Kyle Davies
Psychologist, BSc MPhil CPsychol AFBPsS
Social anxiety is one of the biggest challenges people face in modern life. My work seeks to understand the underlying reason or cause for the symptoms of social anxiety. Rather than simply apply coping mechanisms, we look to address the root cause so you are empowered to take charge of your wellbeing and experience as you move forward.

"Before I tried hypnotherapy I heard many stories how people lost weight without having operation, stopped smoking, got rid of different fears. My problem was I couldn’t answer the phone in the office while my colleagues were working close to my desk. I was not confident dealing with people on the phone and it was destroying me every day. This was my first experience having hypnotherapy. The session itself was very pleasant, I was so relaxed and calm like never before. After the hypnotherapy I started feeling different. It is strange, I got this confidence that I was always lacking. I couldn’t get this confidence myself and during the hypnosis session my unconscious mind was told to be confident. It is amazing how well it works! Our brain is powerful to change everything but sometimes we need a little help." (Lina)

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for social anxiety, including fear of judgment, self-consciousness, overthinking social interactions, and avoidance of situations where you feel observed or evaluated. Social anxiety can often lead to feelings of isolation, exhaustion from “masking,” and a constant concern about how you are perceived by others.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, offering a steady and non-judgemental space to explore both the present-day experience of anxiety in social situations and the deeper emotional and relational roots that may underpin it. Together, we may look at early attachment experiences, internalised beliefs, and past relational dynamics that shape how safety, visibility, and connection are experienced with others.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how experiences of criticism, rejection, bullying, or emotional misattunement can contribute to ongoing social anxiety and sensitivity in relationships. Therapy provides a space to gently explore these experiences and begin to shift the internal patterns that maintain anxiety over time.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you notice how anxiety shows up in the body, such as tension, breath restriction, or nervous system activation, supporting greater grounding and regulation in moments of stress. Psychoeducation may be used to increase understanding of anxiety processes, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional regulation and reduce intensity in anxious states.
Therapy is collaborative and paced according to your needs, helping you develop greater confidence, ease, and self-compassion in social situations, and a more secure sense of self in relation to others.

Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons)
Social anxiety can develop around experiences of rejection, criticism, exclusion or relational threat. I use an attachment-informed, trauma-sensitive and somatic approach to explore the protective patterns that emerge around social connection, while building greater internal safety, confidence and flexibility in relationships.

Swansea is Wales's second city and a coastal university town — home to Swansea University and University of Wales Trinity Saint David — generating significant student mental health demand and academic training pipelines that feed into the local therapy community. The city has a distinct Welsh identity, and a meaningful number of residents prefer Welsh-language therapy, particularly for emotionally complex work best expressed in their first language. Swansea Bay University Health Board provides NHS mental health services, with a private practice community concentrated in Sketty, Uplands, and the Marina. Swansea's post-industrial character — shaped by the decline of its copper smelting and coal industries — means therapists frequently work with intergenerational economic stress and community resilience themes.
