Self-esteem is an ever evolving issue for many and one that tends to be a huge problem in young adulthood. Often tangled up in core beliefs about yourself and others, self-esteem can be one of those beasts that feels you are never able to defeat. Utilizing ACT I can help you to learn how to become more confident in yourself and help you to foster self compassion.

Janice Shapiro
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self-Esteem and confidence in ourselves is often lost early on and reinforced again and again along the journey of life. Some people who grew up without a father present or never knew their father often second-guess themselves. This happens because the Father's main role is building confidence in their children, while the mother's main role is nurturing their children. When children have both parents involved in their lives, they have more chance growing up as confident, productive adults.

Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self-compassion is often better than self-esteem because it gives you a steadier, more resilient way to relate to yourself. Instead of depending on success, approval, or comparison, it treats you with kindness even when things go wrong, which makes it easier to recover from mistakes and keep growing. Self-esteem can rise and fall with performance, but self-compassion stays grounded in the simple idea you are worthy of care as a person. That makes it a healthier foundation for confidence, motivation, and emotional balance.

J. Rosalyn Diehl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
Self-esteem influences how you see yourself, relate to others, and navigate life's challenges. When self-worth is low, you may struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or constantly seeking validation from others. I help women build confidence, develop a healthier relationship with themselves, and create lasting changes that support greater self-worth, resilience, and emotional well-being.
