Anxiety loves a mystery. 'What is somebody else thinking about me?' is a great mystery that social anxiety fills in with all the worst endings. Working with social anxiety we can disconnect from the constant guessing, hiding and freezing to allow you to live more freely in the world with everybody else.
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Recreation Therapist, I specialize in treating a wide range of anxiety disorders including social anxiety and phobias. Through the use of supportive, client-centered approaches, I can help you with practical, effective, and meaningful solutions to social anxiety that will move you toward greater confidence in all areas of your life.
I help women who are suffering with social anxiety. Social anxiety usually stems from low self worth and self esteem. I know what it’s like, I have been there and I can help you become more confident in social situations.
Mindfulness and cognitive behaviour therapy approaches have been used to treat social anxiety with great success. I am trained in mindfulness based interventions and cognitive behaviour therapy as well as emotion focused therapy all of which can be used to learn skills and better manage social anxiety.
Social anxiety can make us feel so disconnected and overwhelmed. Using a variety of modalities, we can support you to decrease your feelings of anxiety in social situations.
