Audrey Stempel, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Many neurodiverse children struggle with a negative core belief that manifests as "I am not good enough" or "I'm not worthy." They carry this negative self image often due to their struggles with their peers, their attention, their organization or if someone once told them they are "weird." They need to learn how to find the positive in themselves and take pride in their uniqueness.

Mira Cymerman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self esteem sometimes manifests as a quiet, persistent doubt, with the sense that you are not quite enough, even when factual evidence suggests otherwise. During our sessions, we can discuss where these thoughts and feelings began. Rather than chasing confidence as a destination, we will focus on building an honest, authentic relationship with yourself, one where your worth is not up for debate every time you make a mistake or fall short of your goal. The idea is to trust your own voice again, and to start treating yourself with kindness.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Struggling with low self-esteem can feel like living with an internal critic that never shuts down, constantly telling you that you aren’t smart, capable, or worthy enough. I help individuals break free from this painful cycle of self-doubt and people-pleasing so they can build genuine, lasting self-worth. In our work, we utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS) to compassionately understand the protective parts of you that carry deep feelings of inadequacy, while Narrative Therapy helps you rewrite the old, limiting stories you’ve been told about your value. Alongside this deeper exploration, I weave in practical CBT and DBT tools to help you quiet negative self-talk, set firm boundaries, and practice daily self-compassion. Together, we will work to shift your relationship with yourself from chronic self-criticism to a steady, quiet confidence in who you truly are.
