Social Anxiety
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.

Social Anxiety
Susan Fehr
Registered Psychotherapist, RP Qualifying, MA
When social situations feel constantly overwhelming, avoidance can start to feel like the only relief — even as it costs you connection and opportunity. I help clients understand the patterns that fuel social anxiety and build, step by step, the confidence and skills to re-engage with the people and situations that matter to them.

Ms. Clare Pentelow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Dealing with social anxiety is stressful and upsetting. I provide a warm, compassionate approach when supporting clients dealing with social anxiety. I work to gain a deep understanding of their past, present and their personality, and utilize a combination of different therapeutic techniques to support individuals in better understating the root causes of their social anxiety, and challenging the negative thoughts that are at the core of the anxiety.
