HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Self esteem is an inside job. Most of us have made up stories of ourselves to keep us safe from disappointment, failure, rejection, etc. And, unless we take risk and take uncomfortable action, we will stay stuck as a victim with a story to prove we are right. Staying safe and comfortable does nothing positive for our self-esteem. This is where I find it useful to push people a bit from more of a coaching perspective to hold people accountable in taking action in ways they are going to act differently to get the results they want, and by when did you say?

Dr. Heather Sheets
Psychologist, PsyD
How you see yourself shapes how you move through the world. When self-esteem is low, you may question your decisions, compare yourself to others, struggle to recognize your strengths, or feel that you are never quite enough. You may appear confident and successful on the outside while privately struggling with self-doubt, criticism, or the fear of disappointing others.
I work with individuals to understand the beliefs and experiences that have shaped the way they see themselves. Together, we explore the core beliefs that may be contributing to self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, insecurity, or self-sabotaging patterns.
Using cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, narrative psychology, and a strength-based approach, I help you examine the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and choices. We work to identify patterns that no longer serve you, challenge negative or limiting beliefs, and develop a more balanced and compassionate understanding of yourself.
Building self-esteem isn't about convincing yourself that everything is perfect or becoming someone you're not. It's about developing a more grounded sense of who you are—recognizing both your strengths and your vulnerabilities without allowing either to define your worth.
We can also explore how your self-esteem affects your relationships, career, parenting, and the decisions you make about your life. My goal is to help you become less dependent on external validation and more confident in your own values, judgment, and sense of self.
You don't have to become a different person to feel better about yourself. Therapy can help you reconnect with the person you already are, challenge the beliefs that have held you back, and build a life that feels more authentic, confident, and fulfilling.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self-esteem is something everyone struggles with from time to time. My belief is that it comes from childhood messages from both environmental and caregiving factors. I am positive that through talking and working through these factors that patients can find relief and new perspectives on their self-esteem and self-worth

Jill Verofsky
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Self-esteem isn't about repeating empty positive affirmations in the mirror until you magically feel like a winner. It is your subjective evaluation of your own worth, and when it's built entirely on external validation, it collapses the moment things go sideways.
