Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Low self-esteem is often tied to long-standing self-criticism, shame, or a sense of not measuring up. We can look at where those beliefs took root and how they keep showing up today. The work is about building a more balanced view of yourself, strengthening self-trust, and creating patterns that support confidence and self-respect.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Struggling with self-esteem can feel like carrying around a quiet but persistent voice that tells you you’re not good enough, no matter how much you accomplish or how hard you try. It might show up as self-doubt in relationships, difficulty asserting your needs, or constantly comparing yourself to others. Maybe you find yourself replaying past mistakes or feeling like you have to prove your worth to those around you. Over time, these patterns can take a toll on your confidence and hold you back from fully embracing your life.
Building self-esteem isn’t about striving for perfection—it’s about changing the way you see yourself, learning to challenge self-criticism, and developing a more compassionate, confident inner voice. Together, we’ll work to uncover the beliefs that have shaped your self-perception, recognize the strengths that already exist within you, and help you move toward a sense of self-worth that isn’t dependent on external validation. You deserve to feel comfortable in your own skin, trust in your abilities, and advocate for yourself with confidence.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many clients struggle with a pervasive feeling of not being good enough, which makes it challenging for them to live life authentically and form meaningful and vulnerable connections with others. My primary task as a therapist is to create an environment in which clients can feel empowered to show up as their whole selves, without fear of judgment and rejection.

Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Of all the relationships we shall share throughout our lives our relationship with out true selves is the foundation and root from which all the others grow. My passion is to help you find a strong loving honest relationship with your true self and all it's parts that allows you to build, connect and thrive in all of your external relationships. This is an inside out, bottom up process of integration that introduces you to all that you are and all that you were meant to be, making peace with shadow parts as well as allowing powerful parts of you that never got to come forward. It is a messy, wonderful, and life changing journey to find our way back to ourselves.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Struggling with low self-esteem can feel like living with an internal critic that never shuts down, constantly telling you that you aren’t smart, capable, or worthy enough. I help individuals break free from this painful cycle of self-doubt and people-pleasing so they can build genuine, lasting self-worth. In our work, we utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS) to compassionately understand the protective parts of you that carry deep feelings of inadequacy, while Narrative Therapy helps you rewrite the old, limiting stories you’ve been told about your value. Alongside this deeper exploration, I weave in practical CBT and DBT tools to help you quiet negative self-talk, set firm boundaries, and practice daily self-compassion. Together, we will work to shift your relationship with yourself from chronic self-criticism to a steady, quiet confidence in who you truly are.

Hannah Warshowsky
Psychologist, PhD
I talk about self-criticism, often how we express self-esteem, with all of my clients. Every. Single. One. We call ourselves things we would never call anyone else “disgusting, lazy, unworthy, embarrassing, ugly, stupid. The list goes on and on. Instead of metaphorically beating yourself up for beating yourself up (because that defeats the purpose right?) try some of these tips. ✔️
Try talking to yourself how you would talk to a best friend, small child, or a lovable pet. You can still challenge yourself but say it in a gentle way. “I know you are really tired but you are gonna feel better if you get up and make some breakfast.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Self-esteem is complicated, and we should talk to see if my training is the right approach for you. But when people feel unsafe or anxious within their own bodies, it can be pretty easy to start looking at yourself with wariness, judgment, or shame.
Somatic Experiencing in this case seeks to help you feel safer in your body, to handle any old feelings of danger so you can feel more vital and alive. Dare I say, we can even take small steps towards enjoying the feeling of life.
Once there is enjoyment, and awareness of that enjoyment, self-esteem starts looking much less fixed.

Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Low self-esteem doesn’t always look like insecurity—it can show up as chronic self-doubt, imposter syndrome, perfectionism, or the quiet belief that you’re never quite “enough.” Whether you're navigating a personal transition, professional pressure, or long-standing patterns of self-criticism, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you rebuild a more grounded and compassionate sense of self.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to address the core beliefs and behavioral patterns that sustain low self-worth. We’ll explore how early experiences, internalized narratives, and current stressors shape your self-concept—and develop practical tools to challenge distortions, clarify values, and build authentic confidence. For clients managing high-functioning anxiety or perfectionism, I also offer targeted psychoeducation and values-based decision support.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly struggling behind a polished exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that honors your history and equips you for growth.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
If your self-esteem depends on the number of achievements you have accomplished so far in your life, how many 'exceeds expectations' you have on your performance reviews, or how many likes you get on an IG post, your self-esteem is being fueled by external factors instead of internal ones. If you're ready to put in the work and figure out how to create a more positive view of yourself, reach out and I'll show you how.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Self-esteem shapes how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how confidently we move through life. When self-esteem is low, people often struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, fear of judgment, or feeling “not enough,” even when they are capable and accomplished. These patterns are often learned over time and reinforced at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with self-esteem is personalized and respectful. Rather than focusing solely on positive thinking, hypnosis helps address the underlying beliefs and emotional responses that influence how individuals perceive themselves. Sessions are tailored to each client’s goals and life experience, supporting the development of healthier self-perception, confidence, and emotional resilience.
Clients often seek hypnosis for self-esteem when long-standing patterns persist despite insight or effort. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that allows clients to remain aware and in control while gently reinforcing more supportive beliefs and behaviors.
This work is offered as a supportive tool for personal growth and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and self-accepting.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
If you spend any time with a preschooler, you notice very quickly they have very few problem with healthy self-esteem or "being themselves!" I believe the erosion of self-esteem is learned through experience (e.g., attachment problems, trauma, neglect, bullying, marginalization, etc.). I utilize approaches like EMDR and ego-state therapies to help heal the experiences that first eroded your inherent feelings of self worth followed by strengthening internal resources to more confidently approach the present and future.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults seeking to build self-esteem, confidence, and self-compassion. I help clients explore internalized self-criticism, negative beliefs, and relational patterns that may undermine their sense of worth, while supporting them in developing a more authentic and empowering relationship with themselves.
I integrate trauma-informed, parts-based, and somatic approaches to help clients recognize strengths, regulate emotions, and cultivate resilience. Therapy emphasizes self-understanding, empowerment, and practical strategies for nurturing confidence and self-trust in everyday life.
