Self Esteem
Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
I help individuals who struggle with low self-esteem with an evidence-based approach called Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC). It combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion and provides a powerful tool for emotional resilience. Over a thousand research studies have demonstrated that people who are more self-compassionate experience less depression, anxiety, stress, and shame and more happiness, life satisfaction, self-confidence, and physical health. Together, we can work on increasing your ability to relate to yourself with the same kindness and compassion that you would show to a good friend.

Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
I believe that one of the pathways towards self-discovery, self-empowerment and self-love is through the creative spirit. Creativity, imagination, and self-expression can awaken our soul’s innate power to heal itself. Expressive Arts Therapies (EXA) include the full spectrum of creative mediums (Visual Arts, Illustration, Sculpture, Textiles, Film, Animation, Photography, Performing Arts, Theatre, Dance, Music, etc.) as clinically valuable in therapy.
*You don’t have to “be an artist” or “be good at art” to engage with Expressive Arts Therapies. The value of EXA is more about the act of being creative and how it affects your brain functioning, consciousness, self-awareness, and capacity to make new neural pathways, beliefs and thought patterns… It is less about skill-level and conventional aesthetics and more about the heart and soul you give to the process.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You have just taken a small, ginormous step in healing your sense of self. To reach out for help is a BIG declaration of "I am worth it," "I can live a freer life, a kinder to myself life." I am so appreciative of your courage at this very moment. Together, we'll reflect on other times you've taken these small, ginormous steps in recognizing your sense of self, as well as, your intrinsic sense of self-worth. We'll get to know the painful, and, the uplifting messages that tend to echo in your mind, body, and spirit. We'll discover the parts of you that are really holding true to these different messages, and, we'll learn new roles for these parts that are more helpful to you now. There will be time for story-telling and for story-rewriting. We'll heal stories known in word memory, as well as, the stories known only in your body. You'll be the director, and I'll be right there with you paving paths, highlighting different options on the journey towards a more confident posture as you live your most genuine life--being known, safely, by yourself and others.
