Social Anxiety
Jesse Niall
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, Canadian Certified Addictions Counsellor
My approach to overcoming social anxiety incorporates a combination of exposure therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques. Exposure therapy gradually helps you face and navigate social situations that trigger anxiety, building confidence over time. ACT focuses on accepting anxious thoughts without letting them control your actions, allowing you to engage more fully in social interactions. Mindfulness techniques help you stay present and grounded, reducing the intensity of anxiety in the moment. Together, we'll work to develop practical strategies that empower you to navigate social situations with greater ease and confidence.

I help women who are suffering with social anxiety. Social anxiety usually stems from past negative social experiences and low self esteem.

Social Anxiety
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.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my approach to helping clients overcome social anxiety, I craft a nurturing space where individuals can safely tackle their fears. Integrating Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Role-Playing, and specifically, Exposure Therapy, we collaboratively develop a path to confidence and ease in social situations. This comprehensive approach is designed to gently confront and desensitize clients to the social scenarios that trigger their anxiety, enhancing coping mechanisms and fostering resilience. By also focusing on building social skills and self-awareness, our aim is to empower individuals to navigate interpersonal interactions with greater comfort and less fear. My role is to guide and support you through this transformative process, offering the insights and techniques necessary for managing social anxiety. Together, we work towards achieving a more fulfilling and engaged life, helping you to step out into the world with confidence.
