Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is a common mental health problem that usually starts in early life and persists without treatment. It is impairing, brining the risk of peer problems, school under attainment, depression and suicidality. The need for effective and accessible treatment of SAD is evident. In this talk, I will describe our approach to this challenge. I will share insights from our work examining the cognitive and behavioural mechanisms of social anxiety in adolescence, and then I will outline development and progress with our brief digital therapy.
