Social Anxiety
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.

Kajal Sohal
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP-C
Do you replay conversations in your mind, worry about saying the wrong thing, or avoid social situations because you're afraid of being judged or embarrassed? Social anxiety can make everyday experiences—meeting new people, speaking up at work, attending gatherings, or expressing your needs—feel incredibly stressful. You might want meaningful connections but find yourself holding back out of fear of rejection or criticism.
I offer affordable, compassionate counselling to help you navigate social anxiety in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and person-centred approaches, we can explore the thoughts and fears that arise in social situations, develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, and gradually build confidence at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
My approach is also culturally sensitive and neurodivergent-affirming. I recognize that social difficulties can sometimes be influenced by cultural expectations, past experiences, or differences in communication styles. Rather than expecting you to become more outgoing or change your personality, I focus on helping you feel more comfortable expressing yourself authentically.
Together, we can work toward reducing self-consciousness, strengthening communication skills, setting healthy boundaries, and developing greater confidence in relationships and social situations.
You deserve to connect with others without constantly questioning your worth or worrying about what people think. I offer affordable counselling in English and Punjabi and would welcome the opportunity to help you build meaningful connections while feeling more confident being yourself.

Even though we need connection in our lives, if may be difficult to feel confident in social situations. We will explore what led you to feel this way and find ways of developing Self confidence and Self esteem and to start re-engaging with the world.
People on the spectrum may find this particularly challenging: we will assess whether this could be the cause for disconnection and work with whatever you are presenting.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Social anxiety comes up in a variety of situations and has multiple symptoms. Perhaps you struggle with public speaking and your mind goes blank or your voice gets shaky. Maybe you blush every time you talk to someone. Perhaps you stutter or fail to make appropriate eye contact. Maybe you are shy and think everyone is scrutinising you or judging you. Perhaps you have experienced panic attacks or you worry excessively about social interactions. Whatever your particular situation, I can offer lots of tools and strategies to help calm your nervous system, tame your thoughts, and manage uncomfortable feelings. You can learn to be cool and calm in your interactions with other people, even if you don't believe you ever could be!

Social anxiety isn’t simply shyness. It often reflects deeper experiences involving safety, belonging, self-expression, and the nervous system’s response to relationships and social environments.
