Self Esteem
Bruce Clark
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Struggling with self-esteem can leave you feeling not good enough or feelings of frequent comparison. Maybe you have low self-esteem in general. Maybe you struggle with imposter syndrome. Regardless, these patterns often run deep, shaped by past experiences and internalized messages. In therapy, I help you explore where these beliefs come from, build self-compassion, and reconnect with a more confident, grounded sense of who you are.

Building Self-Esteem: From Surviving to Thriving
Self-esteem is the foundation of mental health. It influences how we handle stress, how we interact in relationships, and how we pursue our dreams. Our Master’s level, clinically licensed therapists specialize in helping both adults and youth (ages 10+) dismantle the "inner critic" and build a resilient sense of self.
How We Help You Rebuild Worth
We use evidence-based tools to help you or your child move past shame and self-doubt:
Identifying the Root: Through a full clinical assessment, we look at where self-esteem was wounded—whether through trauma, high-conflict family systems, or societal pressure.
Specialized Modalities: We utilize CBT to challenge negative thought patterns, IFS (Internal Family Systems) to understand the "parts" of you that feel "not enough," and Brainspotting to process the deep-seated emotions tied to your identity.
Youth-Focused Engagement: For clients ages 10+, we use specialized interactive software that helps young people explore their identity and strengths in a medium that feels comfortable and engaging.
Our Collaborative Process
Rebuilding self-esteem is a partnership. We don’t just tell you that you are worthy; we help you feel it.
Current Needs Assessment: We determine how low self-esteem is currently impacting your life (e.g., social anxiety, codependency, or lack of motivation).
Goal Setting: We define what "confidence" looks like for you specifically—is it setting a boundary at work? Making a new friend? Trying a new hobby?
Treatment Planning: Together, we discuss the clinical plan to reach those goals, ensuring the pace feels safe and supportive.
The Role of Support & Accessibility
We believe that seeking help for self-worth shouldn't be a source of stress.
The Right Fit: Use our free consultation to meet your therapist and ensure you feel safe and understood.
Convenience: With online therapy and 7-day-a-week scheduling, you can prioritize your growth on your own terms.
Insurance: We accept all Minnesota insurance groups, making high-level clinical care accessible to all.

Self Esteem
Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Self-esteem, self-confidence, self-worth, these are all a little different. Let's talk about how you can use each one of these to build a more resilient you by catching how you talk to yourself and shift to self-talk that is far more accurate. We are going to learn tools and skills for being far kinder to yourself and begin talking to yourself like you'd expect a friend to speak to you.

Self Esteem
Dr. Mary L. Hendrickson
Psychologist, Psy.D.,LP
How we feel about who we are, what we believe about ourselves and how we think about ourselves impacts the relationships we have with others, with ourselves and the choices we make in our lives. If we do not place much value on ourselves, it is difficult to live a fulfilling life.
While working in a therapeutic relationship with a psychologist, you can begin to learn more about how you care for yourself and begin to learn ways to support you in your life.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who struggle with self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or a persistent sense of not feeling “good enough.” Difficulties with self-esteem often reflect internalized expectations and relational experiences that shape how individuals view themselves.
My work is grounded in the belief that self-esteem develops within relationships and emotional history. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a space to explore the origins of self-critical patterns and to understand how they continue to influence present experience. As individuals develop a more nuanced and compassionate understanding of themselves, a more stable sense of self-worth can gradually emerge.
I also work with couples who wish to understand how self-esteem concerns affect communication and intimacy.

Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Our relationship with self is just as important as our relationships with others; in fact, I believe it often informs what we bring to our other relationships. Our work together will explore messages and beliefs about oneself, identifying where these came from, and creating space to develop your own re-branding of sense of self as an adult.
