Self Esteem
Ashley Paulson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CHt
A common limiting belief many people struggle with is not feeling good enough. I help adults let go of their limiting beliefs and step into empowering beliefs about themselves. I often engage clients in various strategies to release these beliefs during sessions.

Self Esteem
Farrah Bonde
Registered Social Worker, LISW
Therapy to improve self-esteem is a valuable process that helps individuals recognize and challenge negative thought patterns that undermine their self-worth. Through various therapeutic approaches, clients learn to identify their strengths, set realistic goals, and develop healthier coping strategies. Therapy provides a supportive environment where individuals can explore underlying issues, such as perfectionism or past traumas, that may contribute to low self-esteem.

Self Esteem
Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Self-esteem shapes how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how confidently we move through life. When self-esteem is low, people often struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, fear of judgment, or feeling “not enough,” even when they are capable and accomplished. These patterns are often learned over time and reinforced at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with self-esteem is personalized and respectful. Rather than focusing solely on positive thinking, hypnosis helps address the underlying beliefs and emotional responses that influence how individuals perceive themselves. Sessions are tailored to each client’s goals and life experience, supporting the development of healthier self-perception, confidence, and emotional resilience.
Clients often seek hypnosis for self-esteem when long-standing patterns persist despite insight or effort. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that allows clients to remain aware and in control while gently reinforcing more supportive beliefs and behaviors.
This work is offered as a supportive tool for personal growth and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and self-accepting.

Self Esteem
Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
How do we come into confidence? One of the first questions I ask my clients is "what does confidence mean to you?" It never ceases to amaze me that each of us has a slightly different definition. What if your definition really doesn't have much to do with it at all? Everything I have learned as a certified professional Holistic Life Coach turned my own definition on it's head. I invite you to share with me what self esteem and confidence mean to you so that we can start to explore how you see yourself and your relation to others. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement the therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I have a toolkit of fun methods and approaches to self esteem designed to help you question your own assumptions, internal unconscious agreements, and unacknowledged (perhaps limiting) beliefs to get to a place of awareness and insight—the place where confidence truly lives.

Self Esteem
Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
Many of us struggle with a poor self-esteem. The sense that somehow we aren't good enough, or that we don't deserve the good things in life. The roots of poor self-esteem, the wounds, were formed in during the childhood years and continue to negatively impact our lives as adults. Through the use of Internal Family Systems, these early childhood wounds can be addressed and healed, allowing us to gain a positive sense of Self.
