Social Anxiety
Mitchell Kovacs
Counsellor/Therapist, Level 2 Counsellor (ACA)
Social anxiety is an important topic to discuss because it’s common, often invisible, highly limiting, and very treatable—yet many people suffer in silence.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
For many women living abroad, social anxiety is not simply about shyness or lack of confidence.
Sometimes it develops slowly after years of constantly adapting between languages, cultures, expectations and different versions of oneself.
Many Italian women living abroad become highly skilled at monitoring themselves socially:
how they sound,
how they are perceived,
whether they are “too much”,
too emotional,
too foreign,
too different.
Over time, this constant self-monitoring can leave the nervous system in a subtle but chronic state of alertness.
Even simple social situations may begin to feel emotionally exhausting.
Not necessarily because a woman lacks social skills, but because some part of her body has learned that belonging often depends on careful adaptation.
I work especially with women who feel fragmented between cultures and identities, and who long to feel more relaxed, authentic and emotionally safe in relationships and social spaces.
My approach is warm, reflective and nervous-system-informed, integrating psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, embodiment, nature-based practices and emotional regulation work to help women reconnect with a deeper sense of ease, self-trust and belonging.

The Inner Collective Clinical Psychology
Psychologist, Doctor of Clinical Psychology, Master of Science, Bachelor of Arts (Psych. Hons.)
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting—overthinking what you said, fearing judgement, or avoiding situations altogether. At The Inner Collective, we understand how isolating this can be. Using evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, and exposure strategies, we help you gently challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, build social confidence, and feel more at ease being yourself—whether you're in a meeting, at a party, or just ordering a coffee.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 32932
It can be difficult to admit to social anxiety, but it is surprisingly common. Lack of safety in being one's 'true self', or feeling safe to express ones inner world, especially in one's early life, can be contributive to an underlying anxiety in social settings. Many of us navigate life with various measures in place to cope with social anxiety, such as 'masking' or substance use which may serve to alleviate temporary anxiety but reinforces the cycle, rather than address the root cause of the anxiety in the first place. Like any other challenge, i will work with you as an integrative psychotherapist to understand these root causes of the patterns shaping your experience of social life, so that you can transform them on a deep emotional level, opening yourself up to a new way of being in the world.
