Kelley Boole
Therapist, LSW
If your inner critic narrates every decision and "not enough" is the soundtrack of your day, therapy can change the volume. Kelley helps you see where the harshness came from (family, trauma, culture, past relationships) and replace it with a steadier, more accurate self-view. Using strength-based work, cognitive restructuring, and ACT-informed values clarification, you'll start treating yourself the way you'd treat someone you love.

Through evidence-based strategies and Christ-centered guidance, you’ll learn to embrace your inherent worth, develop self-compassion, and step into life with confidence, clarity, and emotional resilience.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Low self-esteem rarely announces itself directly. More often it shows up as perfectionism, people-pleasing, the inability to receive a compliment, the constant feeling that you're one mistake away from being found out, or the habit of making yourself smaller so others are more comfortable. I work with clients who have spent years measuring their worth by what they produce, who they please, or how well they perform — and who are ready to build a more stable, internal sense of who they are. This work often intersects with adoption, relationships, and athletic identity, but its roots are always deeply personal.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Shame is a major detriment to self-esteem. Self-esteem is built up in childhood, and if we had abusive or neglectful childhood experiences (ACEs or "adverse childhood experiences", we may carry unprocessed shame that interferes with our self-esteem.

Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We all have an inner critic. For many of us, our inner critic is very harsh and wreaks havoc on our self-esteem. Whether it comes in the form of Judge, Controller, Perfectionist or Gremlin, these loud inner critics are brutal. But, and perhaps this is counterintuitive, they are also trying to keep us safe by preempting and therefore avoiding the disapproval of others. We can update our interior landscape so our inner monologue can become softer, kinder and quieter. And now through kindness and compassion, encourage us to be the best we can be.

Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Low self-esteem often manifests as a persistent inner critic, chronic people-pleasing, and the habit of evaluating your entire worth based on external validation. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and acceptance-based strategies, I help individuals identify and dismantle deep-seated, negative core beliefs. Our clinical work focuses on shifting from harsh self-criticism to objective self-appraisal, building healthy boundaries, and establishing a resilient, internal foundation of self-worth that is independent of performance.

Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Struggles with self-esteem often show up as self-doubt, harsh inner criticism, or difficulty trusting your own voice. Rather than trying to “think more positively,” we explore the deeper patterns that shaped how you relate to yourself. Through somatic and relational work, you can begin to develop a more grounded sense of worth that feels stable, embodied, and less dependent on external validation.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I immediately see so many strengths and wonderful things about the people I meet in my work, and they have such difficulty seeing it in themselves. I assist in reframing negative and irrational beliefs and false narratives, and giving an objective third party perspective to bring you back to center. We explore the origins of these negative self-statements and develop ways to form new belief systems, based on your idiosyncratic talents and skills. Everyone has something great about them, but comparison destroys this feeling (and typically, people compare in ways that make them feel worse rather than better.)

Cleveland carries a post-industrial identity with deep civic pride, and the mental health effects of decades of economic decline — job loss, population contraction, and community stress — are themes many local therapists engage with regularly. The city is home to the Cleveland Clinic, one of the world's premier medical institutions, which maintains extensive psychiatric and behavioral health services alongside a large private practice community concentrated in Cleveland Heights, Shaker Heights, and Lakewood. Cleveland's large Black community and history of racial inequity drive demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and social justice themes. University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center provides additional institutional mental health resources in a city with a well-established independent practice community.
