Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting—leaving you second-guessing yourself or avoiding situations that matter to you. 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.

Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
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.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I help clients with social anxiety by gently unpacking the fear of judgment, rejection, or humiliation that can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. While social anxiety can be part of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), it’s also often a natural response for neurodivergent individuals navigating a world not designed for their communication styles or sensory needs. Therapy focuses on building self-compassion, developing coping strategies, and supporting clients in expressing themselves authentically while gradually expanding their sense of safety in social spaces.

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.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety is a common condition characterized by intense fear or apprehension in social situations. Individuals with social anxiety may worry excessively about being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated in public or among peers. This can lead to avoidance of social interactions and impact daily functioning and relationships. Symptoms can include rapid heartbeat, sweating, trembling, and difficulty speaking. It's crucial to recognize that social anxiety is a manageable condition, and seeking help is an important step toward overcoming these challenges. Therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, and support from friends and family can play a significant role in building confidence and improving social skills. With the right strategies, individuals can learn to navigate social situations more comfortably and enhance their overall well-being.

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.

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.
