Social Anxiety
Dr. Nilgun Turkcan Ataoglu, BCT, RDT
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed & Registered Creative Arts Therapist
Social anxiety is not always simply a fear of social situations. Sometimes, it grows from a deeper uncertainty: “Can I be myself and still be accepted?”
When our sense of worth becomes closely tied to how others see us, social interactions can begin to feel like performances. We monitor what we say, how we look, whether we are interesting enough, whether we are doing something wrong—and whether others approve of us. The more we try to control how we are perceived, the more tense and self-conscious we can become.
Therapy can help shift the focus from constantly evaluating yourself through other people’s eyes toward developing a more secure relationship with your own voice, feelings, and identity.
The goal is not to become perfectly confident or never feel anxious. It is to feel increasingly free to be present, spontaneous, and genuinely yourself—even when you cannot control what others may think.
