With the new announcement, the team at Mindful Counselling Australia are dedicated to helping patients overcome social anxiety and improve their lives.
Social anxiety, the third most common form of psychological disorder, is a fear of social activities and situations largely because one believes that others might be judging them negatively. This experience of being uncomfortable or anxious in social situations can be mild, moderate or severe.
The team at Mindful Counselling Australia offer Mindfulness based interventions, Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy to help patients with social anxiety disorder. They will address the thought processes involved in the patient’s fear that others are always negatively judging them, identify those irrational beliefs, and replace them with more realistic views.
The therapy session involves gradually and systematically confronting fears and anxiety-provoking situations that the patient has been avoiding, with the aid and support of the therapist. The goal is to help patients feel relaxed and comfortable in objectively safe situations.
At Mindful Counselling Australia, counselling is offered both in individual and group formats. Group therapy for social anxiety can be a very effective way to confront feared social situations and improve social skills in a supportive environment, in real time.
Asha Padisetti, director of Mindful Counselling Australia, is a psychotherapist, counsellor and educator who has been working with women, adolescents and children struggling with anxiety, depression and other personal issues. She is currently working towards becoming a certified meditation teacher.
A spokesperson for the clinic said: “Our own experiential learning has shown us that by cultivating a mindful approach in life we can become aware, open, curious and present to our experiences. By acknowledging our experiences and seeking appropriate and timely support we can live a more meaningful and beneficial life.”
