Social anxiety looks different at different ages. In adults it may centre on work, performance situations or being observed. In children and teenagers it can appear as selective mutism, school refusal, separation difficulties or withdrawal from peers. We work with all of these, using graded exposure and cognitive approaches with older clients and play or art-based work with younger ones. Where social difficulty may relate to an unidentified neurodevelopmental difference, assessment is available within the same practice.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Social anxiety can leave you overthinking what others think of you, avoiding situations or replaying conversations long after they've happened. You may want to feel more comfortable around others but find anxiety keeps getting in the way. Together, we can understand what's driving these fears, develop practical ways to manage them and help you build greater confidence and freedom in social situations.

Mathew Bergan
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor (Grad Dip)
I support clients experiencing social anxiety by creating a safe, non-judgmental space to explore fears, triggers, self-consciousness, and avoidance patterns. Together, we develop practical strategies and coping tools to manage overwhelm, and engage more comfortably in social situations. My approach integrates emotional and embodied awareness, helping you reduce anxiety, and strengthen connection with yourself and others.

Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
It can be difficult to admit to social anxiety, but it is surprisingly common. Lack of safety in being one's 'true self', or feeling safe to express ones inner world, especially in one's early life, can be contributive to an underlying anxiety in social settings. Many of us navigate life with various measures in place to cope with social anxiety, such as 'masking' or substance use which may serve to alleviate temporary anxiety but reinforces the cycle, rather than address the root cause of the anxiety in the first place. Like any other challenge, i will work with you as an integrative psychotherapist to understand these root causes of the patterns shaping your experience of social life, so that you can transform them on a deep emotional level, opening yourself up to a new way of being in the world.
