Abi Jude
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP Member
Many of us feel socially awkward at points in our life. Perhaps we were told we were 'shy' as children, or have always struggled to make friends. This can leave us feeling isolated and lonely and we may tell ourselves that we are weird, different or simply do not know how to interact with others. The feelings and experiences associated with not fitting in, saying the wrong things or not being able to socialise can be devastating. I will work with you to look at your experience and how you speak to yourself as a way of understanding how you may impact others, allowing for a different way of being in the world.

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.

Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
Social anxiety, like many other conditions that present with anxiety is amenable to therapy. Often there are unique features but working through these can help detoxify the fear and panic and help you into a more normal life. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

"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)
