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!

Even though we need connection in our lives, if may be difficult to feel confident in social situations. We will explore what led you to feel this way and find ways of developing Self confidence and Self esteem and to start re-engaging with the world.
People on the spectrum may find this particularly challenging: we will assess whether this could be the cause for disconnection and work with whatever you are presenting.

Edinburgh's identity as Scotland's capital and a major university city — home to the University of Edinburgh, one of the world's leading research institutions — creates strong demand for therapists experienced with academic pressure, young adult transitions, and the challenges of a highly competitive intellectual environment. The city's large student population, tourism sector workforce, and growing tech community each generate distinct therapy needs, from performance anxiety and identity exploration to burnout and occupational stress. NHS Lothian provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in Stockbridge, Morningside, and the New Town. Edinburgh's annual Festival season brings an influx of creative professionals and associated mental health demands around performance, identity, and the pressures of public artistic life.
