Social Anxiety
Karen Skinulis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I approach the issue of Social Anxiety from an Adlerian perspective. As with all forms of anxiety I recognize this problem results from a feeling of being overwhelmed by stress. Together with my client, whether it's an adolescent, child (together with their family) or an adult, we use CBT and exposure therapy to help uncover mistakes in the private logic and shift to a more realistic way of viewing ourselves in a social situation. Perfectionism and other mistaken ideas are often at the heart of social anxiety. By challenging unhelpful and unrealistic ideas in an empathetic and supportive way we are able to redefine our view of self and others.

Social Anxiety
Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If social situations leave you feeling anxious, self-conscious, or like you’re constantly overthinking everything you said (or didn’t say), you might be dealing with social anxiety. Maybe you avoid certain situations altogether, or you show up but feel tense, awkward, or like you're putting on a mask just to get through it.
Social anxiety can be exhausting, but it’s also something you can work through. In therapy, we’ll explore where that fear comes from, help you challenge the thoughts that are fueling it, and build confidence in how you show up around others, without having to overanalyze every moment.
You don’t have to hide, shrink, or pretend to be someone else to belong. You deserve to feel more at ease in your own skin, and in your connections with others.

Nadia Malik
Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety can be scary and isolating. It holds you back from living the full life you want. In our sessions together we will work on your fears of engaging with others, automatic thoughts that get in the way of forming relationships or speaking publicly, as well as how to manage social situations, calm internally, and build confidence. This can encourage you being able to show up, be yourself, and get more out of your life.
