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.

Paul, Carvalho
Registered Psychotherapist
Anxiety can help protect you from danger - but what if the danger prevents you from meeting or being with others and living your life freely? This type of anxiety is nuanced and may require different approaches to help you discover the strengths you need to move past your fears. I create a safe space where you can practice skills to help you develop the confidence you need to move past these fears. Courage is the will to act in the face of fears - not the absence of fear. Let's find the source of your courage and amplify that.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Social anxiety can make everyday situations feel overwhelming—whether it’s speaking up in a meeting, meeting new people, or even spending time with friends. You may find yourself worrying about being judged, replaying conversations in your head, or avoiding social situations altogether. In therapy, I provide a safe and understanding space to explore where these fears come from, gently challenge negative thought patterns, and build tools to help you feel calmer and more confident. Together, we’ll work toward easing the anxiety and creating more freedom and comfort in your connections with others.
