Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A, RYT-500, CTP, CSTFP
When working with self-esteem concerns, I help clients explore the beliefs and experiences that may have shaped how they see themselves. Feelings of self-doubt or harsh self-criticism often develop over time and can keep people from fully trusting their own voice and abilities. Together we gently uncover these patterns while building greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and a more grounded sense of confidence and self-worth.

Self-esteem struggles can be painful to live with, but they often carry important information about how you’ve learned to see yourself in relationships and the world. In our work together, we focus on building a steadier sense of internal safety while also exploring what your self-doubt may be responding to—especially in relation to early experiences, major life transitions, or recurring patterns in close relationships. Approached with curiosity and care, difficulties with self-esteem can become a pathway toward greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and a more grounded sense of worth.

Low self-esteem does not always look the way people expect. It does not always show up as someone who seems visibly insecure or withdrawn. More often it looks like a high achiever who never feels like enough, someone who constantly seeks validation from others, a person who avoids taking risks because failure feels catastrophic, or a man who has spent years measuring his worth by his productivity, his income, or what other people think of him.
The internal experience is usually some version of the same thing: a persistent sense of not measuring up, difficulty accepting positive feedback, a harsh inner voice that is quick to criticize and slow to acknowledge progress, and a pattern of putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own.
Self-esteem is not something you either have or do not have. It is built through experience, shaped by relationships and environment, and it can be changed with the right kind of focused work. That means examining where those beliefs about yourself came from, challenging the patterns that reinforce them, and building a more accurate and stable sense of who you actually are.
My approach is direct and practical. We identify the specific ways low self-esteem is showing up in your life, address the thinking patterns and behaviors that sustain it, and build real confidence grounded in self-awareness and action rather than approval from others.
If you are tired of being your own harshest critic and ready to approach yourself differently, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety, depression , and just generally improve quality of life. In a world so focused on achievement and external validation it can weigh on your own views of yourself. I work with clients to re-establish balance, identity, and self-love to be happy with the person you are and have always wanted to be. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious or negative thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to loving yourself and enjoying what you have to offer the world!
