Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Social anxiety is nearly always the consequence of people pleasing, lack of assertiveness, and the need for approval. If you have the need to be liked and approved of, you will be anxious in social situations. I will help you to identify the experiences that have created this need, and resolve them, so that you are able to consider your own needs first, and value your own opinion above those of anyone else.

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.

Therapy with Ben
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP
Social anxiety can make interactions, relationships or everyday situations feel threatening and exhausting. I offer a calm, accepting space to explore the fears, self-consciousness and expectations that may be involved, including how earlier experiences have shaped them. We can work at a manageable pace towards greater understanding and more freedom in how you relate to others.

Nicholas Millet
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapy (UKCP trainee), BACP (Individual Member)
Social anxiety convinces you that judgment, scrutiny, or rejection is waiting around every corner, turning everyday interactions into high-stakes performances. We will explore the protective roots of this vigilance while gently testing the fears that hold you captive. Step by step, you’ll learn to quiet self-monitoring, trust yourself around others, and show up comfortably as you are.
