Tawney Bevilacqua
Registered Psychotherapist, Bachelor of Counselling and Integrative Psychotherapy, Bachelor of Gender Studies/Creative Writing
Working with social anxiety requires a deep level of trust between client and therapist. I approach this relationship with great patience and care, and respecting the role anxiety has played for your survival. I also believe that we are living in challenging times, full of uncertainty, and that the issues that are arising in each of us are part of the broader climate of our world. My approach with all clients is about understanding who they are, what has shaped them, and what they need now. Looking holistically at development, intergenerational inheritance, and the broader systems which govern us can be part of the process of cultivating self-compassion and ultimately releasing oneself from the grip of anxiety.

Dr. Antonio D'Costa
Registered Psychotherapist, M.B.B.S, M.D. (Paediatrics)
I specialize in pediatric medicine and trauma-focused therapy using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). My work centers on supporting children, adolescents, and adults through grief, anxiety, behavioral challenges, and the lingering effects of difficult experiences.
As a pediatrician, I've seen how unprocessed trauma shows up in young lives- through sleep troubles, feeding issues, social withdrawal, and emotional struggles. EMDR offers a gentle, research-backed path to healing that goes beyond words.
With EMDRIA-approved training and my pediatric experience, I help families navigate some of their most challenging moments. Whether it's a child struggling with grief, an adolescent facing anxiety, or an adult working through long-held wounds, my approach blends medical expertise with compassionate, evidence-based care.
I'm passionate about making mental health support accessible- offering teletherapy across India and internationally, with subsidized sessions available for those who need them.
Let's connect if you're looking for trauma-informed support, professional collaboration, or referrals for children and families in need.

Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Social anxiety can turn everyday interactions into overwhelming ordeals, making you feel like everyone is watching, judging, or waiting for you to fail. The fear of embarrassment, rejection, or saying the wrong thing can keep you isolated, missing out on relationships, career opportunities, and life experiences. Having experienced acute anxiety myself, I understand how paralyzing these fears can be and how they create a prison of avoidance and self-consciousness. My approach to social anxiety goes beyond exposure therapy or coping strategies to address the subconscious beliefs and past experiences that fuel your fear of social judgment. Using Subconscious Dynamics™, we identify and transform the deep-seated programming that interprets social situations as threats, allowing you to rewire your nervous system's automatic responses. This work helps you develop genuine confidence in social settings, moving from survival mode to authentic connection with others.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can feel incredibly exposing, like there's nowhere to hide. Introducing ourselves to a bunch of people or saying our name in a group can feel like a terrifying and even life-threatening task. And that's before we even get to giving a public talk.
There's usually a fear of being judged, criticised or shamed. And the fear of the anxiety arising in company is usually more debilitating than the anxiety itself. The important thing to know is that it's a very normal fear, and that lots of people experience it.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor to assist you further where requested.
Social anxiety can be debilitating in hampering healthy, confident interaction with others and can lead to isolation and loneliness. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from social anxiety to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
