Social Anxiety
Theodosia Daflos
Counsellor/Therapist, MA
Social anxiety is one of the most common anxiety disorders. Many people have some discomfort meeting new people, talking in front of a group, making or answering phone calls, and making small talk. Anxiety in social situations starts becoming a problem if it's causing you difficulties in work, school, with your family, keeping or making friends, or is very intense when you're in these situations. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, we will learn to accurately assess the fears you have in these situations, and learn skills to manage your anxiety when it does not match the threat of the situation. We will also work on interpersonal skills training to help with more accurate communicating if this is something you struggles with, as well as setting and maintaining boundaries and limits.

Lisa Low (Alliance Counselling and Assessment Services)
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, BA, M.Ed., RCC
Social anxiety can feel debilitating and often prevents us from having the kinds of relationships and experiences we are seeking. Given the pandemic and the subsequent isolation, your social anxiety might feel more intense and your may be struggling to reconnect with your social self. I will help you identify the root causes of this anxiety and provide you with coping strategies to ease the fearful response and increase your confidence.
