Self Esteem
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Low self-esteem rarely announces itself directly — it shows up in the relationships you settle for, the opportunities you talk yourself out of, the relentless inner critic that measures everything you do and finds it lacking. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults identify and challenge the deep-rooted beliefs driving low self-worth, self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chronic self-criticism. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I work with clients to build genuine, lasting self-confidence, self-compassion, and a stronger, more secure sense of identity. Telehealth therapy for self-esteem available across 40+ states.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Over the course of my extensive career working with clients, I have come to recognize a central theme that underpins many psychological conditions: the pervasive belief that one is "not good enough." It's these negative thoughts, deeply ingrained, that often serve as the bedrock of depression and anxiety. Yet, the undeniable truth is that you are inherently perfect and complete just as you are in this very moment. There's no need to strive for greater wealth, slimmer physique, heightened intelligence, or increased affluence to be deserving and inherently worthy.
My approach to bolstering your self-esteem is highly personalized, crafted to align with your unique personality and life circumstances. As a neuropsychologist, I possess the expertise to help you uncover blind spots and confront those negative core beliefs that may be eroding your self-esteem. Together, we embark on the journey of rewiring your brain with more empowering thought patterns. This multifaceted approach may incorporate various therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, thought conditioning, cognitive restructuring, assertiveness training, problem-solving strategies, and honing your social skills. Throughout this transformative process, I will impart specific tools and techniques designed to fortify your self-esteem, drawing upon practices such as affirmations, mindfulness, meditation, visualization, and positive self-talk. Our collaborative efforts aim to empower you with heightened self-esteem and a profound sense of self-efficacy, ultimately paving the way for a life filled with inner joy and tranquility.

John Burkin
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
I introduced treatment for self-esteem into my practice as a stand-alone goal years ago learning about this topic through research. When working with patients in the first few sessions themes will emerge and I will learn how self-esteem presents itself with them. The three areas of focus in terms of self-esteem and how I approach healing is to look at Self-Love, Self-Confidence and Self-Worth.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
When you’re outwardly successful but inwardly feel like you’re never quite good enough, it chips away at your ability to show up authentically in your life. Maybe you constantly doubt your own decisions, second-guess your value, or wrestle with the fear that others will see through your confidence to your insecurities beneath. Dr. Jenny Shields helps driven professionals rebuild a more grounded and compassionate sense of self-worth through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and narrative approaches. Her highly individualized style supports you in untangling critical self-beliefs, reclaiming your strengths, and moving toward a genuine, resilient self-confidence—one that isn’t dependent on external validation or fleeting success.

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.

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!

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients build their self-esteem and repair their self view - something that has likely been destroyed by society and feedback from others about their value and worth. Unfortunately, we live in a culture that does not value people equally. Even highly successful individuals can have a vulnerable self-view that gets activated with setbacks, mistakes, or rejection. If you've found your self-esteem plummeting from time to time, it might be worth investigating what's going on at a deeper level.

Bruce Clark

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.

Mary Sayre
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC
Low self esteem is deeply painful and one is often filled with shame about who he/she/they is(are).
It is helpful to understand the context of low self esteem in helping to rewire the brain and the messages that it carries about oneself.
