What it looks like
Intense anxiety in social situations, fear of negative judgement, blushing, trembling, mental blanks, over-analysing afterwards («what did I say, what did they think»). Gradually you avoid what makes you anxious, and so the anxiety grows.
Why it persists
Avoidance brings momentary relief but teaches the brain that «it really was dangerous», so next time is worse. This avoidance cycle is exactly what can be broken.
How we work together
We understand the triggers, work on self-criticism and catastrophic predictions, and gradually, in steady steps, you move back toward the situations you avoid, until they stop scaring you.
What to expect
50-minute sessions, online or in person in Thessaloniki, in Greek or English. No commitment.
