Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Struggles with self-esteem can take many forms: from harsh self-criticism to difficulty trusting your own voice. I work with clients to understand where these patterns come from and to foster a more compassionate, confident sense of self.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Everyone struggles with self-esteem at times. It’s easy to compare yourself to others or feel like you’re not measuring up—especially in a world that constantly sets unrealistic expectations. These feelings don’t mean something is wrong with you; they’re part of being human. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand where these beliefs come from and begin to build a more balanced, compassionate view of yourself. Over time, you can learn to feel more confident, capable, and at peace with who you are.

Valentina Verani, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Self-esteem isn't something you suddenly find—it's something you build. It develops through the experiences you have, the challenges you overcome, and the promises you keep to yourself over time. It grows each time you choose courage over fear, self-compassion over self-criticism, and authenticity over people-pleasing.
Together, we'll explore the beliefs that have shaped how you see yourself, quiet the inner critic, and help you reconnect with your strengths and values. The goal isn't to become someone else—it's to grow into the version of yourself your younger self would be proud of. While confidence develops through experience, you don't have to wait to step into your own power. Therapy can help you begin that journey today.
