Self Esteem therapists in Turlock, California CA
Erica McArn
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self-esteem is an intrinsic self-evaluation and internal labeling of an individual's subjective self-worth. Low self-esteem can have significant negative effects in a person's life and lead to many difficulties from challenges in interpersonal relationships to issues navigating social situations. I work closely with clients utilizing an eclectic approach to explore self-worth, promote positive self-talk/affirmations, and develop goals around improving self-esteem.

Self-esteem issues is a polite way of talking about shame. Underneath the mean things you say about yourself is shame and fear. I've struggled with this most of my life. The terrible things I used to say about myself always seemed to manifest around me, which kept me trapped. We will work to unwind the web of beliefs you have and find the beauty deep inside.

The way we see ourselves is the lens through which we engage in the world around us. Poor self-esteem and feelings of being broken or inadequate triggers sadness or anxiety. On top of that, though, holding a low opinion of ourselves affects the choices we make, too. We may avoid socializing or putting ourselves out there for a big promotion.
In our work together, we will examine these negative beliefs and improve your relationship with yourself.

Self-esteem is a basic human need. A self is there to be realized and celebrated and not to be aborted and denied. Self-esteem is - in a comprehensive sense - the experience of feeling equal to life and all its challenges.
Self Esteem means to respect myself. But how can I deepen my understanding of self-respect and my resolve to uphold it?
Self-respect provides us honor and happiness, something most of us strive for through all sorts of means. We may try to buy our happiness with new technology, clothes, or vacations. We may try to beautify our bodies in hopes that others will honor us and make us feel loved. Many try to climb to unnecessary heights of material wealth to attract the joy we see missing around us. But those methods usually don’t work. If self-respect forms an important part of how we achieve the happiness and honor we crave, it seems pretty important that we understand it.
I work with the method of Nathaniel Branden and support people in the different 6 pillars of self-esteem. These are: 1. living consciously - 2. self-acceptance - 3. living self-reliantly - 4. asserting oneself - 5. living purposefully - 6. personal integrity.
