Eliana Kohanzad
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, MDR
As a therapist specializing in self-esteem, I provide a nurturing and empathetic space for individuals to explore and enhance their sense of self-worth. Together, we'll work on identifying the root causes of low self-esteem and understanding how it manifests in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Using evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and positive psychology, I'll help you challenge negative self-talk, overcome self-limiting beliefs, and cultivate a more compassionate self-view. We'll explore your strengths, values, and achievements to build a healthier self-concept and foster self-acceptance. My goal is to empower you to embrace your inherent worth, build resilience against setbacks, and live authentically with confidence. Let's embark on this journey towards nurturing a positive and fulfilling relationship with yourself.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
Low self-esteem runs deeper than merely “not feeling confident.” It shapes the way we interpret relationships, respond to criticism, and pursue what we want. Sometimes the harshest judgments we carry about ourselves began as adaptations to earlier relationships or environments in which love, approval, or safety felt conditional. Our work can help uncover how those beliefs took hold, loosen the authority they still carry, and develop a more stable sense of worth that is not so dependent on achievement, reassurance, or the reactions of other people.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The way a teen talks about themselves in a session is usually harsher than anything they would say out loud to a parent. Stupid, lazy, a burden, behind everyone else. I help teens notice those sentences as thoughts rather than facts, test them against what is actually true, and build a version of self-talk they can live with. This work moves slowly and it holds, and it tends to change friendships and school in its wake rather than the other way around.

David Eshleman
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
If we do not improve and heal our self esteem, we will go throughout life either as a doormat that eventually becomes resentful, or as someone who carries a great deal of rage. Either way, life is not in balance, and this creates more suffering. Healing self-esteem (self respect and admiration) leads to a deep internal shift that frees us to be more authentic, balanced, and whole not only on the outside, but on the inside as well. This leads to better relationships across the board. Many times trauma and attachment is at the root of this. Building con+fidence (to go, with trust), self-love, assertiveness and boundary setting, increases the ability to give and receive love and acceptance.

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Do you struggle to get out of your own head? Do people say, "you're too hard on yourself"? Is there a role you're afraid to apply for, a relationship you're afraid to pursue, or a leap you're hesitant to take? Building self-esteem is not about accomplishing more "to do's" on your checklist--that only builds situational confidence. Building self-esteem is really about removing the beliefs and blockages that keep you from experiencing your intrinsic value. Simply put, (like the statue of David) it's not about adding, it's about removing. Together we will explore what has led to the lack of self-esteem and work to get remove the beliefs that keep you from feeling confident and fulfilled.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Shame is a major detriment to self-esteem. Self-esteem is built up in childhood, and if we had abusive or neglectful childhood experiences (ACEs or "adverse childhood experiences", we may carry unprocessed shame that interferes with our self-esteem.
