Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients build their self-esteem and repair their self view - something that has likely been destroyed by society and feedback from others about their value and worth. Unfortunately, we live in a culture that does not value people equally. Even highly successful individuals can have a vulnerable self-view that gets activated with setbacks, mistakes, or rejection. If you've found your self-esteem plummeting from time to time, it might be worth investigating what's going on at a deeper level.

Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Self-esteem is at the core of mental and emotional well-being, shaping how we see ourselves, speak to ourselves, and navigate life’s challenges. If self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or feelings of unworthiness are holding you back, we will explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion. Through somatic awareness and nervous system regulation, we’ll work to shift limiting beliefs, cultivate self-acceptance, and build an inner foundation of confidence and self-trust. My goal is to support you in developing a kinder, more empowered relationship with yourself so that you can fully step into your worth and thrive.

Nicole Zembery
Pre-Licensed Professional, LPC-Associate
If you struggle with self-doubt, negative self-talk, or feeling like you’re not enough, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay that way. Low self-esteem often comes from patterns and experiences that can be unpacked and reshaped. In therapy, we’ll work on building a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself so you can feel more confident, secure, and grounded in who you are.

"Imposter syndrome", low self worth, low self esteem, however you identify it, it's holding you down. I help my clients sort through the rubble to explore who they are now, what's getting in the way, and to get you to who you want to be.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Low self esteem does not always look like insecurity. It often shows up as overworking, overgiving, and constantly trying to prove your worth.
Many high achieving individuals struggle with imposter syndrome, feeling like they are one mistake away from being exposed or not enough. Underneath that is often a deeper fear that if they stop performing, producing, or taking care of others, they will become unworthy of love, connection, or belonging.
This creates a cycle where your worth becomes tied to what you do, rather than who you are.
In our work together, we focus on untangling your sense of self from performance and external validation. You will learn how to recognize the patterns that keep you stuck in self doubt, build a more stable internal sense of worth, and begin to show up in relationships without feeling like you have to earn your place in them.You do not have to keep proving that you are enough.

Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Self esteem has to do with moments when we have felt rejected, invisible, not importnat, not good enough and we have believed it. It has become our deep, painful truth. I help by providing resources to relate with oneself in a different way as we explore where that truth comes from and heal.

Austin's explosive tech-industry growth has brought an influx of young professionals navigating burnout, identity shifts, and the pressures of rapid lifestyle change in an increasingly expensive city. The city has a large LGBTQ+ community and strong demand for affirming therapists specializing in gender identity, relationship dynamics, and life transitions. The University of Texas and major hospital systems including Ascension Seton and St. David's HealthCare provide supplementary mental health resources alongside the city's growing network of private practices. Many Austin therapists offer telehealth, making it easier to find care across the wider metro and surrounding Hill Country communities.
