Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Low self esteem and a poor self image, which can get to a point for some people of self-hatred, erodes your life. In spite of achievements, you never feel good enough, and can't feel truly at peace. Because poor self esteem is often a lifelong problem, it can be very hard to resolve on your own. It is often related to trauma in childhood. When I work with clients who struggle with low self esteem, I want to understand how they came to the belief that they are generally not good enough. We also will look at how habits of thought, feeling, behavior, and self care may be reinforcing a negative self image, and work on making changes so a positive self image can be reinforced instead.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in self-esteem.
Low self-esteem is rarely fixed by encouragement. It can persist through real accomplishment, showing up as a chronic sense of inadequacy, shame that arrives without an occasion, harsh self-criticism you would never direct at anyone else, or the conviction that you are fundamentally not enough regardless of evidence. Many people describe feeling like an imposter in a life they built themselves.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we do not try to argue you into a better opinion of yourself. That voice carries an unconscious logic worth understanding: it came from somewhere, served some purpose, and often speaks in words that once belonged to someone else. In sessions we trace where it originated and what it has been protecting you from. As it becomes recognizable as something you absorbed rather than something you are, it tends to lose authority.
If you have been carrying a low opinion of yourself for as long as you can remember, I would be glad to talk.
