Psychologist, PhD
Self-esteem issues is a polite way of talking about shame. Underneath the mean things you say about yourself is shame and fear. I've struggled with this most of my life. The terrible things I used to say about myself always seemed to manifest around me, which kept me trapped. We will work to unwind the web of beliefs you have and find the beauty deep inside.

Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Low self-esteem in teens is easy to miss, partly because so much of it looks like something else. It can show up as perfectionism, as not trying at all, as apologizing constantly, as needing a lot of reassurance, or as a teen who won't put themselves forward for anything. Some of the most confident-seeming kids are the hardest on themselves in private.
Comparison makes it worse, and teens now live inside an unprecedented amount of it. The measuring stick is always there, always updating, and always someone else's highlight reel.
I work with teens on what's underneath the self-criticism, not just the surface of it. Where did they learn to talk to themselves that way, and who taught it to them? We look at those beliefs directly, and build something steadier in their place. Alongside that, we work on practical things: recognizing what they're actually good at, setting boundaries in friendships, tolerating being disliked, and speaking up for what they need.
The aim isn't to convince your teen they're great. It's to help them relate to themselves with less contempt, so that failing at something stops meaning something about who they are.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have extensive experience helping clients explore their self esteem, self worth, sense of value and confidence. My style in working with self esteem is warm, affirmative, curious and non-judgmental. We explore the seeds that grew roots of insecurities, process any related trauma, and ultimately, increase self-esteem and self-peace.

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.
