In my sessions focusing on improving self-esteem, I often employ elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative self-beliefs, replacing them with more realistic and positive thoughts about themselves. Additionally, I integrate aspects of Person-Centered Therapy to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel valued and understood, fostering a sense of acceptance and self-worth. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I assist clients in cultivating mindfulness skills and accepting their thoughts and feelings, empowering them to take meaningful actions aligned with their values and build a more confident sense of self.

Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we view self-esteem not just as "feeling good" about yourself, but as the quiet confidence that comes from living in alignment with your true values. We understand that self-worth can often be eroded by harsh self-criticism, societal pressures, or the weight of trying to meet conflicting cultural expectations. Our approach helps you dismantle the "inner critic" and replace it with a foundation of self-compassion. Together we work to identify the core beliefs that keep you feeling "not enough," helping you bridge the gap between who you are and who you feel you should be. Our goal is to help you cultivate a resilient sense of self that remains steady, even when external circumstances change.

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.

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.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients build their self-esteem and repair their self view - something that has likely been destroyed by society and feedback from others about their value and worth. Unfortunately, we live in a culture that does not value people equally. Even highly successful individuals can have a vulnerable self-view that gets activated with setbacks, mistakes, or rejection. If you've found your self-esteem plummeting from time to time, it might be worth investigating what's going on at a deeper level.

If you're ready to make yourself a priority, reach out by phone or message. You deserve support.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many people struggle with self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or feelings of not being "good enough," whether in school, at work, in relationships, or other areas of life. These experiences can make it difficult to recognize your strengths, trust yourself, and pursue the life you want.
In therapy, we'll work together to better understand the beliefs and experiences that have shaped your self-esteem and identify the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, we'll challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build self-compassion, and develop practical strategies to help you feel more confident, resilient, and authentic in your daily life.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
If your self-esteem feels like it is too low or it yo-yos based on what people say or do around you, then increasing self-compassion and self-love can be really valuable in building self-esteem and confidence for the long-term. Having a healthy self-esteem is important, a more fulfilling and fun way to live, and helpful in drawing in the types of relationships that we long for. Demonstrating having a healthy self-esteem is also a beautiful thing to model when we long for that in our kids too.

Too often we treat ourselves as our own worst enemy. This is not fair and often learned. You can learn to change your self-talk, see yourself in your best light and open up possibilities that may be been difficult to see in the past.

Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
Self-esteem or self-respect is the most important thing we need to make sure we have, as a family member of as an addict in recovery. An addict who is still using the addictive behaviour will not feel very much self-esteem until recovery starts.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
Low self-esteem can feel like a constant inner critic telling you you’re not enough. Over time, this can impact relationships, work, and how you see yourself. In therapy, I help you quiet that critical voice, build self-compassion, and connect with your strengths so you can feel more confident and grounded in who you are. Together, we’ll work on creating a healthier, kinder relationship with yourself.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Self-esteem struggles can be painful to live with, but they often carry important information about how you’ve learned to see yourself in relationships and the world. In our work together, we focus on building a steadier sense of internal safety while also exploring what your self-doubt may be responding to—especially in relation to early experiences, major life transitions, or recurring patterns in close relationships. Approached with curiosity and care, difficulties with self-esteem can become a pathway toward greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and a more grounded sense of worth.
