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.

Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services
Hypnotherapist
Social anxiety disorder (also known as Social Phobia) is a mental health condition. It is a type of anxiety disorder that causes extreme fear in social settings. It is an intense, persistent fear of being watched, judged and perhaps even humiliated by others. This fear can affect work, school, and your other day-to-day activities. It can even make it hard to make and keep friends. Hypnosis has proven to be an excellent method or complement to counteracting the negative effects of this disorder.

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.
