Social Anxiety
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns), Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor to assist you further where requested.
Social anxiety can be debilitating in hampering healthy, confident interaction with others and can lead to isolation and loneliness. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from social anxiety to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Social Anxiety
Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can feel incredibly exposing, like there's nowhere to hide. Introducing ourselves to a bunch of people or saying our name in a group can feel like a terrifying and even life-threatening task. And that's before we even get to giving a public talk.
There's usually a fear of being judged, criticised or shamed. And the fear of the anxiety arising in company is usually more debilitating than the anxiety itself. The important thing to know is that it's a very normal fear, and that lots of people experience it.

Ashore Wellness
Registered Social Worker, AASW, ACA
I help clients with social anxiety by using Narrative Therapy to explore the stories and beliefs that contribute to feelings of fear or inadequacy in social settings. Together, we work to reframe these narratives, empowering clients to approach social interactions with greater confidence and self-compassion. I integrate Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to develop practical tools for managing anxiety in the moment and building emotional resilience. Through a culturally sensitive lens, I honor each client’s unique experiences and values, tailoring strategies to help them feel more at ease and authentically connected in their relationships and social environments.

Felix Perigrie
Counsellor/Therapist, B. Coun, M. Narrative Therapy and Community Work
How much of your time is spent planning to survive going outside? When you're out, is all your attention on the social scripts you need to follow, noticing and responding to other people's words and body language, or trying to keep yourself small, contained, and inoffensive to avoid being rejected? Maybe something has happened, and now being around people brings back memories that overwhelm you, or make you act in certain ways. You deserve to feel comfortable in yourself, and enjoy time with friends without the constant worries of how you're percieved, and we can find the ways to achieve that together.
