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.

Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC
As a therapist specializing in self-esteem building, I help clients reconnect with their inherent worth and challenge the inner critic that distorts their self-image. Low self-esteem often stems from early experiences, societal pressures, or chronic self-doubt—and I guide individuals in rewriting those narratives through compassion, cognitive restructuring, and strengths-based reflection. My approach encourages clients to recognize their value beyond achievements or external validation, fostering a more resilient and authentic sense of self. Confidence isn’t about being perfect—it’s about embracing who you are, flaws and all.

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.

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.
