Self Esteem
Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Self-esteem isn’t just about confidence—it’s about how you see yourself at your core. If you grew up in an environment where love felt conditional, criticism was constant, or your emotions weren’t valued, you may have learned to question your worth. Maybe you tell yourself you’re not good enough, push yourself to exhaustion to prove your value, or shrink in relationships to avoid rejection. Deep down, you might struggle with shame—the belief that something is fundamentally wrong with you. Even when you achieve success or receive love, it can feel like an accident, as if people will see the “real you” and realize you’re not enough. This isn’t just insecurity—it’s the result of old emotional wounds that need healing.
Post-Induction Therapy (PIT) helps break the cycle of shame and rebuild self-worth from the inside out. Developed by Pia Mellody, PIT addresses the deep emotional wounds from childhood that shape how you see yourself today. In therapy, we work to identify and heal the toxic messages you internalized, so you can stop defining yourself by past experiences and start believing in your inherent worth. You don’t have to keep proving yourself, people-pleasing, or battling the fear that you’re not enough. Therapy helps you release shame, reclaim your self-esteem, and finally feel comfortable in your own skin—not because you’ve earned it, but because you’ve always been worthy.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
There is only one person we will talk to most in our lives and that is ourselves. Therefore, we must watch what we are saying. When one is living with a lot of underlying shame, it impacts how we look at ourselves and view our place in the world. My goal is to help you see the beauty in not only your strengths but also your imperfections and find self acceptance along the journey.

Persistent self-doubt can shape how you see yourself, what you pursue, and what you accept in relationships. I help you understand where these beliefs come from, recognize your strengths, and build a steadier sense of worth that allows room for being human.

Desert to Peaks Psychology
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Our practice has a large emphasis on working with clients who struggle with self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and feeling “not enough.” You can expect your therapist to work with you to explore the deeper experiences, relationships, and belief systems that have shaped how you see yourself and how you show up in the world. Therapy sessions may help you identify patterns of self-criticism or comparison while creating space to understand where those narratives began and how they’ve been reinforced over time. Your therapist will help you build a more stable and internally grounded sense of worth over time. We will support you in challenging limiting beliefs, strengthening self-trust, and developing self-compassion.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LAC
Many people struggle with feeling "not good enough" despite evidence of their strengths, accomplishments, and value. My approach focuses on helping clients understand the experiences and beliefs that have shaped their self-perception while building a more balanced and accurate view of themselves. Together, we work to challenge self-critical thinking, strengthen self-confidence, and develop practical skills that support greater self-trust and resilience in everyday life.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach social anxiety through a relational and nervous system lens, recognizing that fear, self-consciousness, and avoidance often develop as protective responses to experiences of feeling unsafe, disconnected, or misunderstood. Therapy focuses on creating a space of relational safety where clients can better understand their responses, build confidence, and gradually develop a greater sense of comfort and connection in relationships and social situations.
