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.

Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
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.

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.

Lailla Sena - Somatic Practitioner
Life Coach, Psychosomatic Practitioner | Breathwork Facilitator
You're in the room, and part of you never quite arrives. You're watching your own face, monitoring your voice, tracking whether you said too much or not enough. Then you leave and replay the whole thing for hours. It's exhausting in a way that's hard to explain to people who don't experience it, because from the outside you seem fine.
What's happening is a nervous system in constant surveillance, scanning for a threat it learned to expect. Together we work with that scanning directly: slowing your breath, grounding your attention back into your own body, building the felt experience of being safe while being seen. Over time you can be in the room and actually be in it. If this is you, I can support you in your process. Schedule a free chat with me today to get started.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like a minefield. Overthinking every word, dreading being judged, exhausted before you've even walked in the room. If connection feels more draining than fulfilling because of this, let's work together to help you feel more at ease with others.
The first step in working with social anxiety is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you. Your mind has simply learned to treat connection as a threat, and that can be unlearned. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where this anxiety comes from and build confidence and tools for showing up as yourself in social situations. My approach centres self-compassion, gradual exposure, and practical strategies that fit your life.
You don't have to face this alone. Let's take the first step toward feeling more comfortable in your own skin, with others.
