Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
Low self-esteem can quietly shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want. Therapy can help you examine the experiences and internalized messages that have contributed to self-doubt while developing a more compassionate and grounded relationship with yourself. The goal is not to force yourself to “think positively,” but to build a sense of self that feels more secure and authentic.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Self-esteem issues can derive from being (or being labeled) an outsider, from failing to meet one's own expectations (or the expectations of a partner or other loved one), or experiencing events that make you question your worth.
Therapy can help you understand how these patterns developed, examine beliefs about what makes you worthy, and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with yourself. The goal is not to view yourself as flawless, but to build a more stable sense of worth that can withstand mistakes, limitations, change, and other people’s judgments.

Brittany Washington
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I specialize in helping individuals build and strengthen their self-esteem by addressing the underlying beliefs and patterns that impact their sense of self-worth. Through a compassionate, client-centered approach, I work with clients to explore how past experiences, societal expectations, and internalized narratives may have shaped their self-perception. By using techniques like compassion-focused therapy and narrative therapy, I help clients develop healthier, more empowering views of themselves, fostering greater self-acceptance, confidence, and resilience. My goal is to guide individuals in embracing their inherent worth and stepping into their full potential.

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!

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
With so many pressures and impossible standards around us, it can be easy to feel defeated and inadequate. And oftentimes, our minds are so quick to criticize ourselves for any perceived slight. Together, we can work on building your self-esteem by understanding the "rules" and messages you may be holding on tightly to, your unique areas of strength and challenge, and ways to interact with yourself in a more compassionate manner. Low self-esteem is often intertwined with other experiences and challenges that we can disentangle and navigate together.
