Megan Hanrahan
Psychologist, M.C., Registered Psychologist
Social anxiety is a form of anxiety that revolves around being concerned about the thoughts and opinions of others. Sometimes it makes you question things you’ve said or done and can make you so anxious that you avoid social situations altogether. In our work together, we’ll explore how social anxiety shows up for you, what it tries to tell you, and how to tackle it head-on.

Claire Benade
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Social anxiety can lead to feelings of isolation and eventually can create a cycle of low mood. I will work with you on strategies for coping as well as looking at the larger family dynamic (if relevant) to ensure the best support for you during these difficult times. I will help support you as we work through the thoughts and feelings you are having to move you forward in your healing process. Focusing on therapeutic relationship and building trust allows me to help support you while using a solution-focused lens.

Elliott Kemmet
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, BSW, RSW
In my practice focusing on social anxiety, I provide a warm and supportive environment where clients can safely explore their fears of social interaction and public scrutiny. Understanding that social anxiety can significantly hinder personal and professional relationships, I guide clients through the process of identifying the roots of their anxiety, developing coping strategies, and gradually facing social situations with increased confidence and less distress. My approach is compassionate and personalized, emphasizing the development of social skills and self-esteem in a paced and gradual manner. Together, we work on strategies that reduce anxiety triggers and build a more positive self-perception, enabling clients to engage more freely and comfortably in social environments. This journey is about transforming fear into freedom, one step at a time.

Kevin Ruddell
Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
Social anxiety is an anxiety disorder which tends occur when we fear being judged by others. Our mind may be dominated by fears that we will do something embarrassing or processing things we have done with others previously wishing we could change what we said or the way we acted. By building confidence and challenging the negative thoughts we can often reduce the fears of being in social settings and find ourselves more comfortable in the company of others.

Laura Romero
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych
Social anxiety is simply anxiety projected outward in a social situation. By building an awareness of one's relationship with anxiety, and learning how to use tools to help manage anxiety, clients can learn how to break the cycle of debilitating behaviours and gently make changes they wish to see so social situations can eventually become more comfortable and perhaps even enjoyable.

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.
