Self Esteem
Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
Maybe you don't feel very confident, aren't very nice to yourself or you just don't take very good care of yourself. I will do a comprehensive assessment process to really get to know all of the relevant information and then will design a plan with your input to look at how you can change your self-talk for the better as well as how you can set and maintain better boundaries, enabling you to feel good about yourself in a way that doesn't rely on external validation.

Self Esteem
Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Struggles with self-esteem often have deep developmental roots. Early attachment experiences, criticism, or unmet emotional needs can shape how we relate to ourselves. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment theory, and Emotionally Focused principles to help clients understand where self-doubt, shame, or perfectionism began.
Together, we work with the parts of you that carry harsh self-criticism or fear of rejection, while strengthening your core Self—your natural capacity for confidence, clarity, and compassion. Therapy supports lasting change by fostering secure internal attachment and a more grounded sense of worth.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
Low self-esteem often grows from early relational wounds and cultural messaging. Together we build a sturdier internal foundation rooted in self-worth, clarity, and confidence.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Self-esteem is often shaped by far more than confidence alone. It can be deeply influenced by trauma, marginalization, neurodivergence, family messages, culture, ableism, racism, and experiences of feeling unseen, misunderstood, or not enough.
I support in exploring the stories you have inherited or internalized about your worth and begin cultivating a more compassionate, authentic, and grounded relationship with yourself. Our work centers self-trust, self-acceptance, and reconnecting with strengths, values, and identities that may have been obscured beneath years of criticism, survival, or adaptation.

Self Esteem
Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in helping clients build self-esteem by using a variety of therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Through CBT, we identify and challenge negative self-talk and limiting beliefs, replacing them with healthier, more empowering thoughts. ACT encourages clients to embrace their values and take actions that align with their authentic selves, fostering self-compassion and acceptance. EMDR is helpful in processing past trauma or experiences that have contributed to low self-esteem, allowing clients to release emotional blocks and develop a more positive self-image. My goal is to support clients in creating lasting, meaningful changes that improve their confidence and self-worth.

Self Esteem
Zena Caputo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Chronic feelings of self-doubt and low self-worth can lead to anxiety, depression, unsatisfying social and romantic relationships, distress at work, and to an exhausting sense of always needing to ‘do more’ or push ourselves to the brink just in order to feel like we’re enough. Our work together can help you to increase your understanding of where these internal drives come from, remain connected to your value while you reach for your ambitions, and improve your ability to view yourself with acceptance and compassion so that you can move through life with greater confidence and resilience.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
The most rewarding relationship to develop is that with yourself because it affects all areas of life- in a loving environment, we see what gets in the way and (re)discover our inherent worth.

Self Esteem
Nikita Marina
Psychologist, Holistic Psychology and Coaching, Past Life Regression Therapy (IST), Spiritual Mentorship
Self-esteem stems from deep appreciation and acceptance of our personal worth and values. In the modern world, our perception and expectations of ourselves are heavily impacted by the distorted mirror of the social media. Even the most externally successful people can struggle from low self-esteem. If not addressed, it can potentially become a debilitating all consuming issue that spills out onto every aspect of one's life. The work on self-esteem is really the work on getting to know and accepting both the parts of us that we like and the aspects that we reject, also known as the Shadow.
