Berry Didier Nibogora - Bilingual CBT therapist @ CMAP Health
Counsellor/Therapist, RP(Q), CCPA, LLM
Social anxiety is a fear of negative evaluation or judgment in social situations that impacts your ability to do things that are important to you. You may be anxious about your performance in various social or public situations, you may be anxious about meeting new people you don’t know or eating in public or using public restrooms, as long as it does not impact your functioning, you are not a socially anxious sufferer. In order to effectively help clients to overcome their social anxiety, I use Clark and Wells model consisting of developing a personalized formulation, targeting safety and avoidance behaviour while redirecting the attention towards the environment instead of on self. Various experiments are involved to correct the social image one has of self and facilitate acquisition of new knowledge through surveys, social interactions, video feedback and processing the outcomes of behavioural experiments. At an advanced stage, I facilitate client to discriminate between the time (usually during childhood) when a traumatic event disturbed their beliefs about themselves, the word and the future and the here and now as a flexible adult with all the tools, flexibility and resources to manage and respond to whatever come their way.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy | M. Caracciolo Professional Corporation
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C-DBT
Did you know that shyness is actually NOT a character trait but a stress response of being around others? It has to do with a lack of self-esteem and self-acceptance often tied to a history of ECEs (early childhood experiences).

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.

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.

Rochelle Aljammas (Trauma, Relationship, BPD, emotional regulation)
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., B.A. (Hons)
Social anxiety can feel like being watched, judged, always “on,” always calculating what others think, second‑guessing yourself. I’ll help you explore what lies beneath social fears (past experiences, self‑beliefs, shame), practice exposure in safe ways, build confidence, and shift toward more ease in social situations — or more peace with choosing when and how to engage.

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.

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.
