Have you read "Constructive Living" by David Reynolds? Or his other works? I just ordered it and another-"Playing Ball on Running Water". His philosophy is suppose to be a great help for "fourness" and talks about shyness as well as other things. I read that this book had been a great help to many 4's even though it appears somewhat cold and "unfeeling" which flies in the face of "fourness" I have read and tried some of the exercises and ideas and I think it could work-just a suggestion. I haven't read or used it long enough to really know, I read about it on one of the Enneagram pages-I believe one of Clarence Thomas's(name?) lessons on Fours.
Hope this is some help. Has anyone else read his works and found them to be helpful? (not just 4's necessarily)
