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
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.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Have you ever wondered why you feel like you’re not enough—no matter how hard you try? You accomplish, serve, achieve, and still sense a quiet ache of inadequacy underneath it all. That voice of comparison or guilt keeps whispering, “You should be doing better.”
At Rising Calm Center, we help you understand that voice for what it is—not truth, but a wound. Our Christian counselors walk with you to heal the root causes of shame, perfectionism, and fear, so confidence can grow from the inside out.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We blend biblical identity work with evidence-based therapies—CBT, ACT, IFS, and somatic calming tools—to help you:
• Silence the inner critic and build self-compassion
• Recognize and rewrite the false stories that fuel insecurity
• Strengthen your sense of worth through God’s truth, not performance
• Cultivate boundaries, resilience, and courage in relationships
• Live with calm assurance instead of constant proving
You were never meant to earn your value—it was given. When you begin to see yourself as God does—chosen, capable, and loved—peace replaces striving, and confidence becomes quiet strength.
If you’re ready to rise above self-doubt and walk in steady assurance, we’re here to help you rediscover your God-given worth.
Hope and healing can begin today—call or email for your FREE CONSULTATION.
