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.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you constantly seeking acceptance from others? Do you struggle with being your authentic self because you worry about how other's perceive you? Do you avoid social situations because you fear you may say something wrong or not be liked by others? Anxiety can be debilitating in social situations. CBT is often used to assist individuals with increasing confidence in social situations and learning how to give oneself grace when they say or do something wrong. Dr. Goodwin will work on helping individuals to let go of the idea that they need to be perfect, or what they perceive as the perfect person, to be liked by others so they can work on being the person they were meant to be. Together, we can work on helping you to believe in yourself and be the best version of who you are meant to be.

Jill Verofsky
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Social anxiety isn't just "shyness" or being an introvert—it is an intense, self-focused fear of being scrutinized, judged, or rejected in social or performance settings that causes real functional impairment.

Social Anxiety
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions feel like high-stakes performances, leaving you preoccupied with how others perceive you or replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. You may avoid certain situations, hold back from speaking up, or put significant energy into appearing confident while privately worrying about being judged. It's exhausting. In our work together, we’ll identify the patterns that make social situations feel so difficult and practice approaching them differently, so you can feel more at ease, speak more freely, show up genuinely, and build connections without the pressure to get everything right.
