Self Esteem therapists in Seaside, California CA
Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
I believe that one of the pathways towards self-discovery, self-empowerment and self-love is through the creative spirit. Creativity, imagination, and self-expression can awaken our soul’s innate power to heal itself. Expressive Arts Therapies (EXA) include the full spectrum of creative mediums (Visual Arts, Illustration, Sculpture, Textiles, Film, Animation, Photography, Performing Arts, Theatre, Dance, Music, etc.) as clinically valuable in therapy.
*You don’t have to “be an artist” or “be good at art” to engage with Expressive Arts Therapies. The value of EXA is more about the act of being creative and how it affects your brain functioning, consciousness, self-awareness, and capacity to make new neural pathways, beliefs and thought patterns… It is less about skill-level and conventional aesthetics and more about the heart and soul you give to the process.

Psychologist, PhD
I help individuals who struggle with low self-esteem with an evidence-based approach called Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC). It combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion and provides a powerful tool for emotional resilience. Over a thousand research studies have demonstrated that people who are more self-compassionate experience less depression, anxiety, stress, and shame and more happiness, life satisfaction, self-confidence, and physical health. Together, we can work on increasing your ability to relate to yourself with the same kindness and compassion that you would show to a good friend.

Good self-esteem is at the heart of self-love and satisfaction with one's life. We see many clients who struggle with low self-esteem and are skilled in helping identify the contributing factors and working through the challenges and traumas which have been internalized to contribute to the low self-esteem.

COPE Psychological Center
Psychologist, PhD
Low self-esteem is one of the most common human experiences. We strive to understand the developmental and childhood experiences that created the messages you've internalized. We utilize a cognitive behavioral approach to help you see how those messages have shaped you, your relationships, and the world around you and to ultimately help you create a different internal monologue that is more adaptive, helpful, and reflective of the person you truly are.
