Saralee Kramer Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self esteem is a term often tossed around, but what does it mean? It's learning to take excellent care of ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually so we can share with our friends and family from our overflow, instead of being selfish and needy. It's the job of adults to take care of ourselves first, so we can take care of others. Sometimes people were raised in families that were very stressed and their was trauma that got in the way of this learning. That's ok. I can help. Learning how to take care of your adult self isn't that difficult and doesn't take much time. Then you just practice and grow.

Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
Maybe you don't feel very confident, aren't very nice to yourself or you just don't take very good care of yourself. I will do a comprehensive assessment process to really get to know all of the relevant information and then will design a plan with your input to look at how you can change your self-talk for the better as well as how you can set and maintain better boundaries, enabling you to feel good about yourself in a way that doesn't rely on external validation.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Amazing topic! Our approach is self actualization driven as an amalgam of student directed pedagogies, neurodevelopmental applications or care, attachment/belonging circuit work, polyvagal based, parts work based, intersectional/contextual based...It's an in-house recipe for how we arrive at this, the science is generally working from context/orientation> existential> attachment based>trauma work>situational and relational and adding integrative, functional or bio/neurofeedback care (sometimes administered by others) along the way. With a CPTSD focus, it's about building inner harmony with the parts or different layers of the psyche. We may also honor and work from eastern meditation principles, nature and support for the intuitive.

Lisa Abdilova Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What if you saw yourself the way others saw you? Imagine if you could finally feel like you're good enough, doing enough, loved enough. What if you talked to others the way you talked to yourself? How come your inner critic is giving you such a hard time?
Improving the relationship you have with yourself is where therapy often starts.
Let's make sense of the recurring themes in your negative self-talk. You'll practice re-evaluating what your mind's telling you to make sure it's accurate, representative, and helpful for you through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Where did these self-defeating messages come from? How can we reframe them to be more encouraging and reassuring so they stop holding you back?
You'll learn your preferences, your triggers, and how to assert boundaries through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). You'll identify your values and start noticing when people push you to act in ways that contradict what's most important to you through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
This is all figure-out-able.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Much of my work revolves around self esteem and the shame that often underlies it. My take on self esteem is developing a sense of confidence in yourself that is neither increased by praise from others nor decreased by criticism from others. This might sound like a distant possibility, but with the approach I take it is actually much closer than you might expect and can start immediately.

Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
I help clients struggling with self-esteem issues by identifying and challenging negative beliefs about themselves. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work together to address the underlying thoughts that contribute to low self-worth and replace them with healthier, more empowering perspectives. My approach also focuses on building self-compassion and developing the skills necessary to create positive changes in how clients see and value themselves. With these tools, clients gain confidence and a stronger sense of self.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever wondered why you feel like you’re not enough—no matter how hard you try? You accomplish, serve, achieve, and still sense a quiet ache of inadequacy underneath it all. That voice of comparison or guilt keeps whispering, “You should be doing better.”
At Rising Calm Center, we help you understand that voice for what it is—not truth, but a wound. Our Christian counselors walk with you to heal the root causes of shame, perfectionism, and fear, so confidence can grow from the inside out.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We blend biblical identity work with evidence-based therapies—CBT, ACT, IFS, and somatic calming tools—to help you:
• Silence the inner critic and build self-compassion
• Recognize and rewrite the false stories that fuel insecurity
• Strengthen your sense of worth through God’s truth, not performance
• Cultivate boundaries, resilience, and courage in relationships
• Live with calm assurance instead of constant proving
You were never meant to earn your value—it was given. When you begin to see yourself as God does—chosen, capable, and loved—peace replaces striving, and confidence becomes quiet strength.
If you’re ready to rise above self-doubt and walk in steady assurance, we’re here to help you rediscover your God-given worth.
Hope and healing can begin today—call or email for your FREE CONSULTATION.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with self-esteem, I focus first on understanding where disconnection may have taken root—often through early experiences that impacted a person’s sense of worth or belonging. I see low self-esteem not as a personal flaw, but as a sign of deeper ruptures in the relationship to self. Together, we work to rebuild that connection through somatic awareness, parts work, and reflection, while also exploring what it means to treat yourself with care and compassion. Building self-esteem can be both an internal process of reconnection and an external practice—engaging in meaningful action, exploring purpose, and choosing to show up for yourself in new ways.
