Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has been shown to be very effective in the treatment of social phobia.  Cognitive behaviour therapy for social phobia may integrate a range of different interventions such as relaxation techniques to teach people how to manage their anxiety using adaptive coping strategies, thought challenging techniques to teach people to appraise their performance in social situations from a more objective perspective and exposure therapy techniques to teach people how to confront their fears in a safe and controlled manner.
