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.

Saralee Kramer Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self esteem is a term often tossed around, but what does it mean? It's learning to take excellent care of ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually so we can share with our friends and family from our overflow, instead of being selfish and needy. It's the job of adults to take care of ourselves first, so we can take care of others. Sometimes people were raised in families that were very stressed and their was trauma that got in the way of this learning. That's ok. I can help. Learning how to take care of your adult self isn't that difficult and doesn't take much time. Then you just practice and grow.

Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
Therapy has helped me learn how to trust myself despite expectations from family, friends, and culture. The weight of societal pressures may cause us to doubt ourselves and second-guess our decisions. As you connect more deeply with who you are, your own self awareness will inspire confidence and clarity in your values, desires, and boundaries. This awareness acts as our anchor when our self esteem is challenged. My hope is to provide a safer place for you to cultivate that deeper connection with yourself.

Chris Bradt
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
Our self-concept is one of the most powerful stories we tell ourselves. Sometimes that story is implicit - we go through life simply believing we are broken, for example - and sometimes it is explicit - such as through negative self-talk. Either way, we can learn to shift our narratives to be more compassionate and also more in line with evidence we observe in our lives, thus positively affecting our self-esteem. I see the goodness in each of my clients every time we meet and, as your therapist, can provide that reflection to you so it can become a genuine part of your sense of self.

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.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Much of my work revolves around self esteem and the shame that often underlies it. My take on self esteem is developing a sense of confidence in yourself that is neither increased by praise from others nor decreased by criticism from others. This might sound like a distant possibility, but with the approach I take it is actually much closer than you might expect and can start immediately.
