It’s not just about being shy; it’s a persistent fear that can limit opportunities and strain relationships. I share strategies of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and mindful self-compassion (MSC) to help people gradually confront their anxieties, develop confidence, and rediscover the joy of connection – and life.

Social Anxiety
Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Social anxiety is when a person avoids interacting with people either individually or in groups to lessen the physical, emotional and mental stress they feel when they don't know how to deal with others expectations. Leaning how to best manage anxiety is the first step, unless you had a traumatic experience that created the social distancing behaviours.

Social Anxiety
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Social anxiety is often a protective strategy—a part of your system that is working overtime to shield you from the perceived threat of judgment or rejection. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you move beyond 'just trying to be more social' to understanding the root of the anxiety that makes being seen feel dangerous.
Using a Parts Work lens, we explore the survival strategies—like perfectionism, withdrawal, or constant self-monitoring—that your system developed to keep you safe in social settings. Together, we work to heal the underlying vulnerabilities these parts are protecting, helping you move toward a grounded sense of self-assurance and the freedom to connect with others authentically and with ease.

In therapy, we’ll work to uncover what fuels your fear of judgment or rejection, and gently build confidence in your ability to connect with others. Through mindfulness, nervous-system regulation, and self-compassion, you can begin to feel more at ease and authentic in social spaces, free to show up as yourself.

Burnaby is one of Metro Vancouver's most populous municipalities — home to Simon Fraser University and BCIT, and housing the headquarters of Electronic Arts Canada, Telus, and other major technology companies — creating a therapy demand shaped by tech-sector burnout, academic stress, and a highly multicultural population that includes large Chinese, South Korean, Iranian, and South Asian communities. SFU and BCIT generate significant student mental health demand and clinical training pipelines that feed into the local therapy community. Burnaby Hospital and Royal Columbian Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community that serves residents increasingly priced out of Vancouver proper. Many Burnaby residents access the broader Metro Vancouver therapy ecosystem, and the relative proximity to Vancouver means specialist care is generally accessible.
