Class 1 Medical with ongoing psychotherapy

Hi,

I am now studying my last year in high school and soon can apply to a flight school. Before that I need to get my Class 1 Medical issued so I can apply for the school I want to apply for, but I have a slight problem.

During my second year in high school, I started to get some kind of anxiety in all matters. I went to the psychologist - no help. I was thinking to get some SSRI's - didn't want to. I wen't to psychotherapy - no anxiety anymore, but I developed some sort of stage fright. The stage fright comes up when I, for example, have to give a presentation for my class and it drives me crazy.

I still go to psychotherapy and can see progress but still haven't gotten rid of the stage fright. Can I get a Class 1 Medical issued with ongoing psychotherapy? I go there because of the stage fright, not anxiety. Any help is appreciated.
