Self Esteem
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.

Self Esteem
Mary Mesiha
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.

Tin Huang
Pre-Licensed Professional, PsyD
My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, creating a safe space where you can openly explore self-doubt and negative self-talk without fear. I have extensive experience helping individuals cultivate a stronger, more authentic sense of self-worth and overcome the challenges of low self-esteem. Together, we'll identify the roots of your self-esteem struggles, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and build practical strategies to foster genuine self-acceptance and confidence. I also recognize that cultural messages, societal pressures, and systemic factors often play a significant role in shaping our self-perception. Through this informed and supportive partnership, I empower clients to embrace their true value, set healthy boundaries, and live a life aligned with their authentic self.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults seeking to build self-esteem, confidence, and self-compassion. I help clients explore internalized self-criticism, negative beliefs, and relational patterns that may undermine their sense of worth, while supporting them in developing a more authentic and empowering relationship with themselves.
I integrate trauma-informed, parts-based, and somatic approaches to help clients recognize strengths, regulate emotions, and cultivate resilience. Therapy emphasizes self-understanding, empowerment, and practical strategies for nurturing confidence and self-trust in everyday life.

Self Esteem
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Self Esteem refers to how we feel about ourself. Rational emotive behavior therapy and cognitive behavior therapy help individuals recognize the connection between their low self and how their negative beliefs and self talk impact the way they feel about themselves. Once you understand the thought-feeling connection, you will learn a variety of ways to change the way you think, feel and act. You will learn to challenge and replace unheatlhy thoughts and beliefs with more desirable one and guided into taking positive steps in your life. Ultimately, you will learn to accept yourself unconditionally with all your strengths AND weaknesess.

Self Esteem
The Becoming Therapy Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT
So many women have spent years shrinking, over-apologizing, and measuring their worth by how well they serve others. We work with women who are ready to reconnect with their own value — not as a mother, a partner, or a caregiver, but as a person. Therapy can help you untangle where those messages came from, quiet the inner critic, and begin showing up with the confidence and self-trust you deserve. You are allowed to take up space.

Self Esteem
Laura Silva, LicMHC - Online/Virtual Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, Traditional, Integrative, Heart Centered counseling. Coach, Educator, Depth Therapy.
There is difference between Self Esteem and Self-Worth, though often used interchangeably. Building positive self esteem is how we evaluate ourselves. It is our internal assessment of our qualities and attributes. We have healthy self esteem when what we think, feel and believe about ourselves is honest and realistic. Unhealthy self esteem can lead to the trap of Narcissism. Low self-esteem is underestimating or ignoring your positive characteristics. Do you tell yourself that you are stupid, lazy, boring, selfish, or generally a bad person because of the things you think, say or do? Through various modalities and new learning, I will help you build skills of positive self-esteem and especially realize your intrinsic value, goodness and capabilities i.e. your Self-Worth.
