Self Esteem
Heather Champion
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Court Mediator
How many surface issues come from deep self-hatred or lack of self-esteem? Almost all of them. The name of my practice is Maitri which is a Sanskrit word for self-love. My practice exists to help people learn to love and accept themselves as if we are our own best friend. The key here is acceptance and acceptance is not complacency.

Self Esteem
Carlos "Charlie" Garcia
Registered Psychotherapist, RMHC, CCC, MSc, CCTP
Self-esteem isn’t just about confidence. It’s about acceptance. It’s what you actually see when you look at yourself in the mirror.
It shows up in how you see that person, how you relate to others, the boundaries you set, the choices you make, and in that internal dialogue you carry with you every day.
Sometimes it looks like overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or feeling like you’re not enough. Even when you’re doing everything right, it can feel like you don’t really deserve it, or that at some point people will realize who you really are and leave.
We can work on understanding where that comes from, how those patterns developed, and how to shift them so you can feel more grounded in who you are, trust yourself more, and move through your life and relationships with more clarity and confidence, because you deserve to feel and live as the person you already are.

Self Esteem
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Self-esteem is not something you build by telling yourself better things in the mirror. That is cosmetics. Real self-worth is structural — it comes from having been received by someone who could actually see you, and from learning, over time, to hold yourself with that same steadiness. When that early receiving didn't happen, or happened only conditionally, a person learns to earn their right to exist through performance, through usefulness, through disappearing their own needs. Therapy is not about learning to think more positively. It is about discovering that the part of you that was never good enough was answering a question someone else asked — and that you are allowed to stop answering it.

Self Esteem
Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Do you struggle to see your own worth? Maybe you’re constantly comparing yourself to others, feeling not good enough, or doubting whether people truly value you. Over time, these thoughts take a toll, making it hard to trust yourself or feel confident in who you are. I enjoy helping my clients quiet the self-doubt, let go of harsh inner criticism, and build a sense of self-worth that feels solid and real. You don’t have to keep questioning your value, you deserve to believe in it.
