Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Self esteem is a the root of many mental health problems: social and other forms of anxiety, depression, harmful relationship choices and sexual confidence to name a few. Whether it is home life or media that instills the ideal of perfect, or provides just a few limited acceptable options on how to be, the ramifications can be lifelong. Therapy is a safe space to better understand and explore yourself and develop certainty in who you are, as well as being a supportive therapeutic relationship to better inform you of who and what are you supports outside of the therapy room.

Philadelphia Art Therapy Associates
Art Therapist, MA, ATR-BC, LPC
There are several ways you can wind up with low self-esteem, but this is one of our specialty areas, so we can help! Were key caregivers judgmental or critical? Did you face performance challenges out of your control like ADHD, learning differences or Autism that made you feel as though you couldn't measure up? Did you have a sibling you competed with? A trauma? What else? Regardless, feeling unlovable, unworthy, or less-than weighs on your present wellness, impacts your decision-making, and can cause depression or anxiety. We will create a safe, nonjudgmental space in which you can use art-making and discussion to explore self-perceptions, release and heal long-standing negative feelings, and then use CBT concepts to decrease the negative perceptions and self-talk. You'll earn new positive thought patterns and behaviors to help you shed the old skin of low self-esteem and move forward boldly with greater contentment.

Dr. Amana Carvalho
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Therapy helps with self-esteem issues by identifying and challenging negative self-beliefs, often rooted in negative/traumatic past experiences or criticism. I support clients in building self-compassion, setting healthy boundaries, and recognizing their strengths. Over time, this leads to improved confidence, emotional resilience, and a more positive self-image. I help clients learn to love and appreciate themselves more.

It is easy to feel down on ourselves. When we're down on ourselves, it's important to stop and reflect. One of my strengths is helping clients do this. I will ask thoughtful questions that generate insight and new thoughts, and we will work together to help you feel better.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Whether it is imposter syndrome in a school or workplace setting or lacking confidence in a social context, many individuals struggle with self esteem at some point in their lives. I have extensive experience working with individuals to improve their overall self confidence and self esteem. I often pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify how we can make changes to thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that may be at the root of lower self esteem.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You’ve done everything they said would make you feel worthy—and you still don’t feel like enough.
You’re successful, high-achieving, and capable. People rely on you. You’ve built a life that looks great on the outside. But inside? You’re quietly questioning your worth, overthinking everything, and stuck in a loop of self-doubt you can’t seem to shake.
This isn’t low confidence. It’s the impact of burnout, narcissistic abuse, emotional neglect, and years of proving your value by taking care of everyone else first.
I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed psychologist and certified coach with over 25 years of experience helping high-functioning women reclaim their self-worth after years of toxic relationships, gaslighting, and people-pleasing patterns. Whether you’re dealing with the long-term effects of a narcissistic partner, perfectionistic burnout, or simply feel like you’ve lost yourself, I’m here to help you come back home to the woman you were always meant to be.
You might be asking yourself:
“Why do I keep attracting people who make me question myself?”
“How can I be so capable and still feel so insecure?”
“Why do I feel guilty for setting boundaries or saying no?”
“How did I lose myself trying to keep the peace?”
“Can I rebuild my confidence after years of being emotionally torn down?”
Yes. You can.

Reconnect with your identity outside of what you do or who you take care of
Heal your nervous system and stop living in a constant state of over-functioning

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Our inner assessment of ourselves is hugely important in how we carry meaning in our life. If we hate ourselves or feel chronic failure and disappointment, we are usually not living at the peak of our ability.

Gabrielle Rocchino
Psychologist, PhD
My approach to therapy is flexible to meet the unique needs of each person and is grounded in the goal for you to feel deserving of connection, clarity and a fulfilled life. In my work with clients, we co-create a space where you feel supported in your navigation of challenges and stuck points, and celebrated for your wins and opportunities for pride. My practice centers on self-compassion and defining empowerment, which I believe to be valuable tools to help you identify your values and traverse concerns like trauma, invalidating interpersonal histories, challenging relationships, anxiety, self-worth, and depression.
