Self Esteem
Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults who struggle with low self-esteem, including persistent self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, and a tendency to hold back in relationships or opportunities. Difficulties with self-esteem often develop over time in response to early experiences, expectations, and the roles people have learned to occupy.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how these inner patterns are organised and what they may be protecting. Rather than trying to build confidence directly, the focus is on exploring how different parts relate to one another and how beliefs about self-worth have formed. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Erin Kennedy
Therapist, LPCC
Are you your own biggest critic? Do you hold yourself to impossible standards & beat yourself up when you don't meet them? Do you talk to yourself in ways you'd never speak to someone you love? As a recovering perfectionist, I know how painful & lonely it is to never feel good enough. I use methods such as inner child work to help you develop self-compassion and improve your overall relationship with yourself.

I offer strength-based counseling to explore what is uniquely special in you. If you are distracted or frustrated trying to fit into someone else's ideas about what you should be, I can support you to find satisfaction within yourself.

I can support you to celebrate being a beautiful work-in-progress.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Low self-esteem often begins in environments where your needs, emotions, or identity were dismissed or criticized. Rather than simply boosting your confidence, we explore the roots of self-doubt and gently repair the internal narratives shaped by past experiences. The goal is not perfection, it is self-trust, self-compassion, and a grounded sense of worth.

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.

Self Esteem
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.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Struggles with self-esteem often develop from early experiences that shaped how you see yourself and what you believe you deserve. Together we explore the origins of self-criticism, perfectionism, and negative core beliefs. Using trauma-informed and somatic approaches, we work to quiet the inner critic and build a more grounded, stable sense of self-worth that is not dependent on constant achievement or approval.

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.

Jennifer Canu

Everyone is unique and worthy as a human being. Unfortunately it can be hard to experience self-worth for a kaleidoscope of reasons, which are often layered. Using an integrated approach that includes parts work (IFS) and EMDR therapy I will help you understand and explore these reasons and underlying needs, meet needs of various parts and increase access to self-esteem.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Self-Esteem issues can affect a wide range of ages, most commonly, from teenagers to young adults. It is surprisingly a common problem among many women. I work with Feminisms' perspectives, especially when I work with females in my treatment. I take the empowerment of female clients in treatment seriously as it is a critical component of becoming a self-agent to protect and further develop self as well as how we feel about ourselves.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
