Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
So many of us are walking around with a running commentary in our heads that we would never say to someone we love. You are not good enough. You do not deserve that. Who do you think you are? That inner critic can be relentless, and over time it shapes the choices you make, the relationships you accept, and the dreams you talk yourself out of before you even try.
You deserve better than that voice. And you do not have to keep living by its rules.
At CCW International, rebuilding self-esteem is at the heart of so much of the work we do. For the women we serve, low self-worth often shows up as over-apologizing, shrinking in rooms where they belong, staying in situations that do not honor them, or tying their value entirely to what they produce or who they take care of. For our veteran clients, it can look like struggling to see their own worth outside of their rank, their role, or their service.
Wherever your self-esteem story began, we help you rewrite it. Through compassionate, evidence-based therapy, we help you challenge the beliefs that have held you back, reconnect with your inherent worth, and start showing up in your own life with the confidence and self-compassion you have always deserved.
You are enough. We just want to help you feel it.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
With so many pressures and impossible standards around us, it can be easy to feel defeated and inadequate. And oftentimes, our minds are so quick to criticize ourselves for any perceived slight. Together, we can work on building your self-esteem by understanding the "rules" and messages you may be holding on tightly to, your unique areas of strength and challenge, and ways to interact with yourself in a more compassionate manner. Low self-esteem is often intertwined with other experiences and challenges that we can disentangle and navigate together.

Eileen Griffin
Psychologist, PsyD
Low self-esteem isn’t always obvious. You may look confident and competent while privately questioning yourself, comparing yourself to everyone else, or feeling like you’re somehow falling short. You may be relentlessly hard on yourself, constantly seeking reassurance, or have learned to measure your worth by how useful, successful, easygoing, or needed you are. Therapy can help you examine where those beliefs came from, understand the standards you’ve been holding yourself to, and develop a more grounded sense of who you are that isn’t dependent on constantly proving your worth.

Kisha Winston-Watkins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C, MBA
The way you see yourself deeply influences how you show up in the world. When your self‑view is negative or uncertain, it can hold you back from living your best life, pursuing your purpose, and feeling confident in your relationships, decisions, and identity.
In my practice, I offer a safe, supportive space to explore how self‑esteem challenges impact your daily life and where these beliefs come from. Together, we uncover the root causes, address the patterns that keep you stuck, and develop healthier, more compassionate ways of seeing and embracing yourself. My goal is to help you build confidence, strengthen your sense of worth, and learn to love every part of who you are.

Self Esteem
Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Shame and fluctuating self-esteem can often stem from recurrent emotional traumas sustained across development, and in a range of contexts. I will work with you to identity how shame shows up in your life, and contributes to intense and persistently held beliefs about yourself, others, and the world around you. Working at a pace that feels manageable to you, we will explore the root cause(s) of shame in the present, and how to change the way you "speak" to yourself internally.

Dr. Felicia Fisher-Green
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I help clients examine the experiences and messages that have shaped the way they evaluate themselves and identify patterns that make their worth feel conditional. Therapy can help you develop a more stable sense of self that is not dependent solely on performance, productivity, finances, or external approval.
