Self Esteem
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults build healthy self-esteem, greater self-confidence, and a stronger sense of self-worth. Many individuals struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, negative self-talk, body image concerns, or feelings of not being "good enough." These challenges can affect relationships, career success, emotional well-being, and overall life satisfaction. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion practices, and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, recognize their strengths, develop self-acceptance, and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate view of themselves. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and capable of living in alignment with their values and goals.

Self Esteem
Patricia McGuire
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-MHSP, NCC
Self-esteem, along with self-compassion, are necessary building blocks to a flourishing feeling of wellness.
11 Years Experience
Online in Knoxville, TN Tennessee
Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee — the state's flagship research university — and serves as the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains and Appalachian outdoor recreation culture, giving it a distinctive blend of college-town energy and Appalachian heritage that shapes its therapy community. The city's growing healthcare sector, anchored by UT Medical Center and Covenant Health, provides institutional mental health resources and supplies clinical training to the local community. Knoxville's working-class Appalachian communities carry distinct cultural attitudes toward help-seeking — including strong value on self-reliance and community support — that therapists must navigate with cultural sensitivity. The University of Tennessee's psychology programs, combined with the city's proximity to Appalachian communities experiencing opioid-related crisis, mean addiction recovery and co-occurring trauma are among the most active areas in Knoxville's local therapy landscape.
