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.

Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
Pervasive poor self-esteem can result in anxiety and depression. How often do you stop yourself from speaking your mind, due to fear of embarrassment or being wrong?
These small self-confidence "blips" can add up, and compound your low sense of self-worth.

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.

Abelee Groff
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.

Tin Huang
Pre-Licensed Professional, PsyD
My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, creating a safe space where you can openly explore self-doubt and negative self-talk without fear. I have extensive experience helping individuals cultivate a stronger, more authentic sense of self-worth and overcome the challenges of low self-esteem. Together, we'll identify the roots of your self-esteem struggles, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and build practical strategies to foster genuine self-acceptance and confidence. I also recognize that cultural messages, societal pressures, and systemic factors often play a significant role in shaping our self-perception. Through this informed and supportive partnership, I empower clients to embrace their true value, set healthy boundaries, and live a life aligned with their authentic self.

Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!

Laura Silva, LicMHC - Online/Virtual Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, Traditional, Integrative, Heart Centered counseling. Coach, Educator, Depth Therapy.
There is difference between Self Esteem and Self-Worth, though often used interchangeably. Building positive self esteem is how we evaluate ourselves. It is our internal assessment of our qualities and attributes. We have healthy self esteem when what we think, feel and believe about ourselves is honest and realistic. Unhealthy self esteem can lead to the trap of Narcissism. Low self-esteem is underestimating or ignoring your positive characteristics. Do you tell yourself that you are stupid, lazy, boring, selfish, or generally a bad person because of the things you think, say or do? Through various modalities and new learning, I will help you build skills of positive self-esteem and especially realize your intrinsic value, goodness and capabilities i.e. your Self-Worth. Email for free consultation call.

Tina Nickels
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
If you have low self-esteem, it may be because you were given negative messages by someone, or by society. Whatever the source of those negative messages, you need to know that those negative messages are not true. There are steps we can take to improve your self-esteem. I understand the feeling of wanting to blend into the wallpaper and I have proof you do not have to live with low self-esteem.

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.

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.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many of my clients struggle with low self-esteem or a deep sense of “not good enough” at their core. I help people shift from seeing their "hole" self to embracing their "whole" self through a strength-based approach that honors their inherent worth. Together, we’ll explore old narratives—often rooted in early life experiences—that may no longer serve you, and work to rewrite them so you can cultivate greater confidence, self-compassion, and a renewed sense of self-worth.

J. Rosalyn Diehl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
Self-esteem influences how you see yourself, relate to others, and navigate life's challenges. When self-worth is low, you may struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or constantly seeking validation from others. I help women build confidence, develop a healthier relationship with themselves, and create lasting changes that support greater self-worth, resilience, and emotional well-being.

How we feel about ourselves is influenced by messages from others, but ultimately, what matters most is how we think and feel about ourselves. It's possible to feel good about yourself.
