Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You can be accomplished, capable, and caring—and still quietly struggle with feeling like you're not enough. Self-esteem challenges don’t always shout; sometimes, they whisper through perfectionism, people-pleasing, overachievement, or the sense that you’re constantly falling short. Many of my clients wrestle with imposter syndrome—feeling like a fraud despite clear evidence of their success. It doesn’t have to stay that way. If your inner critic has been running the show, therapy can help you reconnect with a more realistic, compassionate view of yourself.
At The Momentum Practice, I work with high-achieving professionals and emerging adults who are ready to understand where these patterns began and how to shift them. Together, we’ll explore how early life dynamics—like high expectations, emotional invalidation, or being praised only for achievement—may still shape how you see yourself. We'll also examine how systems of oppression and societal messages around race, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, productivity, and other aspects of identity can erode your sense of worth, even when you’ve done everything ‘right’ to succeed despite them.
This is a space where all parts of you are welcome. We’ll work to quiet the self-doubt, build insight, and strengthen your self-trust—so that confidence isn’t just something you perform, but something you actually feel. With over 15 years of experience, I offer a collaborative, affirming space to help you rewrite your internal narrative from self-criticism to self-respect. If you're ready to feel more at home in your own mind, I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self-esteem grows from understanding yourself rather than constantly judging yourself. Therapy can help you recognize unhelpful beliefs, develop self-compassion, and build confidence grounded in your values instead of unrealistic expectations or external validation.

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.

When a person feels they have no fundamental value and worth, they frequently give up. Learning about the fundamental value and worth that every single human being has as Image Bearers of God can change the whole outlook on life.
