Social Anxiety
Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to fear of judgment, avoidance of social situations, and difficulty expressing oneself confidently. It can affect relationships, work, and overall quality of life. I offer a safe and understanding space where clients can explore these concerns without pressure or criticism.
My approach focuses on building emotional safety, self-confidence, and practical coping skills. Through gradual support, clients learn to manage anxious thoughts, strengthen self-trust, and feel more comfortable engaging in social and professional settings at their own pace.

I’ll support you with steady guidance and actionable strategies so you can engage more comfortably and authentically.

Social Anxiety
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Social anxiety isn't shyness. It's the relentless monitoring, the replaying of conversations, the exhausting effort of managing how you come across while also trying to actually be present. It can make connection feel like a test you keep failing. I work with people to understand where that hypervigilance came from and gradually build a sense of safety that doesn't depend on getting everything exactly right.

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.

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.

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.

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.
