Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a psychotherapist I can employ various techniques and approaches to help someone with social anxiety disorder. Here are some common methods:
1. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This approach focuses on identifying and challenging negative thoughts and beliefs related to social situations. By examining and restructuring these thoughts, individuals can develop more realistic and positive thinking patterns.
2. Exposure Therapy: This technique involves gradually exposing individuals to social situations that provoke anxiety. The therapist helps create a supportive and safe environment for the person to face their fears and develop coping strategies. Over time, repeated exposure can help desensitize the person to anxiety-provoking situations.
3. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR): Mindfulness techniques, such as meditation and breathing exercises, can help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and bodily sensations. By practicing mindfulness, individuals can learn to manage their anxiety symptoms and increase their tolerance for discomfort in social situations.
4. Social Skills Training: This involves teaching individuals specific social skills, such as effective communication, assertiveness, and conflict resolution. By practicing these skills in therapy sessions and real-life situations, individuals can improve their confidence and ability to interact with others.
5. Supportive Therapy: Providing a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to express their feelings and fears can be essential. The therapist can offer emotional support, validation, and guidance throughout the therapeutic process.
6. Medication: In some cases, medication may be prescribed alongside therapy to help manage the symptoms of social anxiety disorder. Psychotherapists may work collaboratively with psychiatrists or other medical professionals to determine the need for medication.
It's important to note that the specific approach used may vary depending on the therapist's training, the severity of the individual's symptoms, and their preferences. A psychotherapist will typically tailor the treatment plan to the unique needs and goals of each person with social anxiety disorder.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting, whether you're worried about being judged, saying the wrong thing, or how others perceive you. You might find yourself overthinking conversations, avoiding situations, or replaying interactions long after they've ended. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to explore and process feelings that contribute to social anxiety. Together, we can work toward feeling more comfortable being yourself around others, less caught up in fear of judgment, and freer to engage in the relationships and experiences that matter to you.

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.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Social anxiety can show up as fear of being judged, worrying about how others perceive you, difficulty speaking up, feeling tense or high anxiety in social settings, wanting to cancel plans or isolate, a fear of judgement, or replaying conversations and interactions in your mind. You may feel pressure to perform, hide parts of yourself, or experience physical symptoms of anxiety when around others. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field in mind to help release the deeper roots of social fear and tension. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports you in feeling safer, more grounded in your body, and more able to show up as your authentic self with greater ease.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel unusually high-stakes. You may worry about being judged, saying the wrong thing, seeming awkward, or disappointing others, and then replay conversations afterward looking for what you could have done differently. Over time, this can lead to avoidance, self-consciousness, and feeling disconnected even when you want closer relationships. I help clients explore the fears and protective patterns underneath social anxiety with curiosity rather than shame. Through mindfulness, relational awareness, and gradual practice, we can build greater self-trust and help social situations feel less like a performance and more like genuine connection.

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.

Social anxiety reflects fears of visibility, judgment, and emotional exposure. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration with somatic awareness to understand how relational fear is held in both the body and inner life.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counsellor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt your heart race—wondering what people are thinking about you, or wishing you could disappear before anyone notices? Social anxiety can make even simple moments—talking in class, attending church, meeting new people—feel like survival. Over time, the worry turns into withdrawal, and loneliness begins to take root.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand how exhausting it is to overthink every word and every glance. Our Christian counselors help you quiet the noise of self-criticism, retrain your body’s stress response, and build confidence that lasts beyond the next conversation.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use faith-integrated, evidence-based methods—including CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic grounding, and exposure techniques—combined with biblical truth and compassionate guidance to help you:
• Calm the physical symptoms of anxiety in social settings
• Overcome fear of judgment and rejection
• Strengthen communication and self-expression
• Build authentic connections and trust
• Restore peace through a renewed sense of identity in Christ
You don’t have to live trapped inside your own thoughts. With practical tools, gentle exposure, and spiritual grounding, you can learn to walk into any room with calm confidence—rooted not in others’ approval, but in God’s love for you.
If you’re ready to stop hiding and start living freely, Rising Calm Center is here to help you find your voice and your peace again.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Social anxiety isn't just about being "shy"—it is a full-body experience of hyper-vigilance, self-doubt, and the constant fear of being judged. For high-achieving individuals, it often manifests as an exhausting habit of over-analyzing every conversation, worrying about how you are being perceived, and feeling an overbearing pressure to perform flawlessly in social or professional settings. Privately, this loops into intense post-event rumination, a loud inner critic, and a profound sense of loneliness because it feels safer to isolate than to risk being misunderstood or exposed.I provide specialized, compassionate counselling support for individuals navigating the heavy weight of social anxiety, fears, and chronic self-consciousness. Together, we tackle social anxiety from both a mindset and a physiological standpoint. We use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to gently untangle the hyper-critical thought patterns, challenge anxious predictions, and build practical mindset tools to navigate social environments.Because social anxiety instantly triggers your nervous system's survival response—causing physical symptoms like a racing heart, shallow breathing, muscle tension, or a desire to completely shut down—traditional talk therapy can keep you trapped in your head. To bypass that cognitive loop, we integrate tailored breathing techniques, somatic tools, and visual exercises alongside neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting. Looking beneath the surface allows us to safely target, process, and release the physical trauma of feeling unsafe or exposed in front of others. Together, we will calm your nervous system so you can reclaim your boundaries, quiet the self-doubt, and navigate connections with a genuine sense of safety and ease.
