Social Anxiety
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like a minefield. Overthinking every word, dreading being judged, exhausted before you've even walked in the room. If connection feels more draining than fulfilling because of this, let's work together to help you feel more at ease with others.
The first step in working with social anxiety is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you. Your mind has simply learned to treat connection as a threat, and that can be unlearned. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where this anxiety comes from and build confidence and tools for showing up as yourself in social situations. My approach centres self-compassion, gradual exposure, and practical strategies that fit your life.
You don't have to face this alone. Let's take the first step toward feeling more comfortable in your own skin, with others.

I have helped those struggling with social anxiety, fear of embarrassment, and a lack of confidence for a decade so understand the toll anxiety can have on your quality of life, but I also know that there is so much room for positive change when the right help is provided. I have extensive training in evidence-based therapy and have supported countless clients to overcome their fears.

Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
Social anxiety can develop around experiences of rejection, criticism, exclusion or relational threat. I use an attachment-informed, trauma-sensitive and somatic approach to explore the protective patterns that emerge around social connection, while building greater internal safety, confidence and flexibility in relationships.
