Self Esteem
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Low self esteem and a poor self image, which can get to a point for some people of self-hatred, erodes your life. In spite of achievements, you never feel good enough, and can't feel truly at peace. Because poor self esteem is often a lifelong problem, it can be very hard to resolve on your own. It is often related to trauma in childhood. When I work with clients who struggle with low self esteem, I want to understand how they came to the belief that they are generally not good enough. We also will look at how habits of thought, feeling, behavior, and self care may be reinforcing a negative self image, and work on making changes so a positive self image can be reinforced instead.

Self Esteem
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.

Self Esteem
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.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
When it comes to enhancing self-esteem, hypnotherapy helps by reaching the subconscious mind, where many of our deepest beliefs and perceptions about ourselves are stored. During a hypnotherapy session, clients are guided into a state of deep relaxation, making the subconscious more receptive to positive suggestions and affirmations. Hypnotherapy can also help uncover the root causes of low self-esteem and work through them, empowering individuals to build a healthier and more positive self-image, paving the way for greater personal and professional fulfillment. Its holistic approach ensures that the benefits extend beyond mere symptom relief, fostering long-term growth and resilience.

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.

In therapy, we’ll explore the experiences and beliefs that shaped how you see yourself and begin to build a healthier, more confident inner foundation. Through insight, self-compassion, and mindfulness, you can learn to replace self-criticism with acceptance and courage—helping you feel more comfortable in your own skin and empowered in your choices.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You can be accomplished, capable, and caring—and still quietly struggle with feeling like you're not enough. Self-esteem challenges don’t always shout; sometimes, they whisper through perfectionism, people-pleasing, overachievement, or the sense that you’re constantly falling short. Many of my clients wrestle with imposter syndrome—feeling like a fraud despite clear evidence of their success. It doesn’t have to stay that way. If your inner critic has been running the show, therapy can help you reconnect with a more realistic, compassionate view of yourself.
At The Momentum Practice, I work with high-achieving professionals and emerging adults who are ready to understand where these patterns began and how to shift them. Together, we’ll explore how early life dynamics—like high expectations, emotional invalidation, or being praised only for achievement—may still shape how you see yourself. We'll also examine how systems of oppression and societal messages around race, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, productivity, and other aspects of identity can erode your sense of worth, even when you’ve done everything ‘right’ to succeed despite them.
This is a space where all parts of you are welcome. We’ll work to quiet the self-doubt, build insight, and strengthen your self-trust—so that confidence isn’t just something you perform, but something you actually feel. With over 15 years of experience, I offer a collaborative, affirming space to help you rewrite your internal narrative from self-criticism to self-respect. If you're ready to feel more at home in your own mind, I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Low self-esteem rarely announces itself directly — it shows up in the relationships you settle for, the opportunities you talk yourself out of, the relentless inner critic that measures everything you do and finds it lacking. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults identify and challenge the deep-rooted beliefs driving low self-worth, self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chronic self-criticism. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I work with clients to build genuine, lasting self-confidence, self-compassion, and a stronger, more secure sense of identity. Telehealth therapy for self-esteem available across 40+ states.

Augustin Kendall
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
In an ideal environment, we develop self-esteem starting at a young age and over the course of our lives. However, many of us did not have support from adults in learning how to value ourselves. We may have internalized critical voices from our past or have gone through painful experiences that left us feeling unwanted or unworthy. I provide support in helping you explore who you are in a deep way, find out what you like about yourself, and process past experiences or relationships that damaged your self-worth.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Self-esteem isn’t just about confidence—it’s about how you see yourself at your core. If you grew up in an environment where love felt conditional, criticism was constant, or your emotions weren’t valued, you may have learned to question your worth. Maybe you tell yourself you’re not good enough, push yourself to exhaustion to prove your value, or shrink in relationships to avoid rejection. Deep down, you might struggle with shame—the belief that something is fundamentally wrong with you. Even when you achieve success or receive love, it can feel like an accident, as if people will see the “real you” and realize you’re not enough. This isn’t just insecurity—it’s the result of old emotional wounds that need healing.
Post-Induction Therapy (PIT) helps break the cycle of shame and rebuild self-worth from the inside out. Developed by Pia Mellody, PIT addresses the deep emotional wounds from childhood that shape how you see yourself today. In therapy, we work to identify and heal the toxic messages you internalized, so you can stop defining yourself by past experiences and start believing in your inherent worth. You don’t have to keep proving yourself, people-pleasing, or battling the fear that you’re not enough. Therapy helps you release shame, reclaim your self-esteem, and finally feel comfortable in your own skin—not because you’ve earned it, but because you’ve always been worthy.

Building Self-Esteem: From Surviving to Thriving
Self-esteem is the foundation of mental health. It influences how we handle stress, how we interact in relationships, and how we pursue our dreams. Our Master’s level, clinically licensed therapists specialize in helping both adults and youth (ages 10+) dismantle the "inner critic" and build a resilient sense of self.
How We Help You Rebuild Worth
We use evidence-based tools to help you or your child move past shame and self-doubt:
Identifying the Root: Through a full clinical assessment, we look at where self-esteem was wounded—whether through trauma, high-conflict family systems, or societal pressure.
Specialized Modalities: We utilize CBT to challenge negative thought patterns, IFS (Internal Family Systems) to understand the "parts" of you that feel "not enough," and Brainspotting to process the deep-seated emotions tied to your identity.
Youth-Focused Engagement: For clients ages 10+, we use specialized interactive software that helps young people explore their identity and strengths in a medium that feels comfortable and engaging.
Our Collaborative Process
Rebuilding self-esteem is a partnership. We don’t just tell you that you are worthy; we help you feel it.
Current Needs Assessment: We determine how low self-esteem is currently impacting your life (e.g., social anxiety, codependency, or lack of motivation).
Goal Setting: We define what "confidence" looks like for you specifically—is it setting a boundary at work? Making a new friend? Trying a new hobby?
Treatment Planning: Together, we discuss the clinical plan to reach those goals, ensuring the pace feels safe and supportive.
The Role of Support & Accessibility
We believe that seeking help for self-worth shouldn't be a source of stress.
The Right Fit: Use our free consultation to meet your therapist and ensure you feel safe and understood.
Convenience: With online therapy and 7-day-a-week scheduling, you can prioritize your growth on your own terms.
Insurance: We accept all Minnesota insurance groups, making high-level clinical care accessible to all.

Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have worked throughout my career to help individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) identify who and/or what contributes to their low sense of self. I help them to identify strengths, and focus on what is in that person's control in an effort to take the power away from what has historically contributed to their self-perception.
