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.

Self Esteem
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients build their self-esteem and repair their self view - something that has likely been destroyed by society and feedback from others about their value and worth. Unfortunately, we live in a culture that does not value people equally. Even highly successful individuals can have a vulnerable self-view that gets activated with setbacks, mistakes, or rejection. If you've found your self-esteem plummeting from time to time, it might be worth investigating what's going on at a deeper level.

Self Esteem
Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have been struggling with self-esteem issues and the challenges that this can lead to in their mood, relationships, sense of competence at school or work, and sense of identity. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Self Esteem
Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Building healthy self-esteem is the foundation of how you value and see yourself, shaping your confidence, decisions, and relationships. I work with clients to help them recognize their worth, challenge negative self-beliefs, silence their inner critic, and develop a stronger, more confident sense of self. Together, we focus on creating lasting inner strength so you can show up more fully in your life and relationships.
