Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Experiencing social anxiety means your body may be intuitively perceiving interpersonal spaces as direct threats to your safety or comfort, which is often a valid response to environments where you have faced systemic unsafety. Rather than forcing you to simply push through your fear, my online practice in BC focuses on understanding and validating these somatic threat responses. By focusing on slowed-down relational safety, we can help your nervous system soften, allowing genuine connection with others to unfold organically.

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.

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.

Jonah Fialkow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As a counsellor specializing in social anxiety, I take a compassionate and holistic approach to help you overcome your challenges. We'll begin by exploring the underlying causes and triggers of your social anxiety, recognizing the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to your distress. Together, we'll develop practical strategies to gradually expose you to social situations in a supportive and controlled manner, building your confidence and resilience over time. Additionally, we'll work on challenging negative self-beliefs and developing more adaptive ways of thinking about yourself and social interactions. Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and gradual exposure exercises, our goal is to empower you to face social situations with greater ease and self-assurance. Together, we'll navigate this journey towards greater social confidence and fulfillment, one step at a time.
