Viewpoint Calgary Psychological Services
Psychologist, RPsych
When social anxiety takes over, even everyday interactions—like making small talk, speaking up in a meeting, or entering a room full of people—can feel like high-stakes survival tests. Reeling from a racing heart, overthinking every word, and fearing judgment, you may find yourself constantly avoiding events or analyzing your performance for hours afterward. You shouldn't have to live under the constant pressure of hyper-vigilance, nor should fear keep you isolated from the connections and opportunities you want.
Our therapists offer a warm, non-judgmental space to help you quiet social panic and regain control. Using targeted, evidence-based approaches—such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and gentle exposure strategies—we partner with you to steady your physical reactions, dismantle catastrophic thinking, and rebuild your confidence at your own pace.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Calm Physical Panic: Master practical grounding and nervous-system regulation tools to soothe racing heartbeats, tension, and acute anxiety before and during social situations.
- Challenge the Fear of Judgment: Untangle the exhausting loop of self-criticism, over-analyzing, and the assumption that others are hyper-focusing on your perceived flaws.
- Reclaim Connection & Ease: Step back into social, personal, and professional environments with confidence—building genuine relationships without the urge to hide or avoid.
You don't have to keep letting social anxiety dictate your life or limit your world. Let’s partner together to help you quiet the noise of self-consciousness, step into any room with calm assurance, and connect with ease.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
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. This process supports greater confidence, presence, and emotional freedom in social and intimate situations.

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.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Do you find yourself rehearsing conversations before they happen, replaying interactions long afterward, or worrying that others are judging you? Perhaps you avoid gatherings, hesitate to speak up in meetings or classrooms, or struggle to express yourself even when you have something important to say. Social anxiety can leave you feeling isolated, self-conscious, and frustrated, especially when you genuinely want to connect with others but fear being embarrassed, rejected, or misunderstood.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling for adolescents and adults experiencing social anxiety. My background in counselling, educational support, and community mental health has given me an appreciation for how social experiences, relationships, and our sense of belonging can influence emotional well-being.
Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), person-centred counselling, and trauma-informed principles, I work collaboratively with you to understand the thoughts, emotions, and experiences contributing to your social anxiety. Together, we can explore patterns of self-criticism, develop practical strategies for managing uncomfortable social situations, and gradually build confidence in expressing yourself and connecting with others.
I also recognize that cultural expectations, family dynamics, language differences, and past experiences of criticism or exclusion can influence how comfortable we feel around others. My culturally responsive approach creates space to explore these influences without judgment, while respecting your identity, values, and personal boundaries.
Overcoming social anxiety doesn't mean you need to become outgoing or change your personality. It's about feeling more comfortable being yourself, communicating your needs, and participating in experiences that matter to you without fear holding you back.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to help you strengthen your confidence, develop meaningful connections, and navigate social situations with greater ease and self-acceptance.

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.

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.

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.

Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
Many folks have learned to view their anxiety as something to battle or beat, an unwelcome part of themselves they would like to get rid of. My approach is different. Rather than "getting rid" of your anxiety, I will invite you to gather it in, with curiosity and compassion, and invite it to tell you its story. Once you understand the values, needs, and pain behind it, we can find new ways of honouring your values, getting your needs met, and healing old wounds. This process builds trust with you and your parts - once they know you are listening, they won't have to get so extreme to get your attention, and will be able to return to a healthy integrated balance within you. This allows us to get beyond symptom management to integration and healing.
