Ashley Paulson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LIMHP, CHt
A common limiting belief many people struggle with is not feeling good enough. I help adults let go of their limiting beliefs and step into empowering beliefs about themselves. I often engage clients in various strategies to release these beliefs during sessions.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals develop a steadier sense of worth and self-respect. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—shame, self-criticism, and the standards you carry—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less harshness and doubt, more confidence, choice, and the capacity to stand with yourself even under stress.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Low self-esteem can make it difficult to trust yourself, express your needs, or feel deserving of love and success. In therapy, we’ll explore the experiences and beliefs that shaped how you see yourself and begin to build a healthier, more confident inner foundation. Through insight, self-compassion, and mindfulness, you can learn to replace self-criticism with acceptance and courage—helping you feel more comfortable in your own skin and empowered in your choices.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Low self esteem and a poor self image, which can get to a point for some people of self-hatred, erodes your life. In spite of achievements, you never feel good enough, and can't feel truly at peace. Because poor self esteem is often a lifelong problem, it can be very hard to resolve on your own. It is often related to trauma in childhood. When I work with clients who struggle with low self esteem, I want to understand how they came to the belief that they are generally not good enough. We also will look at how habits of thought, feeling, behavior, and self care may be reinforcing a negative self image, and work on making changes so a positive self image can be reinforced instead.

Lincoln is home to the University of Nebraska and serves as Nebraska's state capital, giving it a demographic character — young, educated, and government-oriented — that generates consistent demand for therapists working with academic stress, young adult identity, and the pressures of public service careers. The city has a growing Sudanese, Somali, and Latino refugee and immigrant community that creates meaningful demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists who work with resettlement stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Bryan Health and CHI Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Lincoln's relative affordability and tight-knit community character give it a therapy culture that values accessibility and practical, evidence-based approaches.
