Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with social anxiety, you may feel tense or self-conscious in conversations, meetings, or social gatherings. You might replay interactions afterward, worrying about what you said or how you were perceived. Even small social situations can feel draining, and you may avoid opportunities because the anticipation feels overwhelming.
At Selah Counselling, we approach social anxiety with compassion and practical support. Social anxiety is not a lack of confidence. It is often a nervous system response shaped by past experiences, fear of judgment, or heightened sensitivity to social cues. Together, we work on calming the body’s stress response, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and building gradual exposure in a way that feels manageable. Our goal is to help you participate more fully in your life with greater steadiness, self-trust, and confidence in your voice.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for individuals struggling with social anxiety, shyness, or discomfort in social situations. I understand how social fears can impact confidence, relationships, and daily functioning, and believes that healing begins with self-compassion, understanding, and gradual, achievable steps.

My approach emphasizes empowerment, self-awareness, and practicing new skills in a supportive, guided way.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you fear others are judging you? Do you walk through the world trying to manage your body, your expressions, your actions, your breathing for fear of being noticed, humiliated, or rejected by others? Do you simply feel 'not good enough' in the eyes of yourself and others? Are you tired of working so hard to cope with your anxiety without ever truly feeling better? If so, you may be suffering from social anxiety and likely from the loneliness that comes from living behind the mask that others are allowed to see. At Transforming Emotions, we use integrative therapy techniques from a foundation of emotion focused therapy to help you get to the root of your social anxiety. We aim to identify and heal the underlying experiences of fear and shame that tend to underpin the experience of social anxiety and negative self-judgment. Contact us today for a free consultation to help us match you to the right therapist for your unique needs.

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.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
I help women who are suffering with social anxiety. Social anxiety usually stems from past negative social experiences and low self esteem. I know what it’s like, I have been there, maybe you have the anxious thoughts before a social event, like "What if this happens? What if I make a fool of myself?" And maybe you have anxious thoughts during a conversation "Oh no, can they tell I am anxious? Do I sound stupid?" And the mortifying feels afterward "Did I say something embarrassing?!" I know the struggle, and I can help you become more confident socially by working with the root cause of your social anxiety and give you the tools to manage it. Message me for a free 15 minute phone consult and we can get started finding you some relief and confidence!

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.

Social Anxiety
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
For some people, their social anxiety is largely a physical response: Their heart pounds, their palms get sweaty, they get so flooded with stress hormones that it's hard for them to think straight.
We can work together to teach the body how to move more efficiently through that stress so it can feel safer sooner...and better yet, start addressing the original trigger so that social situations don't need to cause such a stressful reaction to beging with.
