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.

Georgie Gee
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy
I have found in my work that the fear of being criticised and judged can often stem from an internal critic that shames young people and can keep they stuck in unhealthy patterns. I hope my work fosters insights which allows for self acceptance and growth of the personality.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Through my training and practice I have come to understand social anxiety as another expression of interpersonal and communication difficulties that can bring much suffering to peole who experience it. Not only due to the feelings of often intense anxiety itself, but also through avoiding anxiety-inducing situations and thus often missing out on opportunities to be with others, develop and enjoy life.
I work psychoanalytically, which means that what I offer is a space to think about these experiences in a deeper way - as part of your overall functioning and inner life, as opposed to focusing solely on symptom reduction.

Social Anxiety
Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Social anxiety seems like such a current issue to me, and I see people struggling under the weight of it at times in all areas of my life. We are bombarded with how we are supposed to do this thing called life, our values, appearance, views and so on are brought into question and there feels like there is no escape from it. What this can bring about is a fear of being seen, a fear of not getting it right, or not fitting in. We can start to question the safety of being out in the world where others might see that you are doing it wrong - or more realistic not doing it how they would. It can bring limitations in your life which stop you from doing what you want, stop you from connecting with others, stop you getting the most out of each day. Believe you can change this and know you do not have to do it alone. Asking for support is one of the most important choices you might make today.

Tamzin Brain @HypnoChange4U
Counsellor/Therapist, Ad.Dip.CP, DipHyp CS, Dip CP, MNCS (Acc), MHS, Counselling Cert, CACHE3, B.A. Honours Degree PsyCrim
"Before I tried hypnotherapy I heard many stories how people lost weight without having operation, stopped smoking, got rid of different fears. My problem was I couldn’t answer the phone in the office while my colleagues were working close to my desk. I was not confident dealing with people on the phone and it was destroying me every day. This was my first experience having hypnotherapy. The session itself was very pleasant, I was so relaxed and calm like never before. After the hypnotherapy I started feeling different. It is strange, I got this confidence that I was always lacking. I couldn’t get this confidence myself and during the hypnosis session my unconscious mind was told to be confident. It is amazing how well it works! Our brain is powerful to change everything but sometimes we need a little help." (Lina)
