Self Esteem
Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
Do you struggle with letting people take advantage of you, expecting you to sacrifice to the point that you barely exist? Do you feel terribly guilty if you say, "no" or change your mind? Are you in a pattern of abuse? There is hope.
Often, messages about self-worth start in childhood. Using evidence-based therapy methods, we'll identify where you learned to accept maltreatment, heal the pain of those experiences, and apply new, positive self-beliefs to the expectations of standards for how others can treat you.

Self Esteem
Claudia Morassutti
Counselor/Therapist, Psicoterapeuta Especialista en Conductas Dependientes, Dependencia Emocional y Terapia de Pareja
La autoestima no consiste únicamente en sentirse bien con uno mismo. Se construye a partir de la forma en que aprendemos a valorarnos, a poner límites y a reconocer nuestras propias necesidades. Cuando ha sido dañada por experiencias de rechazo, abuso emocional, relaciones dependientes o una autoexigencia constante, es frecuente vivir con inseguridad, miedo a decepcionar o la sensación de no ser suficiente.
En terapia te acompaño a comprender el origen de esas creencias, fortalecer la confianza en ti mismo y desarrollar una relación más respetuosa y compasiva contigo. Juntos trabajamos para transformar la crítica interna, recuperar tu capacidad de elegir desde tus propios valores y construir una autoestima sólida, basada en quién eres y no únicamente en lo que haces o en la aprobación de los demás.

San José is Costa Rica's capital and the urban center of one of Central America's most stable and educated nations, with a mental health landscape shaped by the city's large expat retirement community, growing ecotourism workforce, and a professional class with relatively high awareness of psychological well-being. English-language therapy is accessible, with a number of bilingual practitioners available to serve the significant US, Canadian, and European expat population alongside local Costa Rican clients. Common therapy concerns include relationship and family issues, expat adjustment, anxiety, and the stresses of building a life in a country that, while welcoming, requires significant cultural adaptation. The Universidad de Costa Rica has a strong psychology faculty that trains many of the city's therapists, and private practice is the dominant model for therapy in San José.
