Self Esteem
Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Shame and fluctuating self-esteem can often stem from recurrent emotional traumas sustained across development, and in a range of contexts. I will work with you to identity how shame shows up in your life, and contributes to intense and persistently held beliefs about yourself, others, and the world around you. Working at a pace that feels manageable to you, we will explore the root cause(s) of shame in the present, and how to change the way you "speak" to yourself internally.

Self Esteem
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 It does not always show up as someone who seems visibly insecure or withdrawn.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.

Brielle Layden
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self esteem is ever changing as it is always influenced by our external experiences (ie: a new job) as well as our internal experience (ie: negative or positive self talk). I will work with you to develop a healthier self image while working through past experiences that have, or continue to wound your confidence.

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.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Low self-esteem rarely comes from nowhere — it's usually the accumulated weight of experiences that taught you that you were too much, not enough, or fundamentally flawed in some way. Those messages get stored in the body and in our inner world, shaping how we move through relationships, work, and our own minds. I help clients reconnect with a grounded, stable sense of self worth that doesn't depend on external validation — through EMDR to reprocess the experiences that shaped those beliefs, and IFS to build a kinder, more honest relationship with yourself.

Kourtney Bennett

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.

Yaffa Dyckman
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.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Do you struggle to see your own worth? Maybe you’re constantly comparing yourself to others, feeling not good enough, or doubting whether people truly value you. Over time, these thoughts take a toll, making it hard to trust yourself or feel confident in who you are. I enjoy helping my clients quiet the self-doubt, let go of harsh inner criticism, and build a sense of self-worth that feels solid and real. You don’t have to keep questioning your value, you deserve to believe in it.

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.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
If your self-esteem depends on the number of achievements you have accomplished so far in your life, how many 'exceeds expectations' you have on your performance reviews, or how many likes you get on an IG post, your self-esteem is being fueled by external factors instead of internal ones. If you're ready to put in the work and figure out how to create a more positive view of yourself, reach out and I'll show you how.
