Very long time no hear - I'm so glad you found the site. It is a small virtual world huh?? hehe How have things been going? I haven't been over to the SAS chat and forums in forever...think I'll pop over there and see what's going on. Probably a good idea to plug our blog as well. Hope all is well with you my friend. -Shawn Hey Jeffrey!! Very long time no hear – I’m so glad you found the site. It is a small virtual world huh?? hehe

For therapists I would suggest checking out these sites: http://www.adaa.org/GettingHelp/FindATherapist.asp http://www.anxietycanada.ca/newenglish.htm http://www.mentalhealthcanada.com/ I believe there may be info on support groups at some of those as well. Also, you may want to join Dr. Richards' mailing list from the Social Anxiety Institute. It normally has a listing of support groups all over the US and Canada. Here is the link to subscribe: http://www.socialanxietyinstitute.org/mailing.html Good luck! Shawn Hello Tony,

I also suffer from social anxiety, I'm wandering if you know of any good therapists who specialize in treating social anxiety in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada or the surrounding area. I'm also interesed in any support groups that may be available in my area. Any advice, information you can provide on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

The books are very helpful and a good start to getting a better handle on SAD and to development more self-awareness in general. The harder step, like you mentioned, is actually the doing part - working on those exercises and that has been my struggle over the years. So I think a good combo of knowledge and practice is the key to moving past this and living the life you really want to live. Thanks again, Shawn Hello Francis and thanks for the comment.

The books you talk about seem to be quite helpful. I have read a few SA books but I haven't quite done the exercises. Knowledge helps but mostly likely action is the only way to solve this.
