Social Anxiety
Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, RP; MA
Social anxiety is both a cognitive and a physiological response. I help clients understand what their body is signalling in social situations and develop tools to regulate those reactions. With mindfulness and gradual exposure, social interactions can feel more relaxed and authentic.

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.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Social anxiety is a condition characterized by excessive fear and self-consciousness in social situations. It can often lead to avoidance of social situations altogether, which further reinforces feelings of isolation and low self-esteem. Social anxiety can be a debilitating condition if not addressed and treated. However, with the right guidance and support, it is possible to overcome social anxiety and live a fulfilling life with healthy social interactions.

Social Anxiety
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Social anxiety is not a flaw or a personal failure. It is a survival response shaped by early experiences where safety, acceptance, or connection were missing. It arises from a “wound” that leaves a person feeling unlovable or unsafe, often creating chronic tension and fear in social situations. Healing involves compassionate self-inquiry, understanding the anxiety as a signal rather than a problem, exploring how it manifests in the body, and gradually rebuilding authentic connections that restore a sense of safety and belonging.

Social anxiety can be related to our sense of self/our self esteem; feeling a sense of empowerment in relationships; feeling that we are accepted just as we are; no change needed. It can involve learning new communication skills. Social anxiety if also related to experiences of shame. Bringing shame out into the light of day can help.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
Social anxiety comes up in diverse ways among my clients. Together we'll explore your unique experience of this and try to get at its roots. I practice Relational Therapy, which understands our social experiences as core to our mental health. This can make social anxiety a particularly painful and isolating experience. The therapeutic relationship is a chance to explore those anxieties as you feel safer and we build trust and understanding together.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Social anxiety is a common condition characterized by intense fear or apprehension in social situations. Individuals with social anxiety may worry excessively about being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated in public or among peers. This can lead to avoidance of social interactions and impact daily functioning and relationships. Symptoms can include rapid heartbeat, sweating, trembling, and difficulty speaking. It's crucial to recognize that social anxiety is a manageable condition, and seeking help is an important step toward overcoming these challenges. Therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, and support from friends and family can play a significant role in building confidence and improving social skills. With the right strategies, individuals can learn to navigate social situations more comfortably and enhance their overall well-being.
