Hannah Shevitz
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCMH, NCC, M.S.
Social anxiety often shows up not only in thoughts but also in the body, through tension, restlessness, or a racing heart. I help clients explore how past experiences, relational patterns, and internalized expectations shape these fears, while also developing tools to feel safer and more grounded in social situations. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, paced to your readiness, and focused on supporting growth, connection, and self confidence.

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.
