Brielle Layden
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self esteem is ever changing as it is always influenced by our external experiences (ie: a new job) as well as our internal experience (ie: negative or positive self talk). I will work with you to develop a healthier self image while working through past experiences that have, or continue to wound your confidence.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Struggles with self-esteem can show up as self-doubt, harsh inner criticism, or a sense of not quite measuring up. In therapy, we’ll explore how these patterns developed and how they continue to shape your thoughts, feelings, and relationships. By building a more grounded and compassionate understanding of yourself, you can begin to relate to yourself with greater confidence and steadiness, rather than constant evaluation.

Loren Soeiro
Psychologist, Ph.D. ABPP
Low self-esteem often develops quietly over time—through criticism, comparison, or experiences that shape how you see yourself. It can show up as hesitation, overachievement, people-pleasing, or chronic self-doubt (even if others would see you as very successful). In therapy, we can examine the origins of these beliefs and notice the ways they continue to influence your choices. The goal is a more realistic, stable sense of self, grounded in self-knowledge rather than external approval.

Katherine Rabinowitz
Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
The site wants me to write a short paragraph on self-esteem. But I have posted a blog on this site as well as a longer version on my own, and if you go to one of those, it will most likely give you the information you're looking for. I'm assuming it's low self-esteem you're having a problem with. Rarely if ever has someone come in with too high self-esteem being a problem. But who knows, maybe someday I will. In the meantime, you can work through your self-esteem issues. Check out the blog posts and see if any of it resonates.

Salvadore Coaching LLC
Life Coach, Holistic Life Coach, Certified Breathwork Instructor, Certified Hypnotist
Low self-esteem often isn’t a lack of ability—it’s a learned relationship with yourself shaped by old experiences, chronic self-criticism, comparison, or the feeling of “not enough.” For many high-functioning people, it can also show up as imposter feelings: the sense that success isn’t truly deserved or that you could be “found out” at any moment. Many people cope by overachieving, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or shrinking their needs to avoid judgment.
In our work together, we identify the beliefs and protective strategies underneath self-doubt and build a steadier form of self-trust. That includes strengthening boundaries, practicing more honest self-talk, working with shame and fear of evaluation, and learning how to take meaningful action even when confidence isn’t fully online. Often, confidence returns as self-trust strengthens. The goal isn’t inflated confidence, but a grounded sense of worth—so you can show up in relationships and in life with greater clarity and a stronger sense of agency and freedom.

Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training & experience ranges from psychotherapy & assessment of adults, couples, & teens to counseling persons with AIDS & survivors of trauma with acute PTSD. Whether you seek to overcome a specific trauma or to break a chronic life pattern, to work toward achieving your purpose, to end or mend a relationship, I will meet you where you are at. Intentionality & a sense of purpose are key to self-esteem. I’m very familiar with its chicken-egg nature. Behavioral change is a critical component to fostering a more uplifting interpersonal environment.

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.

Who wants to feel better?
You, or else you wouldn't be looking at psychotherapists websites. But wait, there's more...maybe you're not sure you can feel better. Maybe you've never been to a psychotherapist before & this is all new to you or was something that "other people" did.

Manhattan is one of the most therapist-dense places in the world, with independent practices concentrated on the Upper West Side, in Chelsea, Midtown, and the East Village, serving an extraordinarily high per-capita demand for mental health care. The borough's concentration of finance, media, law, and healthcare professionals generates consistent demand for therapists experienced with high-stakes careers, perfectionism, and the emotional costs of extreme professional ambition. Manhattan also serves as the entry point for many immigrants from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and West Africa, and multilingual therapists make up a significant portion of the local clinical community. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone, and numerous academic training clinics provide institutional anchors and training pipelines for the borough's large private practice ecosystem.
