Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt your heart race—wondering what people are thinking about you, or wishing you could disappear before anyone notices? Social anxiety can make even simple moments—talking in class, attending church, meeting new people—feel like survival. Over time, the worry turns into withdrawal, and loneliness begins to take root.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand how exhausting it is to overthink every word and every glance. Our Christian counselors help you quiet the noise of self-criticism, retrain your body’s stress response, and build confidence that lasts beyond the next conversation.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use faith-integrated, evidence-based methods—including CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic grounding, and exposure techniques—combined with biblical truth and compassionate guidance to help you:
• Calm the physical symptoms of anxiety in social settings
• Overcome fear of judgment and rejection
• Strengthen communication and self-expression
• Build authentic connections and trust
• Restore peace through a renewed sense of identity in Christ
You don’t have to live trapped inside your own thoughts. With practical tools, gentle exposure, and spiritual grounding, you can learn to walk into any room with calm confidence—rooted not in others’ approval, but in God’s love for you.
If you’re ready to stop hiding and start living freely, Rising Calm Center is here to help you find your voice and your peace again.

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.

Joel Schmidt
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or high-stakes, even when others can’t tell. Whether you’re avoiding conversations, overthinking everything you say, or feeling like you can’t be yourself around others, I help clients work through the fear of judgment and build real confidence. You don’t have to become an extrovert. You just need tools to stop anxiety from calling the shots.
