Self Esteem
Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I immediately see so many strengths and wonderful things about the people I meet in my work, and they have such difficulty seeing it in themselves. I assist in reframing negative and irrational beliefs and false narratives, and giving an objective third party perspective to bring you back to center. We explore the origins of these negative self-statements and develop ways to form new belief systems, based on your idiosyncratic talents and skills. Everyone has something great about them, but comparison destroys this feeling (and typically, people compare in ways that make them feel worse rather than better.)

Self Esteem
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!

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Keri Downs specializes in helping children, adolescents, and young adults build and maintain healthy self-esteem. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to address the complex factors that influence self-esteem, including personal experiences, societal pressures, and emotional well-being.
Self-esteem is a critical aspect of mental health, affecting how individuals perceive themselves and their abilities.

She also integrates mindfulness practices to promote self-acceptance and reduce the impact of external pressures.
Dr. Downs’s approach is tailored to each client’s unique needs, ensuring personalized care that fosters a positive self-image and confidence. She creates a supportive and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can explore their self-perceptions and develop healthier, more empowering beliefs about themselves.
In addition to in-person sessions, Dr. Downs offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Her goal is to empower clients to achieve greater self-confidence and lead more fulfilling lives through compassionate and collaborative therapy.

Self Esteem
Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
There are times we have had experiences or interactions that have dampened the way we see ourselves. So often our inner voice is quite negative and judgemental. Through therapy, we will examine what your self-esteem is based on, where it needs strengthening, and how to shore up your coping skills, self-talk, and sense of self.
