Self Esteem
Rory Valentine Diller
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.

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.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my approach to supporting clients with self-esteem issues, I create a warm and non-judgmental space where individuals can explore and understand the roots of their feelings towards themselves. Incorporating a blend of holistic strategies and psychotherapeutic techniques, such as Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I guide clients on a journey towards self-acceptance and confidence. This comprehensive method not only addresses the immediate challenges related to self-esteem but also fosters a deeper sense of self-awareness and self-compassion. By working together to identify negative thought patterns and develop healthier ways of relating to oneself, clients can build a more positive self-image and enhance their overall quality of life. My role is to support and empower you through this process of self-discovery, providing the tools and insights to establish a positive self-acceptance.
