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
Rising Calm Center
Life Coach, MA, CMHC
I help individuals struggling with low self-esteem, self-doubt, and negative self-perception uncover the deeper wounds, beliefs, and experiences that have shaped how they see themselves. Through a compassionate, trauma-informed, and faith-based approach, I support clients in challenging distorted thinking, healing emotional wounds, strengthening self-worth, and rebuilding identity from a place of truth rather than shame. My desire is to help individuals grow in confidence, self-compassion, and a secure identity rooted in Christ.

Joel Schmidt
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor
Struggles with self-esteem often show up as harsh inner criticism, people-pleasing, or feeling like you’re never quite enough. I help clients untangle those patterns and build a more honest, compassionate relationship with themselves. Together, we’ll explore where those beliefs came from—and start creating new ways of thinking, feeling, and showing up that reflect who you really are, not just who you’ve been told to be.

Self Esteem
Brianna Gomez
Pre-Licensed Professional, MS - Bilingual Trauma Informed Therapist
Self-esteem can be such a complicated topic and helping the client to identify their own personal goals is an important part of the work towards establishing a healthier sense of self. Difficulties with self-esteem can frequently stem from traumatic and/or difficult experiences throughout childhood and clients will be supported to discuss such types of situations from their past only if and when they may feel ready to do so. Frequently treatment goals related to self-esteem are gathering unconditional positive regard for oneself based on who we are as individuals rather than what we may or may not be accomplishing.
