Robin Renucci
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, Ed.S, M.Ed, LPC, NCC
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming—whether it’s speaking in groups, meeting new people, attending social events, or expressing your needs. I work with individuals who experience intense self-consciousness, fear of judgment, or avoidance in social situations, helping them move toward greater confidence and ease in their relationships and daily lives.
Together, we explore the roots of your anxiety, identify specific triggers, and develop practical, evidence-based strategies to reduce fear and build self-assurance. My approach is gentle, supportive, and tailored to your pace, focusing on both skill-building and the emotional insight needed for lasting change.
With time and support, it is possible to shift from avoidance to connection—and to engage more fully in life with authenticity, presence, and self-trust.

Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
Children and adolescents suffer intense distress when affected by social anxiety. They can manifest their discomfort by avoiding anxiety-inducing situations whenever anxiety feelings are triggered.
Young kids can express their discomfort by a rapid change in mood, tantrums, and crying; older ones may experience panic reactions and physical signs like shortness of breath shaking, sweating, stomachaches and nausea.
One of the most significant consequences of social anxiety is that it can prevent individuals from taking risks and trying new things, ultimately blocking them from reaching their full potential.
Talking to a therapist about their feelings and learning techniques to deal with social anxiety allows kids to feel less overwhelmed, less upset and scared, and eventually more in control of themselves and their environment
