Self Esteem

Tracey Knows

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Struggling with self-esteem can make it difficult to trust yourself, set boundaries, and feel confident in your own skin. I help clients uncover the root of their self-doubt, challenge negative self-talk, and build a more compassionate relationship with themselves. Through mindfulness, cognitive reframing, and self-empowerment techniques, I guide individuals toward a stronger sense of self-worth and inner confidence. My approach focuses on shifting deeply ingrained patterns and fostering a mindset that embraces growth, authenticity, and self-acceptance.

Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: Maria Jose Rendon, psychologist
Self Esteem

Maria Jose Rendon

Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults whose self-esteem has been shaped by years of masking, code-switching, or measuring themselves against corporate, academic, or cultural standards, including neurodivergent adults, first-generation professionals, and Latinx clients navigating cultural identity. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, which helps identify the specific thought patterns underneath self-doubt and build a more accurate, sustainable sense of your own competence. Many of my clients arrive highly accomplished on paper and privately unconvinced of it, our work together closes that gap. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D., psychologist
Self Esteem

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you struggle with self-esteem, you may find yourself doubting your worth, second-guessing your decisions, or relying on others’ approval to feel okay about yourself. You might be highly capable, yet still feel “not good enough,” focusing on your mistakes while discounting your strengths. Over time, this can affect your confidence, relationships, and willingness to go after what you truly want. I help clients build a stronger, more stable sense of self that doesn’t depend on constant external validation. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and shift the negative thought patterns and beliefs that undermine your confidence. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work at a deeper level to change the internal dialogue and emotional responses that reinforce self-doubt. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you take action in alignment with your values, even when confidence isn’t fully in place. What’s often missing isn’t ability—you likely already have the skills and qualities needed to succeed. What’s missing is an internal foundation of self-trust and a way to interrupt the automatic self-criticism that keeps you feeling small or uncertain. Without that shift, self-doubt continues to influence how you think, feel, and act. The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to see yourself differently. If you’re willing to approach this in a new way, I can help you develop greater self-confidence, reduce self-doubt, and build a more secure, consistent sense of self.

Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Lee Chase, psychologist
Self Esteem

Lee Chase

Psychologist, Ph.D.
There are times we have had experiences or interactions that have dampened the way we see ourselves. So often our inner voice is quite negative and judgemental. Through therapy, we will examine what your self-esteem is based on, where it needs strengthening, and how to shore up your coping skills, self-talk, and sense of self.

Falls Church, Virginia therapist: Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D., psychologist
Self Esteem

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have been struggling with self-esteem issues and the challenges that this can lead to in their mood, relationships, sense of competence at school or work, and sense of identity. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Mary Sayre

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC
Low self esteem is deeply painful and one is often filled with shame about who he/she/they is(are). It is helpful to understand the context of low self esteem in helping to rewire the brain and the messages that it carries about oneself.
