Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Social anxiety comes up in a variety of situations and has multiple symptoms. Perhaps you struggle with public speaking and your mind goes blank or your voice gets shaky. Maybe you blush every time you talk to someone. Perhaps you stutter or fail to make appropriate eye contact. Maybe you are shy and think everyone is scrutinising you or judging you. Perhaps you have experienced panic attacks or you worry excessively about social interactions. Whatever your particular situation, I can offer lots of tools and strategies to help calm your nervous system, tame your thoughts, and manage uncomfortable feelings. You can learn to be cool and calm in your interactions with other people, even if you don't believe you ever could be!

Heather Macfarlane
Registered Psychotherapist, Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist
Like any type of anxiety, social anxiety, leaves us living a limited, smaller life than we might do without it. I can offer a supportive, understanding environment to help you tackle the crippling emotions related to this condition to help you move towards a more relaxed, fulfilled life.

Kajal Sohal
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP-C
Do you replay conversations in your mind, worry about saying the wrong thing, or avoid social situations because you're afraid of being judged or embarrassed? Social anxiety can make everyday experiences—meeting new people, speaking up at work, attending gatherings, or expressing your needs—feel incredibly stressful. You might want meaningful connections but find yourself holding back out of fear of rejection or criticism.
I offer affordable, compassionate counselling to help you navigate social anxiety in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and person-centred approaches, we can explore the thoughts and fears that arise in social situations, develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, and gradually build confidence at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
My approach is also culturally sensitive and neurodivergent-affirming. I recognize that social difficulties can sometimes be influenced by cultural expectations, past experiences, or differences in communication styles. Rather than expecting you to become more outgoing or change your personality, I focus on helping you feel more comfortable expressing yourself authentically.
Together, we can work toward reducing self-consciousness, strengthening communication skills, setting healthy boundaries, and developing greater confidence in relationships and social situations.
You deserve to connect with others without constantly questioning your worth or worrying about what people think. I offer affordable counselling in English and Punjabi and would welcome the opportunity to help you build meaningful connections while feeling more confident being yourself.
