The psychologist I saw at the Social Anxiety Institute only treats folks w/SAD. His first choice is Klonopin, my MD concurred, so that's what I took. (0.5 2 x day, I think). It worked very well for me - within 3 days, I was answering the 'phone & doorbell and going to public places again.
Of course, the REAL treatment was CBT. Happily, my SA is totally gone. (If you're interested, get more info at the Social Anxiety Institute's website.) Now, if only I could shake my general anxiety & dysthymia...
