Self Esteem therapists in Salida, California CA
Erica McArn
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self-esteem is an intrinsic self-evaluation and internal labeling of an individual's subjective self-worth. Low self-esteem can have significant negative effects in a person's life and lead to many difficulties from challenges in interpersonal relationships to issues navigating social situations. I work closely with clients utilizing an eclectic approach to explore self-worth, promote positive self-talk/affirmations, and develop goals around improving self-esteem.

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.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
With low self-esteem you may often feel shame and self-doubt. Here are some warning signs that may indicate that it's time to seek help in the form of talk therapy:
- You frequently feel overwhelmed, angry, ignored and/or taken advantage of in relationships
- You experience frequent and sudden mood swings
- You frequently have difficulty beginning, completing and/or accomplishing tasks (at work, school, personal or otherwise)
- You frequently feel alone and at a loss as to how to help yourself
- You're constantly trying to “fix,” “do” or “say” the right thing to get people to like you, or agree with you
By using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) I can help you: 1) Identify and understand the source(s) of low self-esteem, 2) Process past negative experiences in a safe, nurturing space, 3) Learn to recognize critical voices that are not your own, 4) Notice “all or nothing” thinking patterns. I can help you learn to use your voice effectively, help you identify what you want and need, recognize unhealthy thought patterns, and make small changes in your day to day life that will add up to big changes in your overall happiness and contentment in life.

How does self esteem relate to feelings of depression and anxiety?
What you belief about yourself is often derogatory even though psychologists estimate that over 90% of your beliefs are unconscious and that most of your unconscious beliefs were created as a result of thoughts that you were positively and negatively programmed to believe.
