Samantha Kingma
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Overthinking, overanalyzing, ruminating, future-tripping, or analysis paralysis—whatever you call it, it can really keep you stuck. If you've been lying awake at night thinking through all the things you said today (or last year), if you've made 8 different to-do lists for the same task, or if you're always running late because it's difficult to organize your thoughts, let's chat. Anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout can significantly impact the way your brain handles the stress of day-to-day life. But there is hope – you don’t have to stay stuck. I'd love to talk to you about how you can begin to feel like yourself again. It is possible to feel like yourself again, and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there. I provide specialized support for individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I will work with you to find the patterns in your life that may be causing problems and then collaborate with you to find new options and restorative solutions. You don’t have to walk through this difficulty alone, and I’d be honored to support you as you move toward healing. Visit my website or fill out the contact form to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about what you’re looking for and whether I might be the right fit for you.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Self Esteem refers to how we feel about ourself. Rational emotive behavior therapy and cognitive behavior therapy help individuals recognize the connection between their low self and how their negative beliefs and self talk impact the way they feel about themselves. Once you understand the thought-feeling connection, you will learn a variety of ways to change the way you think, feel and act. You will learn to challenge and replace unheatlhy thoughts and beliefs with more desirable one and guided into taking positive steps in your life. Ultimately, you will learn to accept yourself unconditionally with all your strengths AND weaknesess.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
There is only one person we will talk to most in our lives and that is ourselves. Therefore, we must watch what we are saying. When one is living with a lot of underlying shame, it impacts how we look at ourselves and view our place in the world. My goal is to help you see the beauty in not only your strengths but also your imperfections and find self acceptance along the journey.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
You may be hard on yourself no matter how much you accomplish. Maybe you question your worth, compare yourself to others, people-please, or rely on outside validation to feel okay. Even when others see your strengths, it can be difficult for you to truly feel them.
Low self-esteem is often rooted in earlier experiences that shaped how you learned to see yourself. In therapy, we’ll explore the beliefs, relational patterns, and nervous system responses that keep self-doubt in place. Over time, you can develop a more grounded sense of worth, stronger boundaries, and a relationship with yourself that feels kinder and more secure.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients build their self-esteem and repair their self view - something that has likely been destroyed by society and feedback from others about their value and worth. Unfortunately, we live in a culture that does not value people equally. Even highly successful individuals can have a vulnerable self-view that gets activated with setbacks, mistakes, or rejection. If you've found your self-esteem plummeting from time to time, it might be worth investigating what's going on at a deeper level.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Shame is a major detriment to self-esteem. Self-esteem is built up in childhood, and if we had abusive or neglectful childhood experiences (ACEs or "adverse childhood experiences", we may carry unprocessed shame that interferes with our self-esteem.

Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we view self-esteem not just as "feeling good" about yourself, but as the quiet confidence that comes from living in alignment with your true values. We understand that self-worth can often be eroded by harsh self-criticism, societal pressures, or the weight of trying to meet conflicting cultural expectations. Our approach helps you dismantle the "inner critic" and replace it with a foundation of self-compassion. Together we work to identify the core beliefs that keep you feeling "not enough," helping you bridge the gap between who you are and who you feel you should be. Our goal is to help you cultivate a resilient sense of self that remains steady, even when external circumstances change.

Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We all have an inner critic. For many of us, our inner critic is very harsh and wreaks havoc on our self-esteem. Whether it comes in the form of Judge, Controller, Perfectionist or Gremlin, these loud inner critics are brutal. But, and perhaps this is counterintuitive, they are also trying to keep us safe by preempting and therefore avoiding the disapproval of others. We can update our interior landscape so our inner monologue can become softer, kinder and quieter. And now through kindness and compassion, encourage us to be the best we can be.

Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
Do you suffer from anxiety or depression? Do you often feel awkward and self-conscious in social settings? Are you constantly comparing yourself to others and finding you never measure up?
Self-esteem is a concept that speaks to how we feel about ourselves. When one has high self-esteem, they feel confident, centered, and worthy of love. People with low self-esteem often feel shame and self-doubt. They often feel critical of themselves and are unworthy of love or praise.
Having a knowledgeable and supportive therapist in your corner can help you develop a healthier and more realistic sense of self. He or she will help you connect the dots in your life, discover where your low self-esteem came from, and provide tools so you can absolve your negative beliefs and critical self-talk and replace them with self-love and self-compassion.
If you suffer from low self-esteem and would like to explore treatment options, please reach out to me.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Self-esteem isn’t just about confidence—it’s about how you see yourself at your core. If you grew up in an environment where love felt conditional, criticism was constant, or your emotions weren’t valued, you may have learned to question your worth. Maybe you tell yourself you’re not good enough, push yourself to exhaustion to prove your value, or shrink in relationships to avoid rejection. Deep down, you might struggle with shame—the belief that something is fundamentally wrong with you. Even when you achieve success or receive love, it can feel like an accident, as if people will see the “real you” and realize you’re not enough. This isn’t just insecurity—it’s the result of old emotional wounds that need healing.
Post-Induction Therapy (PIT) helps break the cycle of shame and rebuild self-worth from the inside out. Developed by Pia Mellody, PIT addresses the deep emotional wounds from childhood that shape how you see yourself today. In therapy, we work to identify and heal the toxic messages you internalized, so you can stop defining yourself by past experiences and start believing in your inherent worth. You don’t have to keep proving yourself, people-pleasing, or battling the fear that you’re not enough. Therapy helps you release shame, reclaim your self-esteem, and finally feel comfortable in your own skin—not because you’ve earned it, but because you’ve always been worthy.

Dr. Hina Siddiqui; Insights Psychology
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP, LP
Low self-esteem can quietly shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and the choices you make. I work with individuals who struggle with self-doubt, negative self-talk, people-pleasing, and feeling “not good enough,” often despite being capable and accomplished. Therapy focuses on understanding where these patterns developed, challenging unhelpful beliefs, and building a more compassionate and realistic self-view. Through practical, evidence-based strategies, clients learn to strengthen confidence, set healthier boundaries, and develop a sense of self-worth that is stable, authentic, and not dependent on external validation.
