Self Esteem
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Low self-esteem doesn’t always look like insecurity—it can show up as chronic self-doubt, imposter syndrome, perfectionism, or the quiet belief that you’re never quite “enough.” Whether you're navigating a personal transition, professional pressure, or long-standing patterns of self-criticism, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you rebuild a more grounded and compassionate sense of self.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to address the core beliefs and behavioral patterns that sustain low self-worth. We’ll explore how early experiences, internalized narratives, and current stressors shape your self-concept—and develop practical tools to challenge distortions, clarify values, and build authentic confidence. For clients managing high-functioning anxiety or perfectionism, I also offer targeted psychoeducation and values-based decision support.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly struggling behind a polished exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that honors your history and equips you for growth.

Michael Keigher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
If your inner voice is more mean girl than mentor, therapy can help rewrite the script. I help clients build self-worth that isn’t based on productivity, perfectionism, or performance. You deserve to feel good about who you are — not just who you’re trying to become.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many clients struggle with a pervasive feeling of not being good enough, which makes it challenging for them to live life authentically and form meaningful and vulnerable connections with others.
