Social Anxiety
Kayla Rivera
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social anxiety often looks like overthinking, self monitoring, and replaying conversations long after they’re over. We’ll gently unpack the beliefs underneath the fear of judgement, build skills for calming your nervous system, and practice new ways of showing up without masking. Over time, social situations can feel less like a performance and more like connection.

Social Anxiety
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.

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.

Social anxiety can make interactions feel exhausting, threatening, or full of self-monitoring. You may worry about being judged, rejected, embarrassed, or misunderstood. Therapy can help you understand these fears, reduce avoidance, build confidence, and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself in social situations.
