Social Anxiety
Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients with social anxiety focuses on creating a safe, understanding space where they can explore fears, self-consciousness, and avoidance patterns without judgment. I work collaboratively to help clients identify triggers, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and gradually build confidence in social situations. Using evidence-informed strategies such as cognitive-behavioural therapy, exposure techniques, and skills-building exercises, I support clients in managing anxiety, improving communication, and strengthening self-esteem. My goal is to empower clients to engage more fully in their personal and professional lives while developing lasting confidence and resilience in social interactions.

Social anxiety can be debilitating, often stemming from past stressors or traumas. However, it's not a lifelong sentence. Overcoming social anxiety is possible, and I'm here to help you achieve that. I provide a safe, understanding, and collaborative therapeutic environment. My approach involves exploring the root causes of your anxiety, teaching coping mechanisms, and gradually helping you have the confidence you you need to feel okay out in social situations. Together, we can work towards reducing your anxiety, increasing your self-confidence, and enabling you to live a more fulfilling and connected life.

Francisca Carrasco - Compassionate Healing
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC. M.Psych
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or intimidating, even when you appear confident on the outside. I work with adults who struggle with fear of judgment, overthinking conversations, or avoiding social situations. Therapy focuses on reducing self-consciousness, strengthening emotional safety, and building confidence in authentic connection.

Social Anxiety
Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
Many folks have learned to view their anxiety as something to battle or beat, an unwelcome part of themselves they would like to get rid of. My approach is different. Rather than "getting rid" of your anxiety, I will invite you to gather it in, with curiosity and compassion, and invite it to tell you its story. Once you understand the values, needs, and pain behind it, we can find new ways of honouring your values, getting your needs met, and healing old wounds. This process builds trust with you and your parts - once they know you are listening, they won't have to get so extreme to get your attention, and will be able to return to a healthy integrated balance within you. This allows us to get beyond symptom management to integration and healing.
