Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
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.

Do you struggle taking the first steps to get closer to others and feel detached?
Do you experience tension or conflict when you get closer to your acquaintances?
Do you feel anxious in social situations and shy away from closer connections?
Do you long for more enjoyment and fun in your social experience?
While we desire relationships and connections with others outside of our immediate families, we may experience difficulty establishing and maintaining these relationships .
If you are someone who…
looks for closer connections

get anxious when talking to strangers or in social gatherings
… then I may be able to help. I can assist you in improving your communication and interpersonal skills to bring you closer to others. While conflict can surface in every human interaction, if it is handled skillfully with warmth and respect, there is a great chance to develop closer and more meaningful relationships.
I have experience helping people manage relationship conflicts, attachment difficulties and social anxiety. Please contact me if you are interested in exploring these services.

Social Anxiety
Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It is incredibly exhausting to walk into a room and instantly feel like everyone is judging you, or to spend hours overthinking a casual conversation after it’s already over. Social anxiety loves to make you feel isolated and keep you playing small to avoid embarrassment. We will work together to lower that intense internal pressure, quiet the fear of rejection, and build realistic comfort so you can show up in social or professional spaces without your nervous system going into overdrive.
