Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Social anxiety can leave you overthinking every interaction, worrying about being judged, and replaying conversations long after they've ended. You may find yourself thinking, "What if I say something embarrassing?" or "Can they tell I'm anxious?" Together, we'll explore the root causes of your social anxiety, build confidence and self esteem, and develop practical strategies to help you feel calmer, more authentic, and comfortable in social situations.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety turns ordinary moments into performances: rehearsing sentences before you say them, replaying conversations for days, feeling watched and judged even among friends. The loneliness of wanting connection while fearing it is real, and it's more common than you know. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand your anxiety without shame, quiet the inner critic that narrates every interaction, and gradually build confidence in being seen. The goal isn't to become someone else, it's to genuinely understand yourself, loosen fear's grip on your relationships, and let people meet the real you. Together we'll work toward feeling more at ease, more connected, and more equipped to show up in your life and relationships.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting, whether you're worried about being judged, saying the wrong thing, or how others perceive you. You might find yourself overthinking conversations, avoiding situations, or replaying interactions long after they've ended. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to explore and process feelings that contribute to social anxiety. Together, we can work toward feeling more comfortable being yourself around others, less caught up in fear of judgment, and freer to engage in the relationships and experiences that matter to you.

Social anxiety is common for many and we have found that addressing core beliefs, past experiences and negative automatic thoughts are key in processing through this.
