Social Anxiety
Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
At Full Being Services, we understand that social anxiety is more than shyness—it’s a deeply felt fear of judgment, rejection, or inadequacy that can impact work, relationships, and daily life. Our trauma-informed, culturally responsive approach helps clients explore the underlying causes of anxiety while developing practical tools to navigate social situations with confidence.
We work with adolescents, young adults, and adults to build emotional regulation, communication skills, and self-compassion, while gradually expanding comfort and connection in social and professional settings. Therapy focuses on understanding triggers, reframing self-talk, and practicing strategies that make social engagement feel safe and manageable.
Social anxiety counseling at Full Being Services empowers clients to move from avoidance and self-doubt toward meaningful connection, authenticity, and a greater sense of ease in navigating the world.

Social Anxiety
Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social anxiety is more than shyness or being introverted. It is a persistent fear of being judged, embarrassed, or seen in a negative light that makes ordinary social situations feel genuinely threatening. For many men, it shows up as dreading conversations, avoiding situations where attention might land on them, replaying interactions afterward looking for what went wrong, or holding back in professional and personal settings in ways that quietly limit their lives.
The frustrating part is that social anxiety often coexists with real capability. Many of the men I work with are intelligent, self-aware, and accomplished in other areas. The anxiety is not about lacking social skills. It is about a deeply ingrained pattern of threat perception that fires in situations where it does not need to, and a set of avoidance behaviors that provide short term relief while making the anxiety stronger over time.
In our work together, we get specific about where social anxiety is showing up, what is driving it, and what it is costing you. We work on the thought patterns that fuel it, build practical skills for navigating the situations you have been avoiding, and develop a more grounded and realistic way of relating to other people and to yourself in social contexts.
My approach is direct and structured. I do not believe in simply processing anxiety indefinitely. I believe in building the kind of confidence that comes from actual experience, supported by the right tools and a clear plan for getting there.
If social anxiety has been holding you back and you are ready to address it, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Social Anxiety
Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
Social anxiety is more than shyness—it’s the persistent fear of judgment, exposure, or saying the wrong thing that leads to avoidance, over-monitoring, or withdrawal. Many high-functioning men manage work and responsibilities well while quietly avoiding social situations, speaking up, or forming deeper connections.
Therapy for social anxiety focuses on reducing threat sensitivity, unlearning self-critical patterns, and building steady confidence in real-world interactions. With structured, evidence-based work, men learn to engage socially without overthinking, regain ease around others, and show up more fully in professional and personal settings.

Social Anxiety
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can be an effective tool for treating social anxiety by helping individuals overcome the fear and discomfort associated with social situations. Through relaxation techniques and positive suggestion, hypnotherapists support clients in accessing subconscious beliefs that contribute to anxiety, enabling them to reframe negative self-perceptions and develop greater confidence. This approach may reduce physiological symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heartbeat or sweating, and promote calmer, more adaptive responses in social settings. Integrated with other therapies, hypnotherapy empowers individuals to build self-assurance and engage more comfortably in social interactions.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with thoughtful, high‑achieving adults, often sensitive or highly self‑aware, who struggle with social anxiety. You may care deeply about connection but find that being around others brings up a lot of worry, overthinking, or dread. On the outside, you may seem capable and composed; inside, it can feel like a constant evaluation of how you are coming across. Social anxiety can feel like living in your head while your body is in the room. I work extensively with social anxiety in high‑responsibility adults and know how consuming it can feel, even when no one else sees it.
It can look like replaying conversations and worrying you said the wrong thing; avoiding gatherings, calls, or new situations because they feel too intense; fear of being judged, embarrassed, or seen as awkward or boring; difficulty speaking up in groups, at work, or in class; feeling like you do not quite know the rules that other people seem to follow; or wanting close relationships but pulling back when things get more vulnerable. Over time, this can lead to isolation, loneliness, or feeling stuck in patterns you do not want.
In our work together, we get curious about where this started and how it shows up now. We make room for the part of you that is trying to keep you safe by staying small or hidden. From there, we explore small, doable steps toward more ease and authenticity with the people and situations that matter most to you, so you do not have to choose between protecting yourself and having the connections you want.
