Tête Therapy
Counselor/Therapist
Low self-esteem can quietly shape how we see ourselves, make decisions, and relate to others. Together, we examine the beliefs that hold you back and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate sense of self. Therapy becomes a space to rebuild confidence rooted in authenticity and self-respect.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Positive self esteem can feel so out of reach sometimes. Negative self talk is so painful and common, and yet we can still feel so alone in it. I have seen great results using psychodynamic therapy and EMDR in this work. You can develop a more compassionate inner voice. You can start feeling better about yourself.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Struggles with self-esteem often run deeper than confidence alone. You may find yourself questioning your worth, comparing yourself to others, fearing rejection, or feeling overly dependent on external validation. Therapy can help you better understand the experiences and relationships that shaped these beliefs, while building greater self-trust, confidence, and self-compassion.

Self Esteem
Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with self-esteem, I focus first on understanding where disconnection may have taken root—often through early experiences that impacted a person’s sense of worth or belonging. I see low self-esteem not as a personal flaw, but as a sign of deeper ruptures in the relationship to self. Together, we work to rebuild that connection through somatic awareness, parts work, and reflection, while also exploring what it means to treat yourself with care and compassion. Building self-esteem can be both an internal process of reconnection and an external practice—engaging in meaningful action, exploring purpose, and choosing to show up for yourself in new ways.

Self Esteem
Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Low self-esteem often begins in environments where your needs, emotions, or identity were dismissed or criticized. Rather than simply boosting your confidence, we explore the roots of self-doubt and gently repair the internal narratives shaped by past experiences. The goal is not perfection, it is self-trust, self-compassion, and a grounded sense of worth.

Self Esteem
Marina Rozenberg, MD
Therapist, MD
Struggling with low self-esteem can leave you feeling disconnected from your true sense of worth, as if you're constantly seeking validation or feeling like you're not enough. In psychodynamic therapy, we’ll explore the deeper emotional roots of your self-doubt, often linked to past experiences, unmet needs, or critical inner voices. Together, we’ll work to understand these patterns and build a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself. As you gain insight into the underlying causes, you’ll begin to feel more confident and empowered to live authentically, without relying on external approval.

Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Low self-esteem often develops over time through criticism, painful experiences, or the feeling that who you are is somehow not enough. Therapy isn't about convincing you to think more positively, it's about helping you understand where those beliefs came from, soften the voice of self-criticism, and build a more compassionate, confident relationship with yourself.

Self Esteem
Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with coping with self esteem issues can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can explore how your struggles with self esteem impact your happiness and ability to get what you want from life. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Brooklyn is home to one of the most culturally and economically diverse therapy communities in the United States, with practices concentrated in Park Slope, Fort Greene, Crown Heights, and Williamsburg serving an extraordinarily wide range of backgrounds and needs. The borough's large Caribbean, West African, Haitian, and Orthodox Jewish communities drive sustained demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists who understand the intersection of identity, faith, and mental health. Brooklyn's rapid gentrification and rising rents have become significant mental health stressors, and therapists frequently address the grief of displacement experienced by long-term residents alongside the adjustment challenges of newer arrivals. SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University and Maimonides Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources for a borough of nearly three million people.
