Social Anxiety
Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
I offer a calm, nonjudgmental space to work through social anxiety—those moments of fear, avoidance, or self-consciousness that limit connection. We’ll map triggers, practice practical skills (breathing, cognitive reframing, gradual exposure), and build confidence in real-world interactions. I’ll support you with steady guidance and actionable strategies so you can engage more comfortably and authentically.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Social anxiety is not a flaw or a personal failure. It is a survival response shaped by early experiences where safety, acceptance, or connection were missing. It arises from a “wound” that leaves a person feeling unlovable or unsafe, often creating chronic tension and fear in social situations. Healing involves compassionate self-inquiry, understanding the anxiety as a signal rather than a problem, exploring how it manifests in the body, and gradually rebuilding authentic connections that restore a sense of safety and belonging.

Caroline Lacelle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
My treatment approach follows the three phases of trauma treatment; resourcing, reprocessing, and reorienting. Together we will determine the resources you may need to tap into a grounded sense of self through somatic practices and parts work. Deep Brain Reorienting, EMDR, and ART guide reprocessing to shift past experiences into the past so you can reorient and engage fully in the present.
