DL, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCTP
I specialize in self-esteem therapy for adults struggling with low self-confidence, chronic self-doubt, perfectionism, and negative self-talk. Many high-functioning individuals experience persistent feelings of inadequacy despite external success. In therapy, I help clients develop self-worth that is not tied to productivity, achievement, or external validation. This work supports increased emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a more secure sense of self. The goal is lasting self-trust and confidence rooted in self-understanding rather than performance.

Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
If you have a difficult family member who communicates with anger, contempt, criticism, blaming, or shaming, it can take a huge toll on your self-esteem - especially if you were emotionally abused in childhood. You may have learned to be hard on yourself in an effort to control your own behavior, hoping to avoid the worse pain of being bullied or hurt by a parent or sibling with mental health or addiction issues. Together, we can begin to invite a new inner voice to develop - one that is unfailingly kind, validating, and supportive. As you begin to treat yourself with the respect and care you always needed, something profound may happen. You may find that you really like the person within you who is always so warm and understanding. This is my definition of self-esteem - coming to genuinely like yourself because you treat yourself so well.

Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
Self-esteem issues is a polite way of talking about shame. Underneath the mean things you say about yourself is shame and fear. I've struggled with this most of my life. The terrible things I used to say about myself always seemed to manifest around me, which kept me trapped. We will work to unwind the web of beliefs you have and find the beauty deep inside.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Difficulties with self-esteem often reflect long-standing patterns of self-criticism, comparison, or internal pressure. I work with individuals to understand how these patterns developed and how they continue to shape daily life. Therapy focuses on building a more stable, realistic, and compassionate sense of self.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
In addressing the complex issue of self-esteem in my practice, I delve deep into the root causes that underpin feelings of low self-worth, focusing on individuals who, due to their empathetic nature, high sensitivity, or autism, experience the world with intense emotional depth. These unique traits, while profound gifts, can also lead to overwhelming self-criticism, anxiety, and shame, often stemming from an acute awareness of others' emotions and judgments. This heightened sensitivity can culminate in challenges such as difficulty setting boundaries, a propensity towards people-pleasing, and perfectionism, all of which can erode self-esteem and contribute to a sense of burnout and disconnection from one's true self.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the understanding that low self-esteem often arises from these deep-seated patterns of thinking and interacting with the world. By exploring the origins of these feelings—whether they're rooted in childhood experiences, societal expectations, or the intrinsic challenges of navigating life with heightened sensitivity—we embark on a journey of healing and transformation. This process is focused on uncovering and addressing the underlying causes of low self-esteem, moving beyond surface-level solutions to foster lasting change.
Together, we work to develop healthier boundaries, reduce self-criticism, and embrace authenticity, empowering individuals to reclaim their self-worth independently of external validation. The goal is to help those I work with to confidently shine their light, building connections that honor their authentic selves, and to discover a sense of self that is free from overwhelm and self-doubt. This depth-oriented, root cause approach to therapy is about nurturing a strong, resilient sense of self-esteem that supports a life of fulfillment, confidence, and genuine connection, celebrating the unique gifts of sensitivity and empathy as sources of strength and connection.

Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
The inner critic is a common obstacle that most people face at some point in their meditation practice. When self-critical thought patterns creep into our mind, we can easily become consumed with feelings of shame that sometimes pushes us towards a relentless striving for self-improvement. As we loosen the grip of self-doubt through the cultivation of self-compassion, the voice of inner wisdom naturally emerges to take its place.

Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Low self-esteem can affect nearly every aspect of emotional wellbeing, including relationships, decision-making, motivation, and the ability to cope with stress or criticism. Many individuals struggling with self-esteem experience chronic self-doubt, shame, perfectionism, people-pleasing, fear of rejection, or a persistent sense of inadequacy despite external success or positive feedback from others.
Therapy can help clients better understand the experiences and patterns that have shaped their sense of self while developing greater self-awareness, self-compassion, emotional resilience, and confidence. My approach focuses not simply on “feeling better” about oneself temporarily, but on building a more stable, authentic, and internally grounded sense of worth and identity.

I have experience working with clients who are suffering with self-esteem issues. I approach these issues with acceptance and self compassion, body-oriented practices and mindfulness, as well as identifying earlier childhood patterns and internalizations that created a poor sense of self and low self esteem. I encourage self-compassion first and foremost with these clients.

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.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach social anxiety through a relational and nervous system lens, recognizing that fear, self-consciousness, and avoidance often develop as protective responses to experiences of feeling unsafe, disconnected, or misunderstood. Therapy focuses on creating a space of relational safety where clients can better understand their responses, build confidence, and gradually develop a greater sense of comfort and connection in relationships and social situations.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
If your self-esteem feels like it is too low or it yo-yos based on what people say or do around you, then increasing self-compassion and self-love can be really valuable in building self-esteem and confidence for the long-term. Having a healthy self-esteem is important, a more fulfilling and fun way to live, and helpful in drawing in the types of relationships that we long for. Demonstrating having a healthy self-esteem is also a beautiful thing to model when we long for that in our kids too.
