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.

Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Struggles with self-esteem can affect nearly every aspect of life—from relationships and career decisions to mental health and overall well-being. As a therapist, I help individuals identify the internal messages and life experiences that have shaped how they see themselves. Together, we work to challenge self-critical thoughts, build self-compassion, and develop a more balanced and empowering self-image. Through a supportive and collaborative process, I guide clients in recognizing their inherent worth and cultivating the confidence to live more authentically. Lasting change comes not just from thinking differently, but from experiencing yourself in a new, more empowered way—and therapy can be a powerful place to begin that journey.

Self Esteem
Barbara Magnusson Coffee
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LMFT
If self esteem is lacking, it feels like there's a big black hole in your chest or stomache that nothing can fill. We often try to fill the emptiness with food, alcohol or other substances, or relationships that are based on need, not mutual respect and love. It helps to have a guide to coach you to filling that hole in a healthy way so you feel complete and whole by yourself, while still being human and desiring a relationship which is natural and healthy.

Self Esteem
Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
In therapy, addressing self-esteem concerns involves creating a supportive and nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their beliefs, emotions, and experiences with compassion and understanding. Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques, narrative therapy, and mindfulness practices, I help clients challenge negative self-talk, identify underlying core beliefs, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate self-view. By exploring past experiences, traumas, and societal influences, clients gain insight into the origins of their self-esteem issues and develop strategies for building self-acceptance and resilience.

Self Esteem
Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Self-esteem shapes how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how confidently we move through life. When self-esteem is low, people often struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, fear of judgment, or feeling “not enough,” even when they are capable and accomplished. These patterns are often learned over time and reinforced at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with self-esteem is personalized and respectful. Rather than focusing solely on positive thinking, hypnosis helps address the underlying beliefs and emotional responses that influence how individuals perceive themselves. Sessions are tailored to each client’s goals and life experience, supporting the development of healthier self-perception, confidence, and emotional resilience.
Clients often seek hypnosis for self-esteem when long-standing patterns persist despite insight or effort. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that allows clients to remain aware and in control while gently reinforcing more supportive beliefs and behaviors.
This work is offered as a supportive tool for personal growth and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and self-accepting.

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Bayfront Health St. Petersburg provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
