New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
Social anxiety does not have to interfere with the life you want to live. We want to help you learn what is getting in the way of meaningful and stress-free social interactions - how your thoughts are contributing to the fear and discomfort that you feel in social situations. We also want to help you develop skills so that you can relate to these thoughts a little differently and build confidence in social situations. This includes understanding what is happening in your body when you feel anxious and how you can regulate and establish a feeling of safety.
It IS possible to make new meaningful connections, to not have to analyze each social interaction, and to advocate for yourself at home and work.
Contact us for a complimentary 15-minute consultation - we will connect you with clinicians from our team of trained and passionate registered psychotherapists and social workers so that you can discuss your needs and how we might be able to help.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD, RP
At the core of the social anxiety usually lies a trauma, which was caused by the “Other”. To understand this anxiety is to understand one’s history of interpersonal relationships. The anxiety should be acknowledged, understood, and dealt with in a profound and deep way that is only possible through a careful examination of one’s history of relationships. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I chose to work with social anxiety because I understand the significant impact that this condition can have on an individual's daily life. Social anxiety is a complex condition that involves a fear of social situations and a fear of being negatively evaluated by others. These fears can lead to avoidance of social situations and can interfere with an individual's ability to function in their daily life. I believe that through therapy, individuals with social anxiety can learn new coping strategies and develop a better understanding of their symptoms. I work collaboratively with my clients to identify the underlying causes of their social anxiety and develop new ways of managing their symptoms. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where my clients can feel heard and understood, and I am dedicated to helping them achieve their goals and improve their quality of life.

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.

Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Exploring your social anxiety in therapy can help identify how anxiety is manifesting itself and work to minimize the disruptive patterns it provokes in your life. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Social anxiety may include irrational fears and embarrassment and humiliation due to a lack of self confidence and lack of self worth in one's self, society and one's environment. The individual's work is in the increasing of self confidence and being less aware of the other's judgement or misjustice or evaluation of another.

Miranda Elise Klimowski
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, and Counsellor RP(Q), C.R.P.O, C.C.P.A, M.A.C.P
Through a structured and compassionate approach, I help clients challenge anxious thought patterns, reduce avoidance behaviors, and gradually build confidence in social interactions. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), we work together to identify and reframe negative thoughts about social situations, build self-confidence and self-acceptance to reduce the fear of judgment, and develop relaxation and grounding techniques to manage anxiety in the moment. I also guide clients through gradual exposure exercises to increase comfort in social settings and enhance social skills and communication strategies to foster stronger connections with others. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can develop the tools they need to navigate social interactions with greater ease and confidence.

Kayla Rivera
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social anxiety often looks like overthinking, self monitoring, and replaying conversations long after they’re over. We’ll gently unpack the beliefs underneath the fear of judgement, build skills for calming your nervous system, and practice new ways of showing up without masking. Over time, social situations can feel less like a performance and more like connection.

Social anxiety can leave us isolated and feeling alone with difficult emotions. I put clients at ease and help them increase their comfort in social settings. Developing greater self acceptance and becoming more aware of the things you are telling yourself can help you gain more control over how feel. We work together to develop different ways of coping so you can feel increased confidence and comfort in relationship to yourself and others.

Toronto is one of the most multicultural cities in the world, and its therapy landscape reflects this extraordinary diversity, with practitioners representing hundreds of cultural backgrounds and dozens of languages. The city's high cost of living and intensely competitive professional environment drive demand for therapists addressing financial anxiety, burnout, and the psychological pressures of ambitious urban life. CAMH — the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health — is Canada's largest mental health and addiction teaching hospital, providing major institutional resources alongside Toronto's vast private practice and counselling community. Ontario's OHIP coverage is limited for psychotherapy, so many residents use extended health benefits or pay out of pocket to access private therapy.
