Self Esteem therapists in Holts Summit, Missouri MO
Self Esteem
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.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
How we feel about ourselves often will influence how we see relationships, life satisfaction, and the world around us. When we see ourselves negatively, we tend to put ourselves down and only believe negative appraisals of who we are. Therapy can help challenge that tendency to be self-critical and only see our worst qualities and build a better understanding about our strengths, attributes, and positive characteristics. We can learn how to show ourselves kindness and compassion and this will help us be better people who are able to be resilient and confront the challenges we face in our lives.
