Tej Neringer, Pivotal Counseling
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety disorder is an intense, persistent fear of being watched and judged by others. My approach to working with Anxiety is twofold. First, learning coping strategies and ways to cope with anxiety in the moment so that you are better able to stay grounded and continue with life, even when anxiety is present. Second, we identify, explore and challenge any thoughts, beliefs or behaviours that are contributing to the on-going anxiety, with the goal of understanding the root cause of the anxiety and adjusting thought patterns to reduce or eliminate anxiety moving forward.

Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
From an emotionally focused perspective, working with social anxiety involves exploring the emotional experiences underlying an individual's fear of social situations. Social anxiety may stem from attachment-related insecurities that leave us vulnerable to feelings of rejection or judgment. Taking an emotionally focused approach our goal is to identify and process these underlying emotions, which may include shame or fear of abandonment, that often fuel such anxiety. By creating a safe, empathic therapeutic environment, we will also work on becoming aware of any negative emotional cycles, like avoidance or self-criticism and work to heal these wounds and soften our defenses. As individuals connect more deeply with their core emotions and gain more clarity about their internal world it can lead to increased self-acceptance which enables individuals to face social situations with a sense of security, reduced anxiety and an improved ability to engage with others in an authentic way. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

Oakville is one of the most affluent municipalities in Canada — a well-established Toronto suburb with a high median household income, well-funded schools, and a therapy culture that reflects the stresses of high-achieving, upper-middle-class suburban family life. The city's concentration of executives, professionals, and their families creates demand for therapists working with relationship complexity, parenting under pressure, and the psychological costs of maintaining prosperity and family cohesion. Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community. Oakville's growing diversity — with expanding South Asian and East Asian communities in its newer residential subdivisions — is gradually broadening the range of cultural frameworks therapists need to engage with.
