You can role play with him if he is open to it. Counseling would help.
Therapy can be very helpful in managing social anxiety and in some situations the combination of medications such as SSRIs and therapy can be the ideal treatment.
This is a significant problem that probably requires professional intervention and perhaps medication. A child psychiatrist would be your best choice.
