Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
An integrative humanistic and trauma informed counselling approach offers a compassionate and comprehensive method to address social anxiety, fostering healing and empowerment for those affected. The roots of social anxiety can be multifaceted, involving genetic predispositions, environmental factors and post traumatic experiences. Humanistic counselling encourages you to develop self-awareness and self-compassion. Through reflective exercises and mindfulness practices, you can gain insight into your thought patterns and emotional responses. This self understanding fosters a more compassionate relationship with yourself, reducing self criticism and enhancing self esteem. An integrative approach will equip you with practical coping strategies to manage social anxiety. Techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation and grounding exercises can help clients regulate their physiological responses to anxiety. Cognitive restructuring and exposure therapy can also be employed to challenge and reframe negative thought patterns and gradually desensitise you to feared social situations. We will collaborate to set achievable goals and celebrate progress. By fostering a sense of agency and self-efficacy, you are encouraged to take an active role in your healing journey. By combining the principles of empathy, validation and empowerment, the approach that I use can help you navigate your anxieties.

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Social anxiety is nearly always the consequence of people pleasing, lack of assertiveness, and the need for approval. If you have the need to be liked and approved of, you will be anxious in social situations. I will help you to identify the experiences that have created this need, and resolve them, so that you are able to consider your own needs first, and value your own opinion above those of anyone else.

Emma Dean
Therapist, MA Hons, DipCaH, PNLP
I'm Emma, an integrative transpersonal practitioner dedicated to guiding you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Through a blend of hypnotherapy, breathwork, meditation, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and spiritual coaching, I create a compassionate safe space for you to connect with the deepest levels of yourself. Social situations don’t have to feel overwhelming or unsafe. Together, we explore the deeper causes of your anxiety and gently shift how you relate to yourself and others. Using evidence-based tools and compassionate inquiry, I help you feel more confident and at ease in connection. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s freedom to show up as your authentic self.

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for social anxiety, including fear of judgment, self-consciousness, overthinking social interactions, and avoidance of situations where you feel observed or evaluated. Social anxiety can often lead to feelings of isolation, exhaustion from “masking,” and a constant concern about how you are perceived by others.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, offering a steady and non-judgemental space to explore both the present-day experience of anxiety in social situations and the deeper emotional and relational roots that may underpin it. Together, we may look at early attachment experiences, internalised beliefs, and past relational dynamics that shape how safety, visibility, and connection are experienced with others.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how experiences of criticism, rejection, bullying, or emotional misattunement can contribute to ongoing social anxiety and sensitivity in relationships. Therapy provides a space to gently explore these experiences and begin to shift the internal patterns that maintain anxiety over time.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you notice how anxiety shows up in the body, such as tension, breath restriction, or nervous system activation, supporting greater grounding and regulation in moments of stress. Psychoeducation may be used to increase understanding of anxiety processes, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional regulation and reduce intensity in anxious states.
Therapy is collaborative and paced according to your needs, helping you develop greater confidence, ease, and self-compassion in social situations, and a more secure sense of self in relation to others.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Social anxiety can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you in your anxiety reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore how social anxiety feels for you, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

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.

Anjali P.
Registered Psychotherapist, MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling, Registered Member MBACP- 408062
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting, intimidating, or emotionally draining. You may worry about being judged, criticised, rejected, or getting something wrong, even when others do not see your struggle. Therapy can help you understand the roots of these fears, build self-confidence, and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others that feel less restricted by anxiety.

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.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Social anxiety may include irrational fears and embarrassment and humiliation due to a lack of self confidence and lack of self worth in one's self, society and one's environment. The individual's work is in the increasing of self confidence and being less aware of the other's judgement or misjustice or evaluation of another.
