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.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Social anxiety seems like such a current issue to me, and I see people struggling under the weight of it at times in all areas of my life. We are bombarded with how we are supposed to do this thing called life, our values, appearance, views and so on are brought into question and there feels like there is no escape from it. What this can bring about is a fear of being seen, a fear of not getting it right, or not fitting in. We can start to question the safety of being out in the world where others might see that you are doing it wrong - or more realistic not doing it how they would. It can bring limitations in your life which stop you from doing what you want, stop you from connecting with others, stop you getting the most out of each day. Believe you can change this and know you do not have to do it alone. Asking for support is one of the most important choices you might make today.

Dr David Tilbrook
Psychologist, Chartered Clinical Psychologist Specialising in Psychotherapy with Senior Practitioner Status
Underlying concerns about how others might be seeing us is often a mixture of important and complex feelings about how we have been treated in the past and our responses to those experiences, along with our desires and wishes for satisfying relationships and interactions. We will work effectively to clarify these processes and support you to work through and overcome any internal emotional obstacles so you can feel confident and strong in your relationships.

Donna Mitchell
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
I find the way we feel around others has a lot do with how we feel towards ourselves. I naturally see the best in people and can work with you to be more on your own team and less self critical. We can work to increase your confidence by changing how you see yourself and talk to yourself.
