Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
An integrative humanistic and trauma informed counselling approach offers a compassionate and comprehensive method to address social anxiety, fostering healing and empowerment for those affected. The roots of social anxiety can be multifaceted, involving genetic predispositions, environmental factors and post traumatic experiences. Humanistic counselling encourages you to develop self-awareness and self-compassion. Through reflective exercises and mindfulness practices, you can gain insight into your thought patterns and emotional responses. This self understanding fosters a more compassionate relationship with yourself, reducing self criticism and enhancing self esteem. An integrative approach will equip you with practical coping strategies to manage social anxiety. Techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation and grounding exercises can help clients regulate their physiological responses to anxiety. Cognitive restructuring and exposure therapy can also be employed to challenge and reframe negative thought patterns and gradually desensitise you to feared social situations. We will collaborate to set achievable goals and celebrate progress. By fostering a sense of agency and self-efficacy, you are encouraged to take an active role in your healing journey. By combining the principles of empathy, validation and empowerment, the approach that I use can help you navigate your anxieties.
