Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
In our work together on self-esteem, I meet you exactly where you are—thoughtful, self-aware, and caring deeply about how you show up in your own life and relationships. We’ll slow down and explore, without judgment, the patterns, past experiences, or internalized shame that have quietly shaped how you see and value yourself. Whether those stories show up in your sexuality, your closest relationships, or your sense of safety in your own body, we’ll unpack them together in a warm, collaborative space. You’ll learn to reconnect with your authentic desires and needs, rebuild emotional safety within yourself, and gently challenge the old beliefs that no longer serve you. Most clients begin to feel lighter and more at home in themselves within the first few sessions, moving toward a quieter confidence that ripples into greater closeness, pleasure, and connection in every part of life.

Kimberly Dudley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many women struggle with feeling like they are never doing enough, achieving enough, or measuring up to the expectations placed on them. Low self-esteem often shows up in our relationships, decision-making, boundaries, and ability to trust ourselves. Together, we’ll explore the experiences that have shaped how you see yourself, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and develop a stronger sense of confidence, worth, and self-compassion

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Self-esteem struggles can be painful to live with, but they often carry important information about how you’ve learned to see yourself in relationships and the world. In our work together, we focus on building a steadier sense of internal safety while also exploring what your self-doubt may be responding to—especially in relation to early experiences, major life transitions, or recurring patterns in close relationships. Approached with curiosity and care, difficulties with self-esteem can become a pathway toward greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and a more grounded sense of worth.

Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
Low self-esteem and self-worth is something that can be explored both from the past and present. We can look retrospectively to find the origins of these feelings, while simultaneously focusing on the present and future to find ways to move forward with confidence and self-respect.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
Low self-esteem in men is often hidden behind over-achievment, competence, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or self-criticism. I work with men whose internal standards, shame, or negative self-beliefs undermine confidence and relationships. Treatment targets the origins of these beliefs and builds a more stable, grounded sense of self—not inflated confidence, but earned self-respect.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Low self-esteem rarely starts with logic. You can list your accomplishments and still not feel like enough. That is because self-worth is held in the subconscious, often shaped by experiences in childhood that we long ago stopped consciously remembering. RTT goes back to those root moments and updates the meaning we made of them. The belief "I am not enough" or "I do not matter" was not chosen consciously and it cannot be argued away consciously either. It can be updated at the level where it lives. Most clients begin to notice a real shift in how they feel about themselves within the first session.

Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Low self-esteem can quietly erode your confidence, even when you’re achieving big things—like completing ultras or hitting training goals. You might catch yourself downplaying successes, feeling “not good enough” no matter how hard you train, comparing yourself to others on the trail or in life, or carrying a harsh inner critic that makes every setback feel personal. For endurance athletes, this often shows up as tying your worth to performance, pace, body composition, or external validation.
In our sessions, we gently unpack where these patterns started and work to rebuild a stronger, kinder sense of self. Using CBT to challenge self-critical thoughts, ACT to reconnect with your core values, and DBT skills for self-compassion and emotion regulation, we focus on practical tools that fit your busy athletic lifestyle.
Many clients experience meaningful shifts such as:
Quieting the inner critic and celebrating progress instead of perfection.
Building genuine confidence that isn’t dependent on race results or appearance.
Setting healthier boundaries and speaking to themselves with the same encouragement they’d offer a training partner.
Feeling more worthy of rest, joy, and success—on and off the trails.
Developing a stable sense of self that endures through injuries, DNFs, and life’s ups and downs.
I share practical resources like self-compassion exercises and self-worth journal prompts that we can personalize and use between sessions.
You are already strong—mentally and physically. You deserve to feel that strength in your heart as well as your legs. Together we can help you build lasting self-esteem so you can show up fully, run freely, and finish stronger in every area of life.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When new stressors arise, they can activate old patterns that make it hard to cope in a healthy way. Struggling with self-compassion and self-esteem makes this worse. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening in your life today while also working to understand how the past is informing the present. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You can be accomplished, capable, and caring—and still quietly struggle with feeling like you're not enough. Self-esteem challenges don’t always shout; sometimes, they whisper through perfectionism, people-pleasing, overachievement, or the sense that you’re constantly falling short. Many of my clients wrestle with imposter syndrome—feeling like a fraud despite clear evidence of their success. It doesn’t have to stay that way. If your inner critic has been running the show, therapy can help you reconnect with a more realistic, compassionate view of yourself.
At The Momentum Practice, I work with high-achieving professionals and emerging adults who are ready to understand where these patterns began and how to shift them. Together, we’ll explore how early life dynamics—like high expectations, emotional invalidation, or being praised only for achievement—may still shape how you see yourself. We'll also examine how systems of oppression and societal messages around race, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, productivity, and other aspects of identity can erode your sense of worth, even when you’ve done everything ‘right’ to succeed despite them.
This is a space where all parts of you are welcome. We’ll work to quiet the self-doubt, build insight, and strengthen your self-trust—so that confidence isn’t just something you perform, but something you actually feel. With over 15 years of experience, I offer a collaborative, affirming space to help you rewrite your internal narrative from self-criticism to self-respect. If you're ready to feel more at home in your own mind, I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
