Self Esteem
Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Self-esteem issues frequently coincide with other conditions such as depression, anxiety, or OCD. My work with clients frequently involves helping them to recognize their strengths and to acknowledge their weaknesses with compassion. One of my favorite parts of therapy happens when I notice my clients talking about themselves in a kinder, more compassionate way.

Self Esteem
Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Low self-esteem can show up as self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling “not enough” despite your efforts. I support clients in identifying the beliefs and experiences that have shaped how they see themselves and how they move through the world. In our work together, we focus on building self-awareness, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and developing a more balanced and compassionate relationship with yourself. My goal is to help you feel more confident, grounded, and able to show up in your life with a stronger sense of self-worth and self-trust.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
How we view ourselves is often how we interact with the world. Maybe your self-esteem feels okay or maybe it could use work. Maybe you would like to unpack some hurtful experiences that affected your self-esteem. Either way, let's example the internal self-talk that impacts your self-esteem.

Self Esteem
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults build healthy self-esteem, greater self-confidence, and a stronger sense of self-worth. Many individuals struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, negative self-talk, body image concerns, or feelings of not being "good enough." These challenges can affect relationships, career success, emotional well-being, and overall life satisfaction. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion practices, and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, recognize their strengths, develop self-acceptance, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate view of themselves. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and capable of living in alignment with their values and goals.

Self Esteem
Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Struggling with self-esteem can affect how you see yourself, navigate relationships, and make decisions about your life. You may find yourself questioning your worth, being overly critical of yourself, seeking reassurance from others, or feeling that you need to meet certain expectations to be enough. Therapy can help you explore where these beliefs and patterns developed and how they continue to shape the way you relate to yourself. Together, we'll work toward understanding yourself with greater compassion, recognizing your needs and strengths, and loosening the hold of self-critical thoughts. My hope is to help you build a more trusting, accepting relationship with yourself so you can make choices based on your values rather than fear of judgment or not being enough.
