Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I support clients who struggle with self-esteem, self-doubt, and a persistent sense of not feeling “enough,” even when life looks stable or successful on the outside. Many of the clients I work with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and capable individuals who have learned to be self-critical in order to succeed, but find that inner voice of criticism difficult to turn off.
Low self-esteem can show up in many ways- difficulty trusting yourself, second-guessing decisions, people-pleasing, comparing yourself to others, or feeling undeserving of rest, success, or healthy relationships. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself and how you move through the world.
In therapy, we work together to understand where these beliefs came from, including past experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and internalized messages about worth and value. Alongside this deeper exploration, we also focus on building practical tools to challenge self-critical thoughts and create new, more balanced ways of relating to yourself.
My goal is to help you develop a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself- one where your worth is not dependent on performance, approval, or productivity, but rooted in a more stable and grounded sense of who you are.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
*Free Consultation* Loving ourselves is one of the hardest things to do, but it is also one of the most vital. Everything in life builds upon your relationship with yourself, so it is important to build a strong foundation of self-love and self-confidence from which to grow. Together, we can build awareness around false beliefs you may hold about yourself - "I'm not good enough." "I'm unworthy." "I'm unlovable." - and then we can work to challenge that faulty thinking in order to rewrite a more compassionate and truthful narrative, in which you are able to thrive. I offer a 15 min free consultation, so please reach out to see if we're a good fit!

Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
Self-esteem and shame deeply influence how you see yourself and connect with others. When these areas are impacted by early experiences or internalized social messages, they can lead to self-doubt, perfectionism, and harsh self-criticism. In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive space to uncover the roots of these patterns and replace them with self-acceptance and confidence.
Together, we’ll explore how past experiences and beliefs have shaped your self-view and learn practical ways to shift them. Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion work, you’ll begin to build a stronger sense of worth and emotional resilience.
My approach is affirming, empathetic, and client-centered. I’ll help you move beyond shame, develop a more balanced self-image, and embrace your authentic self with confidence.
