Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CPC
As a provider being encouraging with positive self-talk and affirmations can help boost their self-confidence.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Over the course of my extensive career working with clients, I have come to recognize a central theme that underpins many psychological conditions: the pervasive belief that one is "not good enough." It's these negative thoughts, deeply ingrained, that often serve as the bedrock of depression and anxiety. Yet, the undeniable truth is that you are inherently perfect and complete just as you are in this very moment. There's no need to strive for greater wealth, slimmer physique, heightened intelligence, or increased affluence to be deserving and inherently worthy.
My approach to bolstering your self-esteem is highly personalized, crafted to align with your unique personality and life circumstances. As a neuropsychologist, I possess the expertise to help you uncover blind spots and confront those negative core beliefs that may be eroding your self-esteem. Together, we embark on the journey of rewiring your brain with more empowering thought patterns. This multifaceted approach may incorporate various therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, thought conditioning, cognitive restructuring, assertiveness training, problem-solving strategies, and honing your social skills. Throughout this transformative process, I will impart specific tools and techniques designed to fortify your self-esteem, drawing upon practices such as affirmations, mindfulness, meditation, visualization, and positive self-talk. Our collaborative efforts aim to empower you with heightened self-esteem and a profound sense of self-efficacy, ultimately paving the way for a life filled with inner joy and tranquility.
