Self Esteem
Daniel Hong
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
I work with individuals who struggle with self-esteem, self-doubt, and a persistent inner critic. Often, low self-esteem develops not because something is “wrong” with you, but because you learned to adapt to environments where your needs, feelings, or worth were minimized. Through a person-centered and self-compassionate approach, therapy becomes a space to soften harsh self-judgments, reconnect with your inherent worth, and build a more trusting relationship with yourself.

Self Esteem
Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Self-esteem challenges often show up not just as low confidence, but as an ongoing inner narrative of self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or a feeling of not being “enough” no matter how much you accomplish or give to others. Many clients struggle with over-functioning externally while feeling internally uncertain, unworthy, or disconnected from a stable sense of self.
In therapy, we explore where these beliefs come from and how they have been reinforced over time through relationships, early experiences, and internalized expectations. From a psychodynamic and trauma-informed lens, low self-esteem is understood not as a fixed trait, but as a learned relational pattern that can shift over time.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we gently turn toward the body-based experience of self-doubt — the tightening, sinking, or critical internal voice — and begin to relate to it with curiosity rather than identification. This creates space for new internal experiences to emerge.
As clients develop greater self-awareness and emotional safety within themselves, self-esteem begins to shift from something externally based to something more stable, embodied, and internally anchored.

Self Esteem
Courtney Hunter
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Self-esteem is how we value and perceive ourselves. It's based on our opinions and beliefs about ourselves, which are ideally high and confident. In reality individual's self-esteem can be molded in a negative unkind space. Identifying challenges and obstacles in low self-esteem can create space for confidence and self-compassion to grow.

Self Esteem
Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
Self-Esteem starts with being a friend to ourselves. It requires stopping negative self-talk and replacing it with positive thoughts. Irrational and limiting beliefs can also be a blockage against developing self-esteem. Self Esteem also takes action and real world success. As we have more positive self-talk, and start believing in ourselves we will start being more motivated because we believe we can succeed and that our effort makes a difference. Then we start practicing more at whatever matters to us. We start to have more success in those areas and others start to notice and appreciate our skills. Feeling like you are good at something, have some positive relationships, and celebrating the little positive steps along the way gets the momentum of self esteem building going. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be incredibly helpful to this process.
