Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming, leading to fear of judgment, avoidance, and feelings of self-consciousness. We offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore these fears, understand underlying patterns, and develop practical coping strategies to build confidence, ease in social situations, and a greater sense of self-assurance.

Makai Livingstone
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions — meetings, gatherings, even small talk — feel exhausting or threatening. I help clients understand the roots of their social anxiety, build tolerance for the discomfort it brings up, and develop a more secure sense of self that doesn't depend on managing everyone else's perception of you.

Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
Social anxiety can be related to our sense of self/our self esteem; feeling a sense of empowerment in relationships; feeling that we are accepted just as we are; no change needed. It can involve learning new communication skills. Social anxiety if also related to experiences of shame. Bringing shame out into the light of day can help.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Social anxiety can make you overthink everything—what to say, how you came across, what people “must” be thinking. Therapy helps you reduce self-conscious spirals, build confidence, and practice exposure in a way that feels structured and doable. You can become more present in social situations instead of performing for approval.

Registered Psychotherapist, M.A.
The first thing you should know is I am very friendly and approachable and that I am willing to meet you wherever you are at in your journey towards trying to address social anxiety. A big part of my focus is on addressing shame or self-judgment around social anxiety as this is often one of the main drivers. I also like to used structured CBT approaches that address unhelpful thoughts, excessive self-focused attention, avoidance of social interactions and many others. Client's often find it helpful to gradually exposure exercises where they gradually move towards feared social situations in small increments and at their own pace. I have also started exploring virtual reality exposure therapy to help aid clients who are not ready for real life exposure yet.
