In this accessible talk, Rachel would like to share ideas about social anxiety and its implications for clinical practice. Using perspectives from attachment theory and developmental psychology, Rachel will provide an account of the nature of early relating and its impact upon the development of a socially anxious self. Rachel will then provide a comprehensive overview of how social anxiety presents in adults, utilising Cognitive Behavioural, Humanistic and Psychodynamically informed approaches. This will lead to the sharing of a integrative, relationally informed treatment approach to working with socially anxious clients.
