Social Anxiety
Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Diploma in Clinical Supervision
Anxiety is the number one reason that most of my clients come to work with me - and I can help. Social anxiety, in particular can be a terrifying and lonely place to be. Together, we can find strategies that you are using that do or don't work as well as discovering new ones that can make an enormous difference in your day to day life. Working on this in a step by step approach can help you see things slowly but definitely change.

Social Anxiety
Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Do you find yourself rehearsing conversations before they happen, replaying interactions long afterward, or worrying that others are judging you? Perhaps you avoid gatherings, hesitate to speak up in meetings or classrooms, or struggle to express yourself even when you have something important to say. Social anxiety can leave you feeling isolated, self-conscious, and frustrated, especially when you genuinely want to connect with others but fear being embarrassed, rejected, or misunderstood.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling for adolescents and adults experiencing social anxiety. My background in counselling, educational support, and community mental health has given me an appreciation for how social experiences, relationships, and our sense of belonging can influence emotional well-being.
Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), person-centred counselling, and trauma-informed principles, I work collaboratively with you to understand the thoughts, emotions, and experiences contributing to your social anxiety. Together, we can explore patterns of self-criticism, develop practical strategies for managing uncomfortable social situations, and gradually build confidence in expressing yourself and connecting with others.
I also recognize that cultural expectations, family dynamics, language differences, and past experiences of criticism or exclusion can influence how comfortable we feel around others. My culturally responsive approach creates space to explore these influences without judgment, while respecting your identity, values, and personal boundaries.
Overcoming social anxiety doesn't mean you need to become outgoing or change your personality. It's about feeling more comfortable being yourself, communicating your needs, and participating in experiences that matter to you without fear holding you back.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to help you strengthen your confidence, develop meaningful connections, and navigate social situations with greater ease and self-acceptance.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
For many women living abroad, social anxiety is not simply about shyness or lack of confidence.
Sometimes it develops slowly after years of constantly adapting between languages, cultures, expectations and different versions of oneself.
Many Italian women living abroad become highly skilled at monitoring themselves socially:
how they sound,
how they are perceived,
whether they are “too much”,
too emotional,
too foreign,
too different.
Over time, this constant self-monitoring can leave the nervous system in a subtle but chronic state of alertness.
Even simple social situations may begin to feel emotionally exhausting.
Not necessarily because a woman lacks social skills, but because some part of her body has learned that belonging often depends on careful adaptation.
I work especially with women who feel fragmented between cultures and identities, and who long to feel more relaxed, authentic and emotionally safe in relationships and social spaces.
My approach is warm, reflective and nervous-system-informed, integrating psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, embodiment, nature-based practices and emotional regulation work to help women reconnect with a deeper sense of ease, self-trust and belonging.

Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Social anxiety isn't shyness. It's the terror that people are watching you, judging you, seeing through you. It's scanning every conversation for proof that you said something wrong. It's replaying interactions for days, convinced you embarrassed yourself. It's exhausting.
You might avoid social situations entirely, or you go but spend the whole time performing—saying what you think people want to hear, monitoring every word, never relaxing. Either way, you're not actually present. You're too busy managing the anxiety to connect with anyone.
This usually comes from somewhere. Maybe you were criticized, shamed, or made to feel like who you naturally are wasn't acceptable. Your nervous system learned that being seen is dangerous, so now it tries to protect you by making you hypervigilant in social situations.
We work to understand where that fear got installed and what it's protecting you from. Not by forcing you into social situations before you're ready, but by helping your nervous system learn that being yourself doesn't actually equal danger. Then social situations stop feeling like performance reviews and start feeling like... just talking to people.
