Being seen is as tough as it is feeling invisible sometimes. The world forces us into being in environments where there are other people. In therapy you will understand your fears and how to cope with others and be alone.

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.

Luq Adejumo
Registered Psychotherapist, MUKCP, MBACP
Dealing with social anxiety can be incredibly challenging given the ramifications for our ability to connect with others. It can lead to my clients feeling very isolated. It’s not uncommon for it to have been part of my clients’ worlds from an early age. I work with my clients to explore the underlying issues that exacerbate feeling helpless in a social situation.
