Francisca Carrasco - Compassionate Healing
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC. M.Psych
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or intimidating, even when you appear confident on the outside. I work with adults who struggle with fear of judgment, overthinking conversations, or avoiding social situations. Therapy focuses on reducing self-consciousness, strengthening emotional safety, and building confidence in authentic connection.

Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a psychotherapist I can employ various techniques and approaches to help someone with social anxiety disorder. Here are some common methods:
1. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This approach focuses on identifying and challenging negative thoughts and beliefs related to social situations. By examining and restructuring these thoughts, individuals can develop more realistic and positive thinking patterns.
2. Exposure Therapy: This technique involves gradually exposing individuals to social situations that provoke anxiety. The therapist helps create a supportive and safe environment for the person to face their fears and develop coping strategies. Over time, repeated exposure can help desensitize the person to anxiety-provoking situations.
3. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR): Mindfulness techniques, such as meditation and breathing exercises, can help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and bodily sensations. By practicing mindfulness, individuals can learn to manage their anxiety symptoms and increase their tolerance for discomfort in social situations.
4. Social Skills Training: This involves teaching individuals specific social skills, such as effective communication, assertiveness, and conflict resolution. By practicing these skills in therapy sessions and real-life situations, individuals can improve their confidence and ability to interact with others.
5. Supportive Therapy: Providing a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to express their feelings and fears can be essential. The therapist can offer emotional support, validation, and guidance throughout the therapeutic process.
6. Medication: In some cases, medication may be prescribed alongside therapy to help manage the symptoms of social anxiety disorder. Psychotherapists may work collaboratively with psychiatrists or other medical professionals to determine the need for medication.
It's important to note that the specific approach used may vary depending on the therapist's training, the severity of the individual's symptoms, and their preferences. A psychotherapist will typically tailor the treatment plan to the unique needs and goals of each person with social anxiety disorder.

Regina is Saskatchewan's capital and second-largest city, situated on the open prairie in a region where geographic isolation and harsh winters contribute to elevated rates of depression, loneliness, and seasonal affective disorder across the province. The city has a significant Indigenous population, and the mental health landscape reflects both the broader Canadian context of truth and reconciliation and the specific intergenerational trauma experienced by First Nations and Métis communities in Saskatchewan. The University of Regina offers psychology programs and student counselling services, and both the public health system and a growing private therapy sector serve the wider community. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and the psychological impact of extreme cold and geographic isolation on daily wellbeing.
