Most individuals struggle at one time or another with a moment of self doubt, though some find themselves challenged on a deeper level in finding their worth or sense of belonging. I work with individuals to explore their unhelpful beliefs, strengths and gifts with a goal of building a healthier sense of self.

Self Esteem
Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I want to be happy; I want to feel better; I want to feel good about myself. Many people come in with these goals but feel hopeless about finding a path toward them. I hold a specialization in positive psychology, and a focus on esteem, worth, and meaning is deeply embedded in all of my work. I work with many people who are struggling to feel good about themselves or their lives and hoping for better.

Self Esteem
Jenelle N. Ashley
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP
Every where we go we are bombarded with daily comparisons to other people. Movies, magazines, commercials etc. are never ending. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling a bit inadequate when we become fused with our thoughts surrounding these comparisons. In my practice, we work on self compassion and self-acceptance focusing on what really matters (our values) in hopes of working towards finding our authentic self.

Self Esteem
Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever wondered why you feel like you’re not enough—no matter how hard you try? You accomplish, serve, achieve, and still sense a quiet ache of inadequacy underneath it all. That voice of comparison or guilt keeps whispering, “You should be doing better.”
At Rising Calm Center, we help you understand that voice for what it is—not truth, but a wound. Our Christian counselors walk with you to heal the root causes of shame, perfectionism, and fear, so confidence can grow from the inside out.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We blend biblical identity work with evidence-based therapies—CBT, ACT, IFS, and somatic calming tools—to help you:
• Silence the inner critic and build self-compassion
• Recognize and rewrite the false stories that fuel insecurity
• Strengthen your sense of worth through God’s truth, not performance
• Cultivate boundaries, resilience, and courage in relationships
• Live with calm assurance instead of constant proving
You were never meant to earn your value—it was given. When you begin to see yourself as God does—chosen, capable, and loved—peace replaces striving, and confidence becomes quiet strength.
If you’re ready to rise above self-doubt and walk in steady assurance, we’re here to help you rediscover your God-given worth.
Hope and healing can begin today—call or email for your FREE CONSULTATION.

Self Esteem
Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
Many of us are our own harshest critics, trapped in a cycle of perfectionism and self-doubt. I specialize in helping individuals bridge the gap between their external success and their internal sense of value. By integrating Clinical Hypnotherapy with trauma-informed psychotherapy, we address the subconscious blocks that prevent you from owning your strengths. We don’t just 'build' self-esteem; we remove the barriers—like guilt, shame, and fear of failure—that have been obscuring your true value for years.
