Sabrina Ragan
Psychologist, CCC., CPT, R.Psych
Social anxiety can make everyday situations—like speaking in class, joining a group, or attending a birthday party—feel terrifying for a child. In therapy, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where children can explore their fears, learn calming strategies, and build the confidence they need to engage with others. Using play therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and expressive tools, we gently challenge anxious thoughts and celebrate small wins. I also work closely with parents to support their child’s growth outside of sessions, helping them respond with encouragement, not pressure. Social anxiety doesn’t have to define your child—together, we help them find their voice.

Denelle O'Reilly
Psychologist
I support children, adolescents, and adults experiencing social anxiety in building confidence and feeling more at ease in social situations. Using a warm, non-judgmental approach, I help clients understand the thoughts, fears, and patterns that contribute to anxiety in social settings. Together, we develop practical, evidence-based strategies to manage anxious thoughts, reduce avoidance, and gradually increase comfort in interactions such as conversations, school, work, and social events.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I help clients with social anxiety by gently unpacking the fear of judgment, rejection, or humiliation that can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. While social anxiety can be part of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), it’s also often a natural response for neurodivergent individuals navigating a world not designed for their communication styles or sensory needs. Therapy focuses on building self-compassion, developing coping strategies, and supporting clients in expressing themselves authentically while gradually expanding their sense of safety in social spaces.
