Social Anxiety
Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Social anxiety can manifest in many ways. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, flushing of the face, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation in social and performance situations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming social anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

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.
16 Years Experience
Online in Amarillo, TX Texas (Online Only)
Amarillo sits at the heart of the Texas Panhandle — a vast agricultural and energy-producing region — with a therapy community shaped by its role as the commercial and medical center for a large, largely rural surrounding population. The city's predominantly conservative, faith-oriented culture means spiritually integrated therapy is a mainstream part of the local offering rather than a specialty niche. Baptist St. Anthony Health System and Northwest Texas Healthcare System provide institutional mental health anchors for the Panhandle region, with a private therapy community that serves both city residents and clients traveling in from smaller surrounding communities. Amarillo's significant Hispanic population and growing refugee and immigrant communities create ongoing demand for bilingual and culturally informed therapists.
