Social Anxiety
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like a minefield. Overthinking every word, dreading being judged, exhausted before you've even walked in the room. If connection feels more draining than fulfilling because of this, let's work together to help you feel more at ease with others.
The first step in working with social anxiety is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you. Your mind has simply learned to treat connection as a threat, and that can be unlearned. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where this anxiety comes from and build confidence and tools for showing up as yourself in social situations. My approach centres self-compassion, gradual exposure, and practical strategies that fit your life.
You don't have to face this alone. Let's take the first step toward feeling more comfortable in your own skin, with others.

Anxiety and phobias can be debilitating. While CBT and mindfulness can be helpful, they are not the only treatment for anxiety. I tailor my approach to your needs.

Social Anxiety
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.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
It can be difficult to admit to social anxiety, but it is surprisingly common. Lack of safety in being one's 'true self', or feeling safe to express ones inner world, especially in one's early life, can be contributive to an underlying anxiety in social settings. Many of us navigate life with various measures in place to cope with social anxiety, such as 'masking' or substance use which may serve to alleviate temporary anxiety but reinforces the cycle, rather than address the root cause of the anxiety in the first place. Like any other challenge, i will work with you as an integrative psychotherapist to understand these root causes of the patterns shaping your experience of social life, so that you can transform them on a deep emotional level, opening yourself up to a new way of being in the world.
