Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Social anxiety isn't shyness, and it isn't something you can think your way out of by reminding yourself people aren't watching that closely. It lives in the body, in anticipation, in the replay afterward. I work with clients on the whole cycle of it, not just the moments of avoidance, but the exhaustion of managing it constantly and what it's cost them over time.

Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leaving you self-conscious, worried, or stuck in avoidance. Our trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach helps you understand the roots of social anxiety, regulate emotional and bodily responses, and develop practical strategies for engaging with confidence. Using Attachment-Focused Therapy, AEDP, and IFS, we explore relational patterns, self-criticism, and internalized fears that influence social interactions. Clients gain tools to manage anxiety in social settings, build self-compassion, understand attachment dynamics, and strengthen their ability to connect authentically. Sessions are available in-person in Toronto and virtually across Ontario, providing support wherever you are.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Through a mindfulness-based cognitive behavioural approach, we will work together to help you learn how to recognize and change negative thoughts about yourself and develop skills to help you gain confidence in social situations. We may gradually work up to facing the situations you fear most. This can improve your coping skills and help you develop the confidence to deal with anxiety-inducing situations. We may also explore role-playing scenarios to help you practice your social skills and gain comfort and confidence relating to others, while acknowledging and addressing your worries and fears.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
Social anxiety comes up in diverse ways among my clients. Together we'll explore your unique experience of this and try to get at its roots. I practice Relational Therapy, which understands our social experiences as core to our mental health. This can make social anxiety a particularly painful and isolating experience. The therapeutic relationship is a chance to explore those anxieties as you feel safer and we build trust and understanding together.

Wise Path Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Ribalkin, MA, MA, RP
I have experience helping individuals manage social anxiety using a cognitive-behavioral approach. This included psychoeducation about how social anxiety works and the role of avoidance, as well as support in taking gradual steps towards social situations to build confidence and reduce fear.
Over time, this can help shift the perception of threat and create more freedom in social settings.

Sierra Goldfinger
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
As a therapist, and someone who has experienced social anxiety myself, I know how much effort it can take to navigate it. During therapy, it can often be helpful to get to know the social anxiety to feel more in control of it. This can allow us to develop a unique toolkit, best suited to you, to move through the anxiety and live your most meaningful and authentic life. I am here to support you in creating and applying this toolkit. Connect with me today for a free consultation to begin your journey.

Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel tense, exhausting, or full of self-monitoring. You may fear being judged, rejected, embarrassed, or misunderstood. Therapy can help you understand the thoughts, body sensations, and avoidance patterns that keep social anxiety going, while gradually building confidence, self-acceptance, and more freedom in relationships.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel nervous, self-conscious, or on edge in social situations? Many people with social anxiety grow up learning to doubt themselves, fear judgment, or avoid connection to stay safe. These patterns can make interactions feel overwhelming, exhausting, or impossible at times.
These feelings are not a flaw—they are natural responses to fear and past experiences. What matters is how you respond when social situations trigger anxiety. Together, we can explore your experiences, build coping strategies, and gradually increase comfort and confidence—so you can feel more at ease, connected, and lighter in social settings. You feel this way for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Social anxiety is often far more than just “shyness.” It can involve fear of judgment, overthinking, masking, self-criticism, rejection sensitivity, trauma, neurodivergence, nervous system overload, or the exhausting pressure of constantly monitoring yourself around others.
For many people, social anxiety is not simply about social skills — it is about safety, self-trust, and the fear of being misunderstood, rejected, or exposed.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you better understand what may be happening beneath the surface while building confidence, reducing shame, strengthening emotional regulation, and creating more freedom in how you connect with others.
Together, we work toward helping relationships and social experiences feel more manageable, authentic, and less exhausting.
