Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Self-esteem is often shaped by far more than confidence alone. It can be deeply influenced by trauma, marginalization, neurodivergence, family messages, culture, ableism, racism, and experiences of feeling unseen, misunderstood, or not enough.
I support in exploring the stories you have inherited or internalized about your worth and begin cultivating a more compassionate, authentic, and grounded relationship with yourself. Our work centers self-trust, self-acceptance, and reconnecting with strengths, values, and identities that may have been obscured beneath years of criticism, survival, or adaptation.

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.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling with self-esteem, self-doubt, or a harsh inner critic. Many people come to therapy feeling not “good enough,” second-guessing themselves, or feeling stuck in patterns that affect their confidence, relationships, and overall well-being.
In therapy, we explore the experiences and relationships that have shaped how you see yourself, while building greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and emotional resilience. My approach integrates relational and neuroscience-informed perspectives to help clients understand their emotional patterns and develop a stronger, more grounded sense of self. The goal is to help you move toward greater confidence, authenticity, and a more supportive relationship with yourself.

Self Esteem
Brooke Taylor
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.
