Social Anxiety
Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When social anxiety makes your world feel small, it’s often because of internal stories about judgment and worth. Using evidence-based tools, we identify these patterns and practice new behaviors that bridge the gap between isolation and connection. Together we can get you navigating social spaces with greater freedom.

Social Anxiety
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.

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
Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I approach therapy from the belief that emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and other psychological concerns are best understood not only by their symptoms, but by how we respond to pain, uncertainty, expectations, and change. My work often focuses on helping clients recognize unhelpful patterns, become less governed by comparison or rigid thinking, tolerate discomfort more effectively, and identify small but meaningful shifts that can change the direction of their lives. Rather than viewing people as simply “right or wrong” or “well or unwell,” I try to understand what is happening, how it developed, and what may help someone move forward with greater awareness, flexibility, and intention.

Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating social anxiety. My professional journey includes working in hospital settings, private practice, and serving as a medical officer in the U.S. Army, where I gained invaluable experience addressing diverse mental health concerns. Over the years, I have honed my skills in evidence-based therapies for social anxiety, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), through advanced training at leading military treatment facilities and esteemed private practices.
These experiences have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges posed by social anxiety and strengthened my dedication to providing compassionate, effective care. My mission is to help you overcome the limitations of social anxiety, build confidence, and lead a more connected and meaningful life. Together, we will create a personalized therapeutic plan tailored to your needs, ensuring you feel supported and empowered every step of the way.
