Kirk Shelton

Low self-esteem doesn’t define you, it’s something we can work through together. I help clients identify and shift negative self-beliefs, build confidence, and establish a more authentic sense of self through person-centered therapy and practical tools like CBT.

Dr. Leigh Anne Randa
Psychologist, PhD
Good self-esteem is often grounded in supportive and nurturing relationships. When our self-esteem is low, it impacts our ability to function at our full capacity. We become over-critical and lose compassion for self. There is help for conquering self doubt and moving into your most empowered self. Dr. Randa will work with you to implement practical strategies and recommendations to help you raise your eyes to see the value and beauty of who you are.

Benjamin Smalley, TherapyKC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Struggles with self-esteem often run deeper than just “confidence.” They’re shaped by past experiences, relationships, and the way you’ve learned to see yourself over time. Together, we work to understand where those patterns come from and begin shifting the internal narrative. The goal here is to develop sense of self so you can move through life with a stronger, more stable sense of self.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Low self-esteem isn't a personality flaw — it's a learned response to an environment that taught you that you weren't enough. At Simple Empathy we don't just challenge negative self-talk, we go looking for where it came from. Whose voice is that? What did it protect you from? What would it mean to actually believe you were enough — and why does that feel so threatening? Using IFS and Narrative Therapy we do the deeper work that makes self-esteem actually stick instead of just performing confidence until something hard happens and it crumbles.

Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PMFT
Struggles with self-esteem often come from long-standing beliefs about your worth. In therapy, we’ll explore where those beliefs started and begin to gently shift them. I help you build a more grounded and authentic sense of self that feels steady and real.
