Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in self-esteem, my approach to therapy is focused on fostering a sense of worth, confidence, and self-compassion in individuals. Through evidence-based interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and strengths-based approaches, I help clients identify and challenge negative self-beliefs while building on their strengths and achievements. By exploring past experiences, societal influences, and interpersonal dynamics, we work collaboratively to address underlying factors contributing to low self-esteem. Additionally, I teach practical techniques for assertive communication, setting boundaries, and practicing self-care to promote self-empowerment and resilience. My goal is to support individuals in developing a more positive self-concept, enhancing their overall well-being, and navigating life with greater confidence and authenticity.

Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a compassionate journey toward self-discovery and self-esteem building. I understand the silent struggles that come with low self-worth — the doubts, the internal criticisms, and the fear of not being 'enough.' With a heart full of empathy and understanding, I guide my clients to gently peel back the layers of their self-perception, revealing the unique and intrinsic value of each person. Together, we work to transform negative self-talk into empowering affirmations, turning personal challenges into opportunities for growth. This journey is about more than just feeling better about oneself; it's about embracing and celebrating your true self, unleashing the confidence and self-love that has always been there, waiting to be acknowledged and flourished.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
In therapy, addressing self-esteem concerns involves creating a supportive and nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their beliefs, emotions, and experiences with compassion and understanding. Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques, narrative therapy, and mindfulness practices, I help clients challenge negative self-talk, identify underlying core beliefs, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate self-view. By exploring past experiences, traumas, and societal influences, clients gain insight into the origins of their self-esteem issues and develop strategies for building self-acceptance and resilience.
