Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address issues of self-esteem with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward a healthier sense of self-worth. Recognizing the significance of understanding one's identity in Christ, I incorporate biblical teachings on love, purpose, and the inherent value of each person. Through therapy sessions that may include prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's perspective, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of low self-esteem and develop strategies for building a positive self-image. Encouraging reliance on God's unconditional love and acceptance, I empower individuals to overcome negative thought patterns and embrace their true identity within the context of their Christian faith, fostering a renewed sense of self-esteem and confidence.

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.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Self esteem reprogramming is at the heart of almost all of my hypnotherapy. We literally install new hardware, and build our hypnotic commands around this, along with a full spectrum of other modalities that work to uncover old, erroneous belief systems and reframe them with newly desired and healthy alternatives. We may, for instance, regress you to the root cause memory in order to give the inner child a chance to authentically express their true feelings. With the release of emotions and words that have been suppressed for far too long, comes liberation and the path forward again. We then rebuild and may use visualizations and breathwork to the future that becomes your reality where you are confidently free and self-assured and in a state of peace under all circumstances.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults build healthy self-esteem, greater self-confidence, and a stronger sense of self-worth. Many individuals struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, negative self-talk, body image concerns, or feelings of not being "good enough." These challenges can affect relationships, career success, emotional well-being, and overall life satisfaction. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion practices, and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, recognize their strengths, develop self-acceptance, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate view of themselves. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and capable of living in alignment with their values and goals.
