Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
For most my life I suffered from low self esteem. I also had severe social anxiety. I was depressed and very stuck. I procrastinated about everything. Much of my low self esteem stemmed from growing up in a dysfunctional family and from school. No matter what the cause of your low self esteem, I can help you resolve it. I have worked with 100s of clients successfully. Please schedule a 30 minute complimentary consultation on my website so we can discuss how i can help you live a confident life and create the life you really want to live.

Jovantae Holloway
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I'm a master of self-esteem issues! I've had multiple issues and successes with my own self-esteem and in helping others build theirs. I use narrative therapy and play therapy to help people rip off negative self-fulfilling prophecies and build confidence that comes from within, not from what society tells you you need to be.

Victoria Miller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
With low self-esteem you may often feel shame and self-doubt. Here are some warning signs that may indicate that it's time to seek help in the form of talk therapy:
- You frequently feel overwhelmed, angry, ignored and/or taken advantage of in relationships
- You experience frequent and sudden mood swings
- You frequently have difficulty beginning, completing and/or accomplishing tasks (at work, school, personal or otherwise)
- You frequently feel alone and at a loss as to how to help yourself
- You're constantly trying to “fix,” “do” or “say” the right thing to get people to like you, or agree with you
By using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) I can help you: 1) Identify and understand the source(s) of low self-esteem, 2) Process past negative experiences in a safe, nurturing space, 3) Learn to recognize critical voices that are not your own, 4) Notice “all or nothing” thinking patterns. I can help you learn to use your voice effectively, help you identify what you want and need, recognize unhealthy thought patterns, and make small changes in your day to day life that will add up to big changes in your overall happiness and contentment in life.

Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The way we see ourselves is the lens through which we engage in the world around us. Poor self-esteem and feelings of being broken or inadequate triggers sadness or anxiety. On top of that, though, holding a low opinion of ourselves affects the choices we make, too. We may avoid socializing or putting ourselves out there for a big promotion.
In our work together, we will examine these negative beliefs and improve your relationship with yourself.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, MSW, ASW, PPSC
In addressing the complex issue of self-esteem in my practice, I delve deep into the root causes that underpin feelings of low self-worth, focusing on individuals who, due to their empathetic nature, high sensitivity, or autism, experience the world with intense emotional depth. These unique traits, while profound gifts, can also lead to overwhelming self-criticism, anxiety, and shame, often stemming from an acute awareness of others' emotions and judgments. This heightened sensitivity can culminate in challenges such as difficulty setting boundaries, a propensity towards people-pleasing, and perfectionism, all of which can erode self-esteem and contribute to a sense of burnout and disconnection from one's true self.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the understanding that low self-esteem often arises from these deep-seated patterns of thinking and interacting with the world. By exploring the origins of these feelings—whether they're rooted in childhood experiences, societal expectations, or the intrinsic challenges of navigating life with heightened sensitivity—we embark on a journey of healing and transformation. This process is focused on uncovering and addressing the underlying causes of low self-esteem, moving beyond surface-level solutions to foster lasting change.
Together, we work to develop healthier boundaries, reduce self-criticism, and embrace authenticity, empowering individuals to reclaim their self-worth independently of external validation. The goal is to help those I work with to confidently shine their light, building connections that honor their authentic selves, and to discover a sense of self that is free from overwhelm and self-doubt. This depth-oriented, root cause approach to therapy is about nurturing a strong, resilient sense of self-esteem that supports a life of fulfillment, confidence, and genuine connection, celebrating the unique gifts of sensitivity and empathy as sources of strength and connection.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Self-esteem and self-worth can often be old negative beliefs and narratives that have been repeated over time by others and with your internal dialogue. Learning self-compassion and practicing the nurture of self-care can help to create a different and more loving relationship with yourself.
