Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Low self-esteem can permeate every area of your life—affecting your relationships, career decisions, daily interactions, and overall sense of fulfillment. When you struggle with self-doubt, negative self-talk, or feelings of inadequacy, it becomes difficult to pursue your goals, set healthy boundaries, or believe you deserve good things.
I help clients understand and transform their relationship with themselves. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll identify the negative thought patterns and core beliefs that undermine your self-worth—those critical inner voices that tell you you're not good enough, capable enough, or worthy enough. Together, we'll challenge these distorted beliefs and replace them with more balanced, compassionate perspectives grounded in reality. My goal is to help you develop genuine self-confidence, practice self-compassion, and recognize your inherent worth. You'll learn practical skills to quiet your inner critic, celebrate your strengths, and build a healthier, more authentic relationship with yourself.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Struggles with self-esteem often develop from early experiences that shaped how you see yourself and what you believe you deserve. Together we explore the origins of self-criticism, perfectionism, and negative core beliefs. Using trauma-informed and somatic approaches, we work to quiet the inner critic and build a more grounded, stable sense of self-worth that is not dependent on constant achievement or approval.
