You might be someone who appears confident and capable in many areas of your life. At work, people see you as reliable, thoughtful and competent. But in social situations, something changes. You become more aware of yourself than the conversation. You worry about how you're coming across, replay interactions afterwards and compare yourself with people who seem naturally relaxed. Over time, it's easy to wonder why social situations feel so much harder for you than they seem to for everyone else. Deep down, you may begin to question whether there's something wrong with you.
Many of the people I work with have spent years trying to overcome these feelings by pushing themselves harder, preparing for every conversation or avoiding situations that make them anxious. Together, we'll come to a shared understanding of how these patterns developed and the beliefs about yourself that continue to keep them going.
My approach is calm, collaborative and direct, combining practical CBT strategies with a deeper exploration of the shame and self-worth beliefs that often sit beneath social anxiety. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I'm easy to talk to, honest and good at explaining things clearly. You're welcome to get in touch by email or my website enquiry form

My approach is collaborative, compassionate and practical. We'll first make sense of the experiences that have shaped the way you think, feel and respond, before using evidence-based strategies to help you build confidence and create lasting change.
