Self Esteem
Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals who are looking to improve self-esteem by exploring patterns of self-criticism, comparison, and negative self-talk that can impact confidence and overall well-being. Low self-esteem can influence relationships, decision-making, and how you view your own worth. In therapy, we focus on identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs, building self-awareness, and developing a more balanced and compassionate perspective of yourself. I incorporate CBT and ACT-based strategies to support you in shifting how you relate to your thoughts and in building a stronger sense of self that is grounded in your values rather than self-doubt.

Self Esteem
Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Self-esteem is not about becoming someone new or trying harder to feel confident—it’s about rebuilding a steady, respectful relationship with yourself. Many people struggle with self-esteem because they’ve learned to doubt their instincts, minimize their needs, or measure their worth through others’ approval. In therapy, we gently explore how these patterns developed and how they show up today, without judgment or pressure to “fix” anything right away.
My approach to self-esteem work is warm, practical, and compassionate. Together, we focus on strengthening your inner voice, quieting self-criticism, and learning how to take yourself seriously—especially in moments when it feels uncomfortable to do so. Over time, self-esteem grows less from positive thinking and more from self-trust: honoring your limits, speaking honestly, and choosing yourself in small, meaningful ways.

Rachel J Fischer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Using an insight-oriented ("psychodynamic") and relational approach, I help clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and the underlying factors that contribute to their challenges. In my therapy sessions, I am committed to creating a warm and supportive environment where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. With patience and careful listening, I will offer insights and guidance in a thoughtful, gentle, and non-judgmental manner. Together, we will navigate your challenges, uncover patterns, and explore your own inner resources for resilience and growth, allowing you to embrace a more authentic, confident, and fulfilling life.

Self Esteem
Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self esteem issues are universal. Do you think realistically or unrealistically about your self esteem or self-worth? Do you base your self esteem too much on what others think of you? Self esteem issues are often best treated with a combination of individual and group therapy. If you prefer, I can suggest a workbook for out of session help with self esteem.
