From not wanting to attend family gatherings, to friends' parties to work events, social anxiety can be quite pervasive and isolating. As humans we are wired for connection and clients who suffer from social anxiety can find it hard to obtain the very connection they seek. I work with clients to understand the origins of their social anxiety and unpack its purpose in the client's life to date. I work collaboratively with the client to discover how we can shift these patterns of thinking and interacting with other to help them to regulate their anxiety and accompanying emotions better, thus, supporting them in seeking connection 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.
Anxiety is the most common mental health issue in Australia, with millions of us suffering from it. This may not be due to our environment or circumstances; studies have shown that brain chemicals play a major role in how we deal with stressful or difficult situations, and how anxious we generally can be.
This doesn’t mean that we’re stuck feeling this way. There are many strategies for managing anxiety and they are easy to learn.
Together, we work to reduce fears around social anxiety, build social skills, and increase confidence, enabling you to navigate social situations with greater ease and comfort. I help clients overcome social anxiety through personalised strategies and evidence-based techniques.
