Self Esteem
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.

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.

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.

Self Esteem
Dr. Munazza Abraham
Psychologist, PhD
My work around self-esteem centers on identifying and challenging internalized negative beliefs shaped by early experiences and systemic messaging. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we restructure distorted thinking patterns and build more balanced, affirming self-perceptions. I approach self-worth as something reclaimed and reinforced through both mindset shifts and lived experience.
Together, we’ll unpack and challenge internalized messages, build coping skills to navigate life’s ups and downs, and strengthen your capacity to live in alignment with your values and self-defined purpose. My practice emphasizes that “Community is medicine” with my creation of therapy groups to increase your sense of belonging and enhance collective healing. I also tap into ancestral knowledge, holistic and evidence-based practices, and the arts, all combined with your interests to tailor your healing experience.

Self Esteem
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.

Julie Harris
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Many of us carry an inner critic that compares, judges, and tells us that we’re not good enough. Sometimes that voice inside is so loud it can be hard to function well which makes that critic even louder! I help people explore the roots of this negative self talk with curiosity and compassion — understanding where it comes from and reconnecting with the inner strengths and gifts they naturally possess.

Self Esteem
Aysha Wells
Counselor/Therapist, LGPC
How you see yourself can shape how you show up in your relationships, work, and everyday life. I help clients explore self-doubt, negative self-talk, comparison, people-pleasing, and the pressure to feel “good enough.” Together, we work on building self-awareness, challenging limiting beliefs, practicing self-compassion, and developing a more supportive relationship with yourself. My goal is to help you recognize your worth without needing perfection, external validation, or constant reassurance to feel confident in who you are.
