Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC
As a therapist specializing in self-esteem building, I help clients reconnect with their inherent worth and challenge the inner critic that distorts their self-image. Low self-esteem often stems from early experiences, societal pressures, or chronic self-doubt—and I guide individuals in rewriting those narratives through compassion, cognitive restructuring, and strengths-based reflection. My approach encourages clients to recognize their value beyond achievements or external validation, fostering a more resilient and authentic sense of self. Confidence isn’t about being perfect—it’s about embracing who you are, flaws and all.

Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Self-esteem issues frequently coincide with other conditions such as depression, anxiety, or OCD. My work with clients frequently involves helping them to recognize their strengths and to acknowledge their weaknesses with compassion. One of my favorite parts of therapy happens when I notice my clients talking about themselves in a kinder, more compassionate way.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Self-esteem is not something you build by telling yourself better things in the mirror. That is cosmetics. Real self-worth is structural — it comes from having been received by someone who could actually see you, and from learning, over time, to hold yourself with that same steadiness. When that early receiving didn't happen, or happened only conditionally, a person learns to earn their right to exist through performance, through usefulness, through disappearing their own needs. Therapy is not about learning to think more positively. It is about discovering that the part of you that was never good enough was answering a question someone else asked — and that you are allowed to stop answering it.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin

The world focuses on our self-worth coming from our accomplishments or appearance. This leads to individuals often feeling discontent. We are all created to be a unique individual who possesses their own personality, strengths, weaknesses and talents. Together, we can help you to discover who you are as a person so you can be who you are meant to be and find your sense of purpose in life.

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.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
How do we come into confidence? One of the first questions I ask my clients is "what does confidence mean to you?" It never ceases to amaze me that each of us has a slightly different definition. What if your definition really doesn't have much to do with it at all? Everything I have learned as a certified professional Holistic Life Coach turned my own definition on it's head. I invite you to share with me what self esteem and confidence mean to you so that we can start to explore how you see yourself and your relation to others. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement the therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I have a toolkit of fun methods and approaches to self esteem designed to help you question your own assumptions, internal unconscious agreements, and unacknowledged (perhaps limiting) beliefs to get to a place of awareness and insight—the place where confidence truly lives.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Systems of oppression impact self-esteem by perpetuating discrimination, marginalization, and negative stereotypes that devalue us based on race, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status or other identities. These oppressive systems can lead to internalized negative beliefs, chronic stress and diminished self-worth as we constantly face societal messages that undermine their value and abilities. This ongoing marginalization and exclusion contribute to feelings of inferiority, powerlessness and self-doubt, significantly harming self-esteem and overall mental health. My approach to therapy actively works to reduce sexism, racism, classism, ableism, weightism and other exclusionary classes by helping you understand how you have been impacted by these systems and deconstructing the beliefs youhold that perpetuate these exclusionary institutions.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who appear capable and put together but carry a quiet, persistent sense of not being enough. This can look like self‑criticism, difficulty trusting your own judgment, comparing yourself to others, downplaying your own needs or accomplishments, or feeling like you are always falling short of who you are supposed to be. Many of the adults I see have spent years meeting expectations, supporting others, or performing well in work or school while privately feeling inadequate, invisible, or unsure of their worth.
Low self‑esteem often develops in environments where your needs were minimized, where you were praised for being responsible or easy, or where you learned to stay small to avoid conflict or disappointment. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself, how you move through relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want.
In our work together, we explore the origins of these beliefs and how they show up in your body, emotions, and daily life. We look at the roles you have carried, the expectations you have internalized, and the parts of you that are tired of feeling not enough. The goal is not to create artificial confidence but to help you develop a more grounded, accurate sense of yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice. Supporting people who have learned to minimize themselves or feel “not enough” is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve worked to hold things together.
