Self Esteem
Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Systems of oppression impact self-esteem by perpetuating discrimination, marginalization, and negative stereotypes that devalue us based on race, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status or other identities. These oppressive systems can lead to internalized negative beliefs, chronic stress and diminished self-worth as we constantly face societal messages that undermine their value and abilities. This ongoing marginalization and exclusion contribute to feelings of inferiority, powerlessness and self-doubt, significantly harming self-esteem and overall mental health. My approach to therapy actively works to reduce sexism, racism, classism, ableism, weightism and other exclusionary classes by helping you understand how you have been impacted by these systems and deconstructing the beliefs youhold that perpetuate these exclusionary institutions.

Bruce Clark
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Struggling with self-esteem can leave you feeling not good enough or feelings of frequent comparison. Maybe you have low self-esteem in general. Maybe you struggle with imposter syndrome. Regardless, these patterns often run deep, shaped by past experiences and internalized messages. In therapy, I help you explore where these beliefs come from, build self-compassion, and reconnect with a more confident, grounded sense of who you are.

Self Esteem
Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self Esteem has numerous ways that it can become a struggle; maybe it’s a lack of confidence, maybe it’s not believing you deserve good things, maybe it’s less noticeable ways that you forget to take care of yourself, and sometimes it’s a doubt that underneath it all, there is a self that exists, let alone deserves esteem. As a psychologist specializing in building deeper connection to one’s self, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to open shame-free spaces and explore who you are and who you want to be. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our sense of self is formed or disrupted by our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

Fallon Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, LPC
"Low self-esteem can often act as an internal critic, making it difficult to recognize your own worth or pursue the things that bring you fulfillment. In our sessions, I offer a gentle, non-judgmental space to help you quiet that inner critic and begin building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself. We will work together to identify the roots of these negative self-perceptions and use practical, evidence-based strategies to cultivate genuine self-acceptance and confidence. My goal is to help you replace self-doubt with self-compassion, empowering you to embrace your strengths and live a life that feels authentic and truly your own."

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who appear capable and put together but carry a quiet, persistent sense of not being enough. This can look like self‑criticism, difficulty trusting your own judgment, comparing yourself to others, downplaying your own needs or accomplishments, or feeling like you are always falling short of who you are supposed to be. Many of the adults I see have spent years meeting expectations, supporting others, or performing well in work or school while privately feeling inadequate, invisible, or unsure of their worth.
Low self‑esteem often develops in environments where your needs were minimized, where you were praised for being responsible or easy, or where you learned to stay small to avoid conflict or disappointment. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself, how you move through relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want.
In our work together, we explore the origins of these beliefs and how they show up in your body, emotions, and daily life. We look at the roles you have carried, the expectations you have internalized, and the parts of you that are tired of feeling not enough. The goal is not to create artificial confidence but to help you develop a more grounded, accurate sense of yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice. Supporting people who have learned to minimize themselves or feel “not enough” is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve worked to hold things together.

Too often we treat ourselves as our own worst enemy. This is not fair and often learned. You can learn to change your self-talk, see yourself in your best light and open up possibilities that may be been difficult to see in the past.

Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have worked throughout my career to help individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) identify who and/or what contributes to their low sense of self. I help them to identify strengths, and focus on what is in that person's control in an effort to take the power away from what has historically contributed to their self-perception.

Birmingham carries one of the most significant civil rights legacies of any American city — the site of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing and pivotal moments in the fight for racial justice — and this history creates a distinctive context in which racial identity, historical trauma, and community resilience are active themes in local therapy culture. The city is home to UAB (University of Alabama at Birmingham), one of the country's premier academic medical centers, which anchors significant mental health research, training, and clinical infrastructure. Birmingham's African American community — which comprises a majority of the city's population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. The broader Birmingham metro's mix of healthcare, finance, and manufacturing industries creates diverse occupational therapy demand across a metropolitan area larger than the city itself.
