Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
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.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many of my clients struggle with low self-esteem or a deep sense of “not good enough” at their core. I help people shift from seeing their "hole" self to embracing their "whole" self through a strength-based approach that honors their inherent worth. Together, we’ll explore old narratives—often rooted in early life experiences—that may no longer serve you, and work to rewrite them so you can cultivate greater confidence, self-compassion, and a renewed sense of self-worth.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Low self‑esteem often comes from years of criticism, trauma, or feeling like you are “too much” or “not enough.” Together, we notice how this shows up in your body, choices, and relationships, challenge shame‑based beliefs, and practice new, more compassionate ways of relating to yourself.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who appear capable and put together but carry a quiet, persistent sense of not being enough. This can look like self‑criticism, difficulty trusting your own judgment, comparing yourself to others, downplaying your own needs or accomplishments, or feeling like you are always falling short of who you are supposed to be. Many of the adults I see have spent years meeting expectations, supporting others, or performing well in work or school while privately feeling inadequate, invisible, or unsure of their worth.
Low self‑esteem often develops in environments where your needs were minimized, where you were praised for being responsible or easy, or where you learned to stay small to avoid conflict or disappointment. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself, how you move through relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want.
In our work together, we explore the origins of these beliefs and how they show up in your body, emotions, and daily life. We look at the roles you have carried, the expectations you have internalized, and the parts of you that are tired of feeling not enough. The goal is not to create artificial confidence but to help you develop a more grounded, accurate sense of yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice. Supporting people who have learned to minimize themselves or feel “not enough” is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve worked to hold things together.
