Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Social anxiety is not a flaw or a personal failure. It is a survival response shaped by early experiences where safety, acceptance, or connection were missing. It arises from a “wound” that leaves a person feeling unlovable or unsafe, often creating chronic tension and fear in social situations. Healing involves compassionate self-inquiry, understanding the anxiety as a signal rather than a problem, exploring how it manifests in the body, and gradually rebuilding authentic connections that restore a sense of safety and belonging.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
It’s not that you’re bad at connection—some parts of you just don’t feel safe in it.
If social situations leave you feeling anxious, self-conscious, or like you constantly need to monitor how you show up, you’re not alone. Social anxiety often stems from parts of us that carry past experiences of rejection, embarrassment, or not being accepted for who we are. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you gently connect with these protective parts, understand their fears, and begin to unburden the beliefs that keep you stuck in self-doubt. Together, we create space for confidence, authenticity, and the kind of connection that feels safe and real.

Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC)(ACCT), B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to fear of judgment, avoidance of social situations, and difficulty expressing oneself confidently. It can affect relationships, work, and overall quality of life. I offer a safe and understanding space where clients can explore these concerns without pressure or criticism.
My approach focuses on building emotional safety, self-confidence, and practical coping skills. Through gradual support, clients learn to manage anxious thoughts, strengthen self-trust, and feel more comfortable engaging in social and professional settings at their own pace.

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.

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.

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.
