Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
Struggles with self-esteem can show up as persistent self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or difficulty trusting your own abilities. Even people who function well outwardly may quietly question whether they are doing enough or measuring up. In therapy, we work to understand the experiences shaping self-esteem and build a steadier, more balanced sense of confidence.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
When your relationship with yourself is defined by self-doubt, people-pleasing, and a harsh inner critic, it affects every single corner of your life. Anne provides a warm, non-judgmental, and deeply collaborative space to help you dismantle those negative self-narratives and build authentic self-esteem. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to help them break free from the cycle of insecurity, quiet the voice of perfectionism, and rediscover their inherent worth.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely designed to bypass the intellectual defense mechanisms that keep low self-esteem in place. By combining evidence-based psychotherapy with creative art therapy and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), she offers a safe space to explore and externalize old beliefs about your value. Together, you will learn to treat yourself with genuine compassion, establish healthy boundaries, and step into your life with confidence—whether you are navigating a major life transition, professional burnout, a chronic illness diagnosis, or the profound identity shifts of parenthood.

Having a poor self-image and thinking negatively about yourself can tear you down. But knowing your worth in Christ and tackling negative messages can lift you up and give you a renewed sense of self-worth. Dealing with past issue and messages that led to the self-esteem can prove beneficial to the client.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self Esteem has numerous ways that it can become a struggle; maybe it’s a lack of confidence, maybe it’s not believing you deserve good things, maybe it’s less noticeable ways that you forget to take care of yourself, and sometimes it’s a doubt that underneath it all, there is a self that exists, let alone deserves esteem. As a psychologist specializing in building deeper connection to one’s self, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to open shame-free spaces and explore who you are and who you want to be. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our sense of self is formed or disrupted by our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
Struggles with self-esteem often show up as self-doubt, harsh inner criticism, people-pleasing, or feeling “not enough” no matter what you accomplish. From an Adlerian perspective, low self-esteem is closely tied to discouragement and mistaken beliefs about worth, belonging, and significance. In counseling, we work together to identify these patterns, challenge self-defeating thoughts, and build a more compassionate and realistic view of yourself. My goal is to help you develop confidence, strengthen your sense of purpose, and begin living in a way that reflects your true value rather than your fears or past experiences.

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Confidence is an inside job—and it’s something you can learn to build!
I work with individuals who struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, and feeling unsure of their value. Many of these patterns are rooted in long-standing beliefs and experiences that shape how you see yourself and show up in relationships.
In our work together, we focus on identifying and shifting limiting beliefs, strengthening your sense of self, and building practical skills such as assertive communication, healthy boundaries, conflict resolution, and effective coping strategies.
Over time, this process helps you move out of self-doubt and into a more grounded, confident, and self-expressed version of yourself.

Counselor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 40 years
Self-esteem is developed from Unconditional Love, which we did not receive. Instead, all the PMES abandonment lead us to believe being un-loved was our fault. This is self-hate, which erodes our will & serenity. Developing the Loving Parent Voice heals & provides self-confidence. (Blog : 2011)
