Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Social anxiety can turn everyday interactions into overwhelming ordeals, making you feel like everyone is watching, judging, or waiting for you to fail. The fear of embarrassment, rejection, or saying the wrong thing can keep you isolated, missing out on relationships, career opportunities, and life experiences. Having experienced acute anxiety myself, I understand how paralyzing these fears can be and how they create a prison of avoidance and self-consciousness. My approach to social anxiety goes beyond exposure therapy or coping strategies to address the subconscious beliefs and past experiences that fuel your fear of social judgment. Using Subconscious Dynamics™, we identify and transform the deep-seated programming that interprets social situations as threats, allowing you to rewire your nervous system's automatic responses. This work helps you develop genuine confidence in social settings, moving from survival mode to authentic connection with others.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can feel incredibly exposing, like there's nowhere to hide. Introducing ourselves to a bunch of people or saying our name in a group can feel like a terrifying and even life-threatening task. And that's before we even get to giving a public talk.
There's usually a fear of being judged, criticised or shamed. And the fear of the anxiety arising in company is usually more debilitating than the anxiety itself. The important thing to know is that it's a very normal fear, and that lots of people experience it.
