Social anxiety

  Social anxiety is a common human experience, and everyone feels nervous in social situations at some point, from attending a job interview to giving a presentation. 

However, for some of us, social interactions can trigger fear and worry which is usually caused by the fear of being judged and criticised by others or embarrassing ourselves. This can affect a person’s social and professional life and lead to avoiding situations that are important or undergo them with a great deal of distress. 

Therapy can help identify underlying issues that may have contributed to social anxiety development as well as understanding the link between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours to enable you to find ways to overcome your negative thoughts and beliefs.
