Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Struggles with self-esteem can affect nearly every aspect of life—from relationships and career decisions to mental health and overall well-being. As a therapist, I help individuals identify the internal messages and life experiences that have shaped how they see themselves. Together, we work to challenge self-critical thoughts, build self-compassion, and develop a more balanced and empowering self-image. Through a supportive and collaborative process, I guide clients in recognizing their inherent worth and cultivating the confidence to live more authentically. Lasting change comes not just from thinking differently, but from experiencing yourself in a new, more empowered way—and therapy can be a powerful place to begin that journey.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have been struggling with self-esteem issues and the challenges that this can lead to in their mood, relationships, sense of competence at school or work, and sense of identity. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I work with individuals who struggle with self-esteem, self-doubt, and feeling like they’re never quite “good enough.” These feelings can show up in so many ways—being overly hard on yourself, comparing yourself to others, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or constantly second-guessing yourself. Over time, it can become exhausting carrying the weight of criticism and pressure internally while trying to appear okay on the outside. My goal is to create a supportive, encouraging space where you can feel accepted as you are while building confidence, self-trust, and a healthier relationship with yourself. Together, we work on quieting self-criticism, recognizing your strengths, and helping you feel more grounded, worthy, and comfortable in your own life.

Self Esteem
Alisia Ives at Status Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
In order to grow your self-esteem, often changes are important. Including and vital, is noticing your self-talk, and noticing yourself succeeding. Rewriting narratives in your head. Maybe you hear in your head someone saying things that put you down; maybe you have become friendly with people who repeat the same things you don't like, but feel familiar, so you continue the relationship. We will come up with ways to work on behaviors, relationships and self-talk/thinking to build your self-esteem. Also how you feel. If this is a life-so-far issue, it will take time. You don't have to be meeting with a counselor/therapist the whole time. We will talk about it and plans to make changes.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many clients struggle with a pervasive feeling of not being good enough, which makes it challenging for them to live life authentically and form meaningful and vulnerable connections with others. My primary task as a therapist is to create an environment in which clients can feel empowered to show up as their whole selves, without fear of judgment and rejection.

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. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults build healthy self-esteem, greater self-confidence, and a stronger sense of self-worth. Many individuals struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, negative self-talk, body image concerns, or feelings of not being "good enough." These challenges can affect relationships, career success, emotional well-being, and overall life satisfaction. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion practices, and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, recognize their strengths, develop self-acceptance, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate view of themselves. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and capable of living in alignment with their values and goals.

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Confidence is an inside job—and it’s something you can learn to build!
I work with individuals who struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, and feeling unsure of their value. Many of these patterns are rooted in long-standing beliefs and experiences that shape how you see yourself and show up in relationships.
In our work together, we focus on identifying and shifting limiting beliefs, strengthening your sense of self, and building practical skills such as assertive communication, healthy boundaries, conflict resolution, and effective coping strategies.
Over time, this process helps you move out of self-doubt and into a more grounded, confident, and self-expressed version of yourself.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Having a poor self-image and thinking negatively about yourself can tear you down. But knowing your worth in Christ and tackling negative messages can lift you up and give you a renewed sense of self-worth. Dealing with past issue and messages that led to the self-esteem can prove beneficial to the client.

Self-esteem can be a tenuous experience that is constantly at risk if we define ourselves by success/failure.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
If you spend any time with a preschooler, you notice very quickly they have very few problem with healthy self-esteem or "being themselves!" I believe the erosion of self-esteem is learned through experience (e.g., attachment problems, trauma, neglect, bullying, marginalization, etc.). I utilize approaches like EMDR and ego-state therapies to help heal the experiences that first eroded your inherent feelings of self worth followed by strengthening internal resources to more confidently approach the present and future.
