Social Anxiety can affect the way an individual views themselves in the context of their relationships,the world around them and their confidence in themselves. This may lead to avoidant behaviours, negative thoughts and self talk and low confidence to try new things. Therapeutic interventions can help identify and positively change core beliefs and increase confidence.

Rom Malik
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., R.P.
The experience of social anxiety can be a severe hindrance towards happiness, professional achievements, and having the best relationships. Social anxiety is rooted in early experiences. My approach is for us to first see what the social concerns are and then to explore early interactions which have had an impact on their development. We will then work towards dismantling them from the present down to the roots. Clients have experienced a sense of freedom from their constant worries of being judged and a significant improvement in self-confidence and self-expression.

Chris Pankewich
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Masters of Counselling Psychology (MACP)
Social Anxiety can be a deeply personal and unique challenge for each of us. The factors that can lead us to feel on edge or anxious in social situations ca be diverse and it is helpful to first clarify what specific factors are at play for each of us. Once we are aware of the situations and people that can lead us to feel anxious, then we can start to explore ways to reduce the intensity of those feelings and start taking more agency in those situations. Schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.
