Social anxiety reflects a common mental health concern associated with intense anxiety and a fear of judgement from others that is experienced before, during, and after social events. Clinical psychology graduate students from the University of Waterloo will discuss how social anxiety may present and how to differentiate it from shyness and normative social concerns. This program will provide listeners with an understanding of social anxiety and its impact on individuals. Tips and strategies for feeling comfortable in social situations will also be shared.
