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.

Self-esteem can be shaped by the many messages we receive that tell us we're not good enough. We help you untangle those messages from your innate goodness and loveability. Through a somatic approach, we support you in reconnecting with your own needs, strengths, and sense of self-worth.

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.

Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Self-esteem is the opinion you have of yourself. When you have healthy self-esteem, you tend to think positively about yourself, and optimistically about life in general. People with healthy self-esteem know that they are valuable, and will be able to name at least some of their positive qualities, such as “I am a good friend”, “I am kind”, “I am honest”, or “I am a good father”.
When you have low self-esteem, you tend to see yourself, the world, and your future more negatively and critically. You might feel anxious, sad, low, or unmotivated. When you encounter challenges, you may doubt whether you will be able to rise to them. You might talk to yourself harshly in your mind, telling yourself things like “You’re stupid”, “You’ll never manage this”, or “I don’t amount to anything”.
Your self-esteem affects how you live your life, but it is fragile. If you have low self-esteem, you might be always trying to please other people, or go ‘above and beyond’ at work or with your friends and family. As long as you keep meeting these standards you may feel OK, but there will inevitably be times when it’s not possible to do so, and this can quickly leave you feeling low and anxious.
Self-esteem exists on a spectrum. Some people with low self-esteem find that it only affects them with certain people, or in certain situations. Other people find that their self-esteem colors everything they do.
Therapy can help rebuild your self worth and help you live a more meaningful and authentic life.
