Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
How we think and feel about ourselves can influence all aspects of our lives, including our work and relationships. When we sit with feelings of shame and name our internal criticisms, we can finally move towards more healthy, loving and compassion views of our ourselves. I hope to help you better understand where your self esteem issues stem from and build unconditional acceptance for all the parts of you.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Lack of self-esteem is probably the most common by-product of the modern society in which an individual is considered the sole architect of one’s life. To improve self-esteem, one has to understand the gap between the ideal and the real. In psychotherapy, one has to realize the degree to which these ideals can be converged and, sometimes, with the help of the therapist, the client understands that this ideal is not their ideal, but a projection caused by family, society, culture, etc. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Denisa Zitnansky Caceres
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Struggles with self-esteem can be present at any age. Believing you are not good enough or worth it can impact your life in various ways. Learning ways to improve our self-worth can feel very overwhelming, especially if you don't believe you deserve it. Therapy can help by gaining insight and understanding of those core beliefs and beginning by questioning them.

Through inner-child work and re-parenting we will enhance self-esteem by both acknowledging your most vulnerable aspects (the child), and through protecting it through your inner parent. By healing oneself through oneself we will understand the true inner strength inside each of us which will enhance our self-esteem.

Lori Ralko
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.A., RSW
Recently, I was watching a video clip of Brene Brown, the renowned social worker and shame researcher. She talked about empathy as the antidote to shame. Whereas shame that is hidden is permitted to grow and thrive, shame that is shared with an understanding and empathic ear has the opportunity to transform. My hope is that if you're struggling with negative feelings about yourself, you'll be able to share your thoughts and feelings with me when you feel safe to do so.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you feel like an imposter? Do you secretly fear that you're not good enough? Do you worry that your true self is unlovable? Did you know that these feelings often stem from past attachment wounds and the self-protective strategies we often develop to avoid additional emotional pain? Sometimes, these strategies become resistant to change, and what was once helpful becomes harmful. Using integrative therapy techniques from a foundation of emotion focused therapy our therapists are trained to help you get to the root of your self-esteem issues so that you can grow into feeling and being your best self. Contact us today for a free consultation to help us match you to the right therapist for your unique needs.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
We often hold stuck concepts of ourselves as problematic or not good enough. Our minds may focus on thoughts, feelings, and stories, that seem to confirm we are not good enough, unloveable, or unworthy in some way. The danger is when we define ourselves by these beliefs. In psychotherapy we support you to shift your perspective and thought processes. We work to unburden the parts of you that hold these painful beliefs, in order to move towards self-confidence, self-compassion and a feeling of wholeness.

Chris Pankewich
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Masters of Counselling Psychology (MACP)
Self-esteem is all about how we value and perceive ourselves. Connected to that are the standards and expectations we set for ourselves and others. At its core, self-esteem is based on the opinions, beliefs and narrative our minds hold about ourselves, which can feel difficult to change. How we define and measure our self-esteem can deeply affect whether we value ourselves, respect ourselves or even like ourselves. Therapy focused on self-esteem work challenges us to cultivate a deeply personal and meaningful definition of self-esteem, one that is holistic in nature. Once we have done that, we can then set up weekly experiences that ask us to live through that definition.
