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.

Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
Social anxiety can be related to our sense of self/our self esteem; feeling a sense of empowerment in relationships; feeling that we are accepted just as we are; no change needed. It can involve learning new communication skills. Social anxiety if also related to experiences of shame. Bringing shame out into the light of day can help.

Nakasha Ogbonna
Registered Social Worker, RSW
Therapy with my practice offers individuals a safe place to express their deepest thoughts and emotions with caring and highly trained professionals who are committed to their well-being. My clients come to me to share challenges they may be facing in the present, worries about their future, and/or unresolved past hurts --- with the goals of healing, developing effective tools for personal growth, gaining insight and direction, improving their relationships, and/or improving their over all sense of well being and quality of life. While therapy cannot directly change your external world, it will work to transform the internal world of your mind --- allowing you to live a truly rich and meaningful life. Social anxiety can feel crippling, but I can equip you with highly effective skills to overcome and live a life that is not dictated by fear.

James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
While working with social anxiety looks a lot like working with anxiety per se, I've found that there's often an added layer of pressure with it. Jobs, school, dating, and other situations often highlight where our anxieties express themselves, and often increase the sense that we need to sort it out sooner than later. I work with folks to address their unique cognitive, emotional, behavioural, and physiological expressions of anxiety, and to build trust that folks can have more power over their feelings than their feelings have over them.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
We all have feelings of worry from time to time. However if these thoughts and feelings are persistent and you find you have constant worries about social interactions, what people may be thinking about you, how others perceive you and self-doubt in social situations, you may be struggling with social anxiety. Psychotherapy is a powerful tool to help manage and mitigate symptoms of social anxiety by uncovering the root cause of your worries. By understanding your fears and triggers, you can better navigate anxiety provoking situations and move through them with more ease and confidence.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming or exhausting. You may worry about being judged, embarrassed, or saying the “wrong” thing, which can lead to avoidance, self-doubt, or a constant sense of tension in social situations. These patterns can impact work, relationships, and daily life, making you feel stuck or isolated.
In therapy, I provide a supportive space to explore these experiences, understand the thoughts and feelings behind your anxiety, and develop practical strategies to manage discomfort. Together, we work toward building confidence, ease, and a greater sense of connection in social situations.

Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, stressful, or emotionally draining. Many people experience constant self-monitoring, fear of judgment, difficulty speaking up, avoidance of social situations, or replaying conversations long after they happen. Therapy can help you better understand the roots of social anxiety, challenge unhelpful patterns, and gradually build confidence, comfort, and authenticity in social and professional situations.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Social anxiety is a condition characterized by excessive fear and self-consciousness in social situations. It can often lead to avoidance of social situations altogether, which further reinforces feelings of isolation and low self-esteem. Social anxiety can be a debilitating condition if not addressed and treated. However, with the right guidance and support, it is possible to overcome social anxiety and live a fulfilling life with healthy social interactions.

Social Anxiety can affect the way an individual views themselves in the context of their relationships,the world around them and their confidence in themselves. This may lead to avoidant behaviours, negative thoughts and self talk and low confidence to try new things. Therapeutic interventions can help identify and positively change core beliefs and increase confidence.
