I help individuals strengthen self-esteem, self-confidence, and identity. Low self-esteem often develops through relational experiences and internalized beliefs. Therapy focuses on building self-trust, emotional resilience, and a more supportive relationship with yourself.

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.

Bruce Clark
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Struggling with self-esteem can leave you feeling not good enough or feelings of frequent comparison. Maybe you have low self-esteem in general. Maybe you struggle with imposter syndrome. Regardless, these patterns often run deep, shaped by past experiences and internalized messages. In therapy, I help you explore where these beliefs come from, build self-compassion, and reconnect with a more confident, grounded sense of who you are.

Insight Psychological Group
Psychologist, Psy.D.s, LCSWs, LPCs, LCADCs...
At the heart of any action we undertake is the belief that we can accomplish it. When we don't have that belief firmly fixed, we often do not try. This applies not only to big things, like applying for a new job or asking someone out, this also applies to micro-situations: belief that we can organize our closet, belief that we can lose weight, belief that we will survive the car ride, or belief that we matter to the other person. This is all self-esteem. Our therapists can help you understand why it's so hard to believe in yourself.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I support clients who struggle with self-esteem, self-doubt, and a persistent sense of not feeling “enough,” even when life looks stable or successful on the outside. Many of the clients I work with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and capable individuals who have learned to be self-critical in order to succeed, but find that inner voice of criticism difficult to turn off.
Low self-esteem can show up in many ways- difficulty trusting yourself, second-guessing decisions, people-pleasing, comparing yourself to others, or feeling undeserving of rest, success, or healthy relationships. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself and how you move through the world.
In therapy, we work together to understand where these beliefs came from, including past experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and internalized messages about worth and value. Alongside this deeper exploration, we also focus on building practical tools to challenge self-critical thoughts and create new, more balanced ways of relating to yourself.
My goal is to help you develop a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself- one where your worth is not dependent on performance, approval, or productivity, but rooted in a more stable and grounded sense of who you are.

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.

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.

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.
