Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
Self-esteem and shame deeply influence how you see yourself and connect with others. When these areas are impacted by early experiences or internalized social messages, they can lead to self-doubt, perfectionism, and harsh self-criticism. In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive space to uncover the roots of these patterns and replace them with self-acceptance and confidence.
Together, we’ll explore how past experiences and beliefs have shaped your self-view and learn practical ways to shift them. Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion work, you’ll begin to build a stronger sense of worth and emotional resilience.
My approach is affirming, empathetic, and client-centered. I’ll help you move beyond shame, develop a more balanced self-image, and embrace your authentic self with confidence.

Silvina Falcon - Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW
Are you disappointed with the way you view yourself and the person you have become? Do you frequently tell yourself that you are inadequate or incompetent, particularly when you compare yourself to others? Do you wish you looked different, were smarter, or had accomplished more academically, professionally or socially? Do you feel you have fallen short of the expectations you had for yourself and that others had of you? Do you wish you could carry yourself with more pride and self-respect?
These are signs of self–rejection and low self–esteem. Judging yourself harshly is an enormously painful experience that causes you to distrust yourself and your abilities. The internal dialogue that criticizes you is alive, powerful, and has a profound impact on your mood and the quality of your life.
I believe that evidence-based methods are the key to alleviate symptoms and relieve this emotional pain. The systematic use of cognitive, behavioral, and motivational methods, as well as mindfulness and relapse prevention, can help you manage moments of self - deprecation and begin experience greater freedom and self - acceptance. There are a variety of evidence-based methods that can help you acquire the tools necessary to improve your self–image and develop self–compassion. A life of self-respect and pride is a life worth living; it is actually a very joyful life. I look forward to partner with you in a journey towards better self - esteem and self - respect.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Low self‑esteem often comes from years of criticism, trauma, or feeling like you are “too much” or “not enough.” Together, we notice how this shows up in your body, choices, and relationships, challenge shame‑based beliefs, and practice new, more compassionate ways of relating to yourself.

Erikka Cole
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
Low self-esteem rarely announces itself. It often shows up as people-pleasing, overworking, shrinking, or a persistent voice in your head that tells you you're not quite enough. In therapy, we gently challenge those patterns, explore where they came from, and help you build a more grounded, honest sense of who you are and what you deserve.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self Esteem has numerous ways that it can become a struggle; maybe it’s a lack of confidence, maybe it’s not believing you deserve good things, maybe it’s less noticeable ways that you forget to take care of yourself, and sometimes it’s a doubt that underneath it all, there is a self that exists, let alone deserves esteem. As a psychologist specializing in building deeper connection to one’s self, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to open shame-free spaces and explore who you are and who you want to be. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our sense of self is formed or disrupted by our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

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.

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self-esteem grows from understanding yourself rather than constantly judging yourself. Therapy can help you recognize unhelpful beliefs, develop self-compassion, and build confidence grounded in your values instead of unrealistic expectations or external validation.

Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Low self-esteem does not always look the way people expect. It does not always show up as someone who seems visibly insecure or withdrawn. More often it looks like a high achiever who never feels like enough, someone who constantly seeks validation from others, a person who avoids taking risks because failure feels catastrophic, or a man who has spent years measuring his worth by his productivity, his income, or what other people think of him.
The internal experience is usually some version of the same thing: a persistent sense of not measuring up, difficulty accepting positive feedback, a harsh inner voice that is quick to criticize and slow to acknowledge progress, and a pattern of putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own.
Self-esteem is not something you either have or do not have. It is built through experience, shaped by relationships and environment, and it can be changed with the right kind of focused work. That means examining where those beliefs about yourself came from, challenging the patterns that reinforce them, and building a more accurate and stable sense of who you actually are.
My approach is direct and practical. We identify the specific ways low self-esteem is showing up in your life, address the thinking patterns and behaviors that sustain it, and build real confidence grounded in self-awareness and action rather than approval from others.
If you are tired of being your own harshest critic and ready to approach yourself differently, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Self-esteem, self-confidence, self-worth, these are all a little different. Let's talk about how you can use each one of these to build a more resilient you by catching how you talk to yourself and shift to self-talk that is far more accurate. We are going to learn tools and skills for being far kinder to yourself and begin talking to yourself like you'd expect a friend to speak to you.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
*Free Consultation* Loving ourselves is one of the hardest things to do, but it is also one of the most vital. Everything in life builds upon your relationship with yourself, so it is important to build a strong foundation of self-love and self-confidence from which to grow. Together, we can build awareness around false beliefs you may hold about yourself - "I'm not good enough." "I'm unworthy." "I'm unlovable." - and then we can work to challenge that faulty thinking in order to rewrite a more compassionate and truthful narrative, in which you are able to thrive. I offer a 15 min free consultation, so please reach out to see if we're a good fit!

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Self-esteem often comes from feeling a sense of mastery over certain hurdles in our lives, whether with children, socially, our jobs, school work, etc. I work with clients in helping them understand themselves, and gain enough confidence to approach challenges that they may be afraid to take or worry they'll fail at. I help clients talk about the fear of failing and the fear of making mistakes-- which in life are inevitable to some degree for all of us.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for self-esteem issues, including low self-worth, self-doubt, chronic self-criticism, perfectionism, shame, and difficulty feeling confident or “good enough,” even when supported by others. These struggles can affect relationships, career confidence, decision-making, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.
Brad takes a holistic and compassionate approach to self-esteem counseling, helping clients understand the underlying emotional experiences, past trauma, and relational patterns that often contribute to negative self-beliefs. Many self-esteem challenges are not simply about confidence, but about deeper wounds formed through past experiences, attachment dynamics, criticism, neglect, or emotional invalidation.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process underlying experiences and shift long-standing negative beliefs about themselves. Therapy focuses on reducing shame, increasing self-awareness, and building a more stable and compassionate sense of identity.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to create a personalized path toward healing and growth. Therapy provides a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where individuals can explore their inner experiences, challenge limiting beliefs, and develop healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating.
The goal of therapy is not only to improve confidence, but to support lasting change in how clients view themselves and their place in the world. Through this process, clients can develop greater emotional resilience, authenticity, and self-trust.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond self-doubt and develop a stronger, more grounded, and more secure sense of self-worth and identity.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Positive self esteem can feel so out of reach sometimes. Negative self talk is so painful and common, and yet we can still feel so alone in it. I have seen great results using psychodynamic therapy and EMDR in this work. You can develop a more compassionate inner voice. You can start feeling better about yourself.
