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.

Kristy Harrington

Treating ourselves harshly can feel so normal and automatic. And it can also be such a barrier to a satisfying life. I can teach you how to be kinder to yourself and to lift the common barriers that low self-esteem often creates.

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.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Self Esteem refers to how we feel about ourself. Rational emotive behavior therapy and cognitive behavior therapy help individuals recognize the connection between their low self and how their negative beliefs and self talk impact the way they feel about themselves. Once you understand the thought-feeling connection, you will learn a variety of ways to change the way you think, feel and act. You will learn to challenge and replace unheatlhy thoughts and beliefs with more desirable one and guided into taking positive steps in your life. Ultimately, you will learn to accept yourself unconditionally with all your strengths AND weaknesess.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
Low self-esteem rarely comes out of the blue. It's usually the result of internalized messages, past experiences, and parts of ourselves that learned to be critical as a way of coping. I help clients untangle where these beliefs came from and build a more compassionate relationship with themselves.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Everyone struggles with self-esteem at times. It’s easy to compare yourself to others or feel like you’re not measuring up—especially in a world that constantly sets unrealistic expectations. These feelings don’t mean something is wrong with you; they’re part of being human. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand where these beliefs come from and begin to build a more balanced, compassionate view of yourself. Over time, you can learn to feel more confident, capable, and at peace with who you are.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Grief can deeply affect self-esteem, especially when a griever begins questioning who they were to the person who died. Many people blame themselves after a death and wonder if they loved enough, visited enough, said enough, noticed enough, or should have done something differently. Caregivers may carry an even heavier burden, believing they should have been able to save the person they loved.
I support adults through the guilt, regret, self-blame, and painful questions that can follow a loss. I acknowledge these thoughts and feelings by explaining that they make sense, that many grievers experience them, and that they are not proof of failure or a lack of love. I also provide plain-language grief education and practical tools to help clients manage these thoughts when they are triggered, so they can respond to themselves with more understanding instead of self-punishment.

The Becoming Therapy Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT
So many women have spent years shrinking, over-apologizing, and measuring their worth by how well they serve others. We work with women who are ready to reconnect with their own value — not as a mother, a partner, or a caregiver, but as a person. Therapy can help you untangle where those messages came from, quiet the inner critic, and begin showing up with the confidence and self-trust you deserve. You are allowed to take up space.
