Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
One of my favorite things as a therapist is to see the strengths in others and help them see it within themselves. It's a true honor to be a part of someone's process to help them feel empowered. Working on self-esteem in therapy involves identifying and challenging deep-seated negative beliefs and cognitive distortions. Therapy also helps clients cultivate self-compassion, recognize personal strengths, and break cycles of self-criticism. Therapy for self-esteem aims to change the internal dialogue, build emotional resilience, and foster a healthier, stable, resilient, realistic, and positive self-view.

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.

Vanessa Ffrench
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (140713), Certified Yoga & Meditation Instructor
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.

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.

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.

Through evidence-based strategies and Christ-centered guidance, you’ll learn to embrace your inherent worth, develop self-compassion, and step into life with confidence, clarity, and emotional resilience.

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.

Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
We all have a negative belief of self that connects to our experiences in the past affecting how we function in the present. Understanding what is under the surface of these dysfunctional thoughts can help us overcome the negative beliefs that can make it difficult to thrive. My hope is to help people improve their self worth and feel empowered to thrive in any situation.

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.

Victoria Miller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
With low self-esteem you may often feel shame and self-doubt. Here are some warning signs that may indicate that it's time to seek help in the form of talk therapy:
- You frequently feel overwhelmed, angry, ignored and/or taken advantage of in relationships
- You experience frequent and sudden mood swings
- You frequently have difficulty beginning, completing and/or accomplishing tasks (at work, school, personal or otherwise)
- You frequently feel alone and at a loss as to how to help yourself
- You're constantly trying to “fix,” “do” or “say” the right thing to get people to like you, or agree with you
By using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) I can help you: 1) Identify and understand the source(s) of low self-esteem, 2) Process past negative experiences in a safe, nurturing space, 3) Learn to recognize critical voices that are not your own, 4) Notice “all or nothing” thinking patterns. I can help you learn to use your voice effectively, help you identify what you want and need, recognize unhealthy thought patterns, and make small changes in your day to day life that will add up to big changes in your overall happiness and contentment in life.
