Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
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.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting—leaving you second-guessing yourself or avoiding situations that matter to you. 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.

Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Social situations may be very anxiety provoking for some of us. Even though we want to be around people and have deep connections, we might struggle with being comfortable in such environments. I invite you to reach out for support so we can work through your social anxiety and walk towards a more fulfilling social life together.

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.

Social Anxiety
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Social anxiety is often a protective strategy—a part of your system that is working overtime to shield you from the perceived threat of judgment or rejection. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you move beyond 'just trying to be more social' to understanding the root of the anxiety that makes being seen feel dangerous.
Using a Parts Work lens, we explore the survival strategies—like perfectionism, withdrawal, or constant self-monitoring—that your system developed to keep you safe in social settings. Together, we work to heal the underlying vulnerabilities these parts are protecting, helping you move toward a grounded sense of self-assurance and the freedom to connect with others authentically and with ease.

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.

Nadia Zamzul
Registered Psychotherapist, R.P., LL.M
I help clients who feel anxious, self-conscious, or overwhelmed in social situations understand where those fears come from and how they’ve been reinforced over time. Together, we work on reducing the fear of judgment, quieting the inner critic, and building confidence in your ability to connect with others authentically. My approach helps you feel more grounded, more comfortable being seen, and less controlled by anxiety in your relationships, work, and everyday life.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
It’s not that you’re bad at connection—some parts of you just don’t feel safe in it.
If social situations leave you feeling anxious, self-conscious, or like you constantly need to monitor how you show up, you’re not alone. Social anxiety often stems from parts of us that carry past experiences of rejection, embarrassment, or not being accepted for who we are. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you gently connect with these protective parts, understand their fears, and begin to unburden the beliefs that keep you stuck in self-doubt. Together, we create space for confidence, authenticity, and the kind of connection that feels safe and real.
