How to overcome social anxiety

Social anxiety disorder, sometimes called social phobia, is a constant and overwhelming fear of social situations.

Many sufferers go through life accompanied by constant worries and fears which can affect their ability to take part in social activities or form relationships.

It’s quite a common problem that often starts during the childhood and adolescence. Some people just grow out of it, but for many it doesn’t go away on its own.

It can be very debilitating and have a big impact on your life, but there are ways we can help you deal with it. I can help you learn to overcome social anxiety.

Please don’t suffer in silence. There may be lots of reason why you keep your feelings of anxiety to yourself. Regardless, you can talk to me and not only can you talk to me about it, I will do something about it.

How I can help you overcome social anxiety

Here at Behavioural Freedom, I treat the symptoms of social anxiety using a tried and tested combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnosis known as Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy, or CBH. You can read more about CBH here but essentially, it’s a fully integrated approach to the treatment of stress and anxiety and in a nutshell, these are the benefits to you –

• The addition of hypnotherapy to CBT has been proven to shorten treatment times
• Hypnosis enables you to see things more vividly in your ‘mind’s eye’
• Hypnosis solidifies the relationship and builds rapport between you and your therapist
• You can learn to ‘self-hypnotise’ by inducing a deep state of relaxation
• Under hypnosis, you have an increased opportunity of receiving and understanding the suggestions your therapist makes to free you from unwanted behaviours

Behavioural Freedom is both the name of my business but it’s also a state of mind and my goal is to put you back on the path to behavioural freedom so you can start looking forward to tomorrow and stop dreading it.
