Caroline Lacelle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
My treatment approach follows the three phases of trauma treatment; resourcing, reprocessing, and reorienting. Together we will determine the resources you may need to tap into a grounded sense of self through somatic practices and parts work. Deep Brain Reorienting, EMDR, and ART guide reprocessing to shift past experiences into the past so you can reorient and engage fully in the present.

Sharron Carson
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
People experience anxiety in different ways and for those with social anxiety the world can feel very uncomfortable or overwhelming at times. This can cause one to isolate and withdraw from others in an effort to avoid discomfort or distress. This in turn prevents us from learning how to navigate social situations and learn to make them feel more manageable. When working with a client with social anxiety I recognize that it can be challenging just to be interacting with a new person. As anxiety often comes from feeling a lack of control, it is a priority for me to promote an environment where my client feels safe and in control. We will explore the history of their anxiety, what makes it worse as well as triggers. We will then use CBT to challenge negative or limiting thoughts and reframe them as more empowering and reassuring thoughts. We will also develop grounding and coping strategies they can use when feeling anxious. If this sounds helpful to you, please book a free consultation where I can answer questions or address concerns.

Jennifer Poisson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP, CCDP, CCTP-II, Certified EMDR Therapist
I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to help you learn to recognize, understand, and gradually change your negative thinking and worries related to social anxiety. CBT will require your active participation and willingness to engage in "homework" activities outside of therapy and to eventually participate in imagined or actual exposure activities aimed at helping you learn to manage your anxious feelings when engaging in social situations.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with social anxiety, you may feel tense or self-conscious in conversations, meetings, or social gatherings. You might replay interactions afterward, worrying about what you said or how you were perceived. Even small social situations can feel draining, and you may avoid opportunities because the anticipation feels overwhelming.
At Selah Counselling, we approach social anxiety with compassion and practical support. Social anxiety is not a lack of confidence. It is often a nervous system response shaped by past experiences, fear of judgment, or heightened sensitivity to social cues. Together, we work on calming the body’s stress response, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and building gradual exposure in a way that feels manageable. Our goal is to help you participate more fully in your life with greater steadiness, self-trust, and confidence in your voice.

Shanna Budzinsky
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social situations can be challenging and they can trigger our sense of danger, especially if we feel we might be judged or put on the spot. Therapy can provide a safe space to explore the fear that accompanies social situations and the therapy relationship can be used to learn and practice new ways of responding. When supporting individuals experiencing social anxiety, I work at a pace that is comfortable for them and empower them to learn and practice skills that will help them feel more competent and confident in social situations.
