Mitchell Kovacs
Counsellor/Therapist, Level 2 Counsellor (ACA)
Social anxiety is an important topic to discuss because it’s common, often invisible, highly limiting, and very treatable—yet many people suffer in silence.

Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist
Social anxiety can make relationships feel both deeply longed for and profoundly difficult. You may find yourself worrying about how you're perceived, holding yourself back, or feeling disconnected from others despite wanting closeness. Rather than seeing these experiences simply as something to overcome, I'm interested in understanding how they developed and the ways they may once have helped you adapt to your environment.
Working with social anxiety begins with creating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, collaborative, and paced with care. Together, we'll explore the experiences, relationships, and patterns that have shaped your sense of yourself in relation to others. We may also pay attention to your body's responses, recognising that social anxiety is often carried not only in our thoughts but in our nervous system.
My approach is grounded in understanding before fixing. Through curiosity, compassion, and a genuine therapeutic relationship, there is an opportunity to experience yourself differently—to develop greater trust in yourself, feel more at ease with others, and discover new ways of relating that feel more authentic and free.

Rosette Rouhana Art Therapy
Art Therapist, Bachelor of Art Therapy
Hello and welcome! I am a registered Arts Therapist and counsellor based in Sydney. I provide art therapy and counselling to individuals diagnosed or living with social anxiety. Through my practice, I make an intentional commitment to support individuals in their health and wellbeing journey. My mission is to enrich and empower the lives of others through creativity and connection. My passion for expressive creative arts has inspired me to further explore how art can be used as a tool for healing, and the ways it can be used in mental health recovery as a psychotherapeutic modality.
