Self Esteem
Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PLMFT
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.

Self Esteem
Jarrece Patrick
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
Struggling with low self-esteem can affect every part of your life, from relationships to career to personal happiness. I work with clients to explore the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that shape how they see themselves and to develop practical strategies for building confidence, self-compassion, and resilience. Using a supportive, evidence-based approach, I help clients challenge negative self-perceptions and cultivate a stronger, more empowered sense of self. Together, we create a safe space where you can grow, thrive, and embrace your worth.

Self Esteem

Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Self-esteem can be a tenuous experience that is constantly at risk if we define ourselves by success/failure.

Self Esteem
Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with individuals seeking to build self-esteem from a trauma-informed and relational perspective. Low self-esteem often develops in response to invalidation, relational stress, or chronic pressure to meet others’ expectations, rather than reflecting inherent worth. In therapy, we explore the origins of self-critical patterns, the ways you may have adapted to survive, and how these patterns show up in relationships, work, and self-care.
Our work focuses on cultivating self-compassion, strengthening boundaries, and reconnecting with your values and strengths. Therapy becomes a space to practice self-trust, challenge internalized messages, and develop sustainable ways of relating to yourself that honor your inherent dignity and resilience.

Self Esteem
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who appear capable and put together but carry a quiet, persistent sense of not being enough. This can look like self‑criticism, difficulty trusting your own judgment, comparing yourself to others, downplaying your own needs or accomplishments, or feeling like you are always falling short of who you are supposed to be. Many of the adults I see have spent years meeting expectations, supporting others, or performing well in work or school while privately feeling inadequate, invisible, or unsure of their worth.
Low self‑esteem often develops in environments where your needs were minimized, where you were praised for being responsible or easy, or where you learned to stay small to avoid conflict or disappointment. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself, how you move through relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want.
In our work together, we explore the origins of these beliefs and how they show up in your body, emotions, and daily life. We look at the roles you have carried, the expectations you have internalized, and the parts of you that are tired of feeling not enough. The goal is not to create artificial confidence but to help you develop a more grounded, accurate sense of yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice. Supporting people who have learned to minimize themselves or feel “not enough” is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve worked to hold things together.
