Social anxiety has it's root in a lack self-love. When we are not consciously and/or unconsciously comfortable with ourselves, we are immediately fearful of rejection from the people around us. This results in a heightened arousal of the nervous system to prepare for rejection, judgement, and failure.

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.

Dr Julian Thompson
Psychologist, BSci (Hons), GradDPsych, PGradDPsych, DPsych (Clinical), MAPS
Social anxiety is certainly an area of speciality and interest for me as a clinical psychologist. I aim to help the client understand their anxiety better and to develop effective ways of managing anxiety. Anxiety can really get in the way of living and experiencing life the way we want, and my work is focused on helping clients develop the ability to once again move in valued directions without anxiety being in control any more.
