Feeling Anxious in Social Situations? Find Relief and Connection Online.
At The Woods Counselling, we understand the challenges of social anxiety. Feeling overwhelmed, self-conscious, or afraid of judgment in social settings can significantly impact your life. Our therapists specialize in helping individuals overcome social anxiety and build confidence in social interactions.
Does This Sound Familiar?
Do you experience intense anxiety in social situations, like parties, work events, or public speaking?
Do worries about what others think prevent you from connecting with others?
Do you avoid social situations altogether due to fear of embarrassment or criticism?
We Can Help:
Understanding Social Anxiety: We'll explore the root causes of your social anxiety and provide information about how it works.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is a powerful tool for social anxiety. We'll help you identify negative thought patterns and develop coping mechanisms to challenge them.
Exposure Therapy (gradually facing feared situations): In a safe and controlled online environment, we can help you gradually expose yourself to social situations that trigger your anxiety, building confidence and reducing fear.
Social Skills Training: We can teach you practical skills for navigating social situations, including communication skills, assertiveness training, and relaxation techniques.
Building Confidence and Self-Compassion: Our goal is to empower you to connect with others authentically and build a healthy sense of self-worth, regardless of social situations.
Finding Connection Online:
While social anxiety can make in-person therapy daunting, online therapy offers a safe and convenient space to address your fears and develop tools for managing social anxiety.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Therapy focuses on identifying critical incidences that informed underlying negative thoughts, fears, and beliefs that may be contributing to anxiety. CBT is used to explore earlier experiences and how they are perpetuating current anxiety symptoms and teaching coping strategies to deal with anxiety. A neurobiological lens is used to understand the impact of stress and brain development.

In therapy, we’ll work to uncover what fuels your fear of judgment or rejection, and gently build confidence in your ability to connect with others. Through mindfulness, nervous-system regulation, and self-compassion, you can begin to feel more at ease and authentic in social spaces, free to show up as yourself.

Social anxiety is very common and can greatly be helped by re-setting the central nervous system and brain, as well as reframing any negative beliefs and fears that are in the unconscious mind. This can be accomplished through neurofeedback, hypnosis along with learning effective sills and tools.
