Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Social anxiety often goes hand-in-hand with neurodivergence. I specialize in supporting suspected or late diagnosed ADHDers and AuDHDers who are "high-masking", perfectionistic, and/or cycle between introversion and extroversion. Social anxiety can also be a symptom of trauma. If you are feeling nervous, withdrawn, lonely or are self-isolated, I would like to encourage you to reach out. Improving social anxiety begins when you give yourself permission to connect

Justin Mulder
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Social anxiety can make everyday situations feel far more stressful than they look from the outside. Things like meeting new people, speaking up in a group, dating, or even simple conversations can bring up a lot of worry about being judged, saying the wrong thing, or not fitting in. Over time, it’s easy to start avoiding situations that once felt manageable, which can lead to feeling more isolated or stuck. In therapy, we take a gentle and practical approach to understanding where those fears come from and how they show up for you. Together, we work on building confidence, easing the pressure you put on yourself, and finding ways to engage socially that feel more natural and less overwhelming.

Markham is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities in North America outside of East Asia, with a majority Chinese population and a significant South Asian minority, creating a therapy community with unusually strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Punjabi-speaking practitioners. The city is a major technology hub — home to Canadian headquarters for IBM, Apple, and dozens of other multinationals — generating consistent demand for therapists who work with high-performance workplace stress, burnout, and the particular identity pressures of first-generation professionals navigating career expectations between cultures. Markham Stouffville Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while many residents also access care through the broader Toronto metro therapy ecosystem. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains an important context for therapists, who often find themselves helping clients normalize therapy alongside the clinical work.
