Sierra Goldfinger
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
As a therapist, and someone who has experienced social anxiety myself, I know how much effort it can take to navigate it. During therapy, it can often be helpful to get to know the social anxiety to feel more in control of it. This can allow us to develop a unique toolkit, best suited to you, to move through the anxiety and live your most meaningful and authentic life. I am here to support you in creating and applying this toolkit. Connect with me today for a free consultation to begin your journey.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you fear others are judging you? Do you walk through the world trying to manage your body, your expressions, your actions, your breathing for fear of being noticed, humiliated, or rejected by others? Do you simply feel 'not good enough' in the eyes of yourself and others? Are you tired of working so hard to cope with your anxiety without ever truly feeling better? If so, you may be suffering from social anxiety and likely from the loneliness that comes from living behind the mask that others are allowed to see. At Transforming Emotions, we use integrative therapy techniques from a foundation of emotion focused therapy to help you get to the root of your social anxiety. We aim to identify and heal the underlying experiences of fear and shame that tend to underpin the experience of social anxiety and negative self-judgment. Contact us today for a free consultation to help us match you to the right therapist for your unique needs.

Aleksei Panov
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Psy, MS Psy, RP
For dealing with social anxiety, first of all, I help my clients to manage their physical symptoms of anxiety and then they are able to take control of their bodies, secondly we try to identify automatic negative thoughts and learn how to deal with them and challenge them. We learn how to accept ourselves, and stop worrying about other people's opinions.

Morgan Mackenzie
Registered Social Worker, RSW
In my practice, I offer compassionate support for individuals navigating the challenges of social anxiety. Social anxiety can be a pervasive and isolating experience, impacting various aspects of life, from relationships to career opportunities. I create a safe and understanding environment for clients to explore the underlying causes of their social anxiety, often rooted in fear of judgment or rejection. Utilizing evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral techniques and exposure therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to develop coping strategies, challenge negative thought patterns, and build self-confidence in social settings. My goal is to empower individuals to navigate social interactions with greater ease, fostering authentic connections and promoting a sense of social fulfillment. Through our therapeutic partnership, individuals can develop the skills and mindset necessary to overcome social anxiety and thrive in various social situations.
