Calgary, Alberta therapist: Mia Klassen, licensed professional counselor
Social Anxiety

Mia Klassen

Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
If being around others fills you with dread, if you constantly doubt yourself in social situations, if self-consciousness keeps you isolated—you're not alone, and you're not broken. Social anxiety often grows from childhood experiences of being ignored, bullied, teased, or rejected, teaching you that connection equals danger. Together, we'll explore where these fears began, help you distinguish between real threats and anxious thoughts, and gently challenge the beliefs keeping you stuck. You'll learn to regulate your nervous system in social settings, build genuine confidence, and discover that connection can be safe. You don't have to face the world alone anymore. Healing happens one compassionate step at a time.

Social Anxiety

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist

Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Social anxiety is when a person avoids interacting with people either individually or in groups to lessen the physical, emotional and mental stress they feel when they don't know how to deal with others expectations. Leaning how to best manage anxiety is the first step, unless you had a traumatic experience that created the social distancing behaviours.

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.

Calgary's economy is closely tied to the energy sector, making residents particularly vulnerable to the psychological effects of economic downturns and job uncertainty. The city has a young, ambitious professional demographic with growing mental health awareness, and therapists here frequently address anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and career-related identity challenges. Calgary also has a growing and diverse immigrant population, with many therapists offering culturally informed care for newcomers navigating settlement stress and identity transitions. Alberta Health Services provides a foundation of public mental health care, with a substantial private practice community serving the inner city and surrounding communities.
