At MaVie Behavioral Health, we understand how a persistent inner critic, negative self-talk, and feelings of inadequacy can hold you back from living a full, confident life.

Through 100% virtual counseling, our master’s-level therapists provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you challenge unhelpful self-beliefs, rebuild self-compassion, and recognize your true value.

Self Esteem
Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
Do you struggle with letting people take advantage of you, expecting you to sacrifice to the point that you barely exist? Do you feel terribly guilty if you say, "no" or change your mind? Are you in a pattern of abuse? There is hope.
Often, messages about self-worth start in childhood. Using evidence-based therapy methods, we'll identify where you learned to accept maltreatment, heal the pain of those experiences, and apply new, positive self-beliefs to the expectations of standards for how others can treat you.

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.

In therapy, we’ll explore the experiences and beliefs that shaped how you see yourself and begin to build a healthier, more confident inner foundation. Through insight, self-compassion, and mindfulness, you can learn to replace self-criticism with acceptance and courage—helping you feel more comfortable in your own skin and empowered in your choices.

Phoenix's extreme summer heat and sprawling, car-dependent geography contribute to social isolation and depression, with many residents spending months in largely indoor environments with limited organic social contact. The city has grown rapidly through domestic migration, and therapists frequently work with the disconnection and loneliness that can accompany life in a place where many people lack long-established roots and community ties. Phoenix has a significant veteran population, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and veteran family concerns are well represented. Banner Health and Dignity Health provide major institutional mental health resources, with a large private practice community serving Scottsdale, Tempe, and the East Valley.
