Social skills training would be the best choice for Nora's situation as it focuses on teaching assertiveness and communication skills through role-playing and modeling behavior. It is also a relatively short-term therapy that can result in positive changes quickly. Psychoanalysis and systematic desensitization typically take longer and may not directly address Nora's assertiveness issue. Rational-emotive therapy focuses on changing irrational beliefs and attitudes, which may not be the main cause of Nora's timidity.
