Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
Social anxiety can feel like a judgmental person is staring directly at you, obstructing your view of the actual people in front of you. It can feel like sitting in a dark, cold hole, surrounded by people who seem like a threat. This makes facing social situations feel daunting, leading you to believe that avoiding them is the solution. However, avoidance only reinforces the fear. So, how do you deal with this dilemma?
In my experience, it's about identifying the beliefs you hold, working through any painful past experiences that led to those beliefs, and learning to be your own compassionate friend in social situations.

Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
Human beings are not the only social animal, but our ability to interact with other people is a critical factor in our lives and thereby our sense of wellbeing. Social anxiety arises for many different reasons-- sometimes as a result of difficult experiences during our upbringing, resulting in low self-esteem, for example. In recent times the temptation to compare ourselves to others has been distorted by cultural phenomena such as social media. We are constantly bombarded by images of success, beauty, attainment, wealth, and so on that we can never hope to achieve. This creates an unrealistic sense of worth and worthlessness that sometimes causes us to isolate ourselves even further. Psychological counselling can help evaluate who we really are, what we want to achieve, and how we can do this. In my experience the most effective treatment is an evaluation of the root causes of social anxiety in my clients. I then design a specific coaching program to enable my clients to engage with the social world.

Aleksei Panov
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Psy, MS Psy, RP
For dealing with social anxiety, first of all, I help my clients to manage their physical symptoms of anxiety and then they are able to take control of their bodies, secondly we try to identify automatic negative thoughts and learn how to deal with them and challenge them. We learn how to accept ourselves, and stop worrying about other people's opinions.
