Self Esteem
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self-esteem is something everyone struggles with from time to time. My belief is that it comes from childhood messages from both environmental and caregiving factors. I am positive that through talking and working through these factors that patients can find relief and new perspectives on their self-esteem and self-worth

Self Esteem
Laura Silva, LicMHC - Online/Virtual Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, Traditional, Integrative, Heart Centered counseling. Coach, Educator, Depth Therapy.
There is difference between Self Esteem and Self-Worth, though often used interchangeably. Building positive self esteem is how we evaluate ourselves. It is our internal assessment of our qualities and attributes. We have healthy self esteem when what we think, feel and believe about ourselves is honest and realistic. Unhealthy self esteem can lead to the trap of Narcissism. Low self-esteem is underestimating or ignoring your positive characteristics. Do you tell yourself that you are stupid, lazy, boring, selfish, or generally a bad person because of the things you think, say or do? Through various modalities and new learning, I will help you build skills of positive self-esteem and especially realize your intrinsic value, goodness and capabilities i.e. your Self-Worth.

Self Esteem
Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Whether it is imposter syndrome in a school or workplace setting or lacking confidence in a social context, many individuals struggle with self esteem at some point in their lives. I have extensive experience working with individuals to improve their overall self confidence and self esteem. I often pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify how we can make changes to thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that may be at the root of lower self esteem.

Self Esteem
Douglas LaBier, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with self-esteem issues by helping the person identify what he or she perceives as a self-esteem problem. It usually reflects conflicts that grew from insufficient recognition of their value or worth; or, in contrast, and inflation of their sense of self, to mask deep insecurity.

Self Esteem
Dr. John Monopoli

It is easy to feel down on ourselves. When we're down on ourselves, it's important to stop and reflect. One of my strengths is helping clients do this. I will ask thoughtful questions that generate insight and new thoughts, and we will work together to help you feel better.

Self Esteem
Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have worked throughout my career to help individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) identify who and/or what contributes to their low sense of self. I help them to identify strengths, and focus on what is in that person's control in an effort to take the power away from what has historically contributed to their self-perception.

Self Esteem
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You’ve done everything they said would make you feel worthy—and you still don’t feel like enough.
You’re successful, high-achieving, and capable. People rely on you. You’ve built a life that looks great on the outside. But inside? You’re quietly questioning your worth, overthinking everything, and stuck in a loop of self-doubt you can’t seem to shake.
This isn’t low confidence. It’s the impact of burnout, narcissistic abuse, emotional neglect, and years of proving your value by taking care of everyone else first.
I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed psychologist and certified coach with over 25 years of experience helping high-functioning women reclaim their self-worth after years of toxic relationships, gaslighting, and people-pleasing patterns. Whether you’re dealing with the long-term effects of a narcissistic partner, perfectionistic burnout, or simply feel like you’ve lost yourself, I’m here to help you come back home to the woman you were always meant to be.
You might be asking yourself:
“Why do I keep attracting people who make me question myself?”
“How can I be so capable and still feel so insecure?”
“Why do I feel guilty for setting boundaries or saying no?”
“How did I lose myself trying to keep the peace?”
“Can I rebuild my confidence after years of being emotionally torn down?”
Yes. You can.
