Self Esteem Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

Therapy can be Fun, Exciting, and Inspiring (With hopefully some bits of humor if possible. I get back to everyone within 12 hours.) You're hesitant since it's your first time in therapy; perhaps you have given up hope. You feel empty, hopeless, and depressed. Every day is a struggle due to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Maybe you have past family trauma that hasn't been resolved. Maybe there are cultural confines that have made you feel shackled, lost, and voiceless. I help people who are dealing with depression and anxiety have a new experience by exploring other possibilities to cope.

We live in a culture of expectations that are set high. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or any of the various other forms of dis-ease, I am here to hold space for you. I guide you towards a peaceful mind and healthy lifestyle. I provide a space to break through what is blocking you from feeling connected, safe, and successful in your surroundings. A goal of mine is to aid you in processing what is not working, in an effort to move forward with intention. I will be here to support you in achieving heightened self-awareness, clarity, and producing a plan that will transform your life.

My work is based on direct and honest communication informed by curiosity, empathy and mindfulness. I help my clients discover the roots of thoughts, feelings and behaviors while also identifying ways to encourage healing, growth and change. I have training and experience working with a diverse population, especially those in the creative fields. I work with individual adults struggling with a variety of life challenges including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, creative blocks and struggles in relationship. I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative experience, and that we participate in a journey together.

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist with 9 years of experience, and believe that therapy should be a custom, collaborative journey tailored to my clients goals and challenges. I help ambitious, anxious people learn how to get unstuck and create calm confidence that lasts. I provide individual therapy for people who are worn out by balancing all their different roles and responsibilities. It can feel like a full time job to manage demanding family members, work commitments, and being a good partner. If how you've dealt with it all isn't working any more, I can help you to create space and deeply enjoy life again.

If you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or inadequate, I can help you. If you find yourself making the same choices despite wanting different outcomes, I can help you. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space so that you can better understand yourself, your relationships, and your patterns of behavior. Together, we will discover root causes to current problems and directly address the underlying source of distress, so that change is effective and long-lasting.

Are you ready to find balance and ease the internal effects of drastic ups and downs on this roller coaster called life? Are you ready to get to know the most evolved version of yourself? I work specifically in unbinding your inner child from learned conditions that have stifled your authentic self. I work with highly sensitive individuals to foster their authentic identity and achieve mood regulation, higher self esteem , relief in areas of depression, anxiety, trauma, and fears of failure. For couples, learn to nurture relationship skills that help distrust, disconnect, poor communication, low intimacy.

Not sure how to begin, I get that, seeking therapy is a very brave thing to do. Our therapists not only have an understanding of neuroscience, but they also create a safe and supportive space. We will help you work through issues related to stress, trauma, life transitions, self esteem , worries, anxiety, depression and an unsettled state of being. At Westside therapy all our therapists believe that it's okay to not feel okay all the time.

My holistic approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices and direct interventions that are based on your needs in the moment. I work with issues ranging from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and sexual difficulties (couples and individuals). I help people develop emotional insight and clarity and we learn new skills to facilitate growth and balance. My purpose is to help people live more authentically, with intention and meaning.

We often find ourselves feeling "stuck" or "trapped" in cycles that feel all too familiar, but that no longer serve us. My goal in therapy is to support you in creating a deeper understanding and awareness of these cycles, let go of old patterns, and to create anew. Self-esteem issues, relationships, and addiction are often avenues for which our traumas continue to affect our current reality. I've had extensive experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds struggling with issues related to addiction, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, eating disorders, trauma, mood disorders, LGBT+, and attachment-related issues.

As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at Root to Rise Therapy, I specialize in working with couples and individuals to navigate relationship connection and communication issues, and to overcome anxiety, depression, and self-esteem challenges. I believe that a therapeutic relationship based in acceptance and unconditional positive regard fosters healing. I hold an Attachment-Based perspective while working with couples and adults to promote increased awareness, compassion, a deeper connection with oneself, and greater emotional security with loved ones.

Do you sometimes feel like a tourist in your own life? Has your career reached a dead-end but you don't know how to make a change? Has your marriage or relationship grown stale or become a fight that never ends? Do thoughts of a better life whisper to you in the midst of depression, anxiety or deep fear? Conflict and getting stuck can be part of living, and sometimes our problems seem like they are updated versions of what plagued us as children and teenagers. What would your life feel and look like if these weren't there?

People refer to therapy as a science or practice-but I have come to view it as an art in the most exquisite form. Therapy is about expressing and emoting, and finding value in the internal and external relationships we create. My education and clinical experience has verified the depth of this "art," revealing knowledge that can be gained, healing of old scars, and magic that can ensue when self-love occurs. I am a firm believer that therapy is not a requirement for healthy living, but similar to music and film, it can add intrigue, deepen relationships, and significantly enhance the quality of life.

My name is Jonathan Gomez LMFT 135094. My Specialty areas include Depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, childhood trauma and past trauma, grief and loss, parenting issues, anger management and life transitions. My therapy approaches are mainly Gestalt although I was also trained in psychodynamic and trauma informed care. I Work with adults and teenagers. Bilingual: Spanish. I typically work with Adults and teenagers. I love seeing the change in the client. Once change happens, it is like a whirlwind. That drives me to continue to do this work.

I believe everyone is capable of living their fullest, most vibrant life and it is my passion to help them achieve it. I help clients foster insight by processing their past experiences and gently uncovering the ways their pasts connect with their current struggles. I teach clients to discover the patterns and rules that keep them stuck and then support them in cultivating a life that brings them joy and fulfillment. I invite my clients on a journey of self-compassion and teach them how to prioritize gentleness and self-care. I believe therapy can be silly and even fun while still being impactful and effective.

I (and my podcasts and ebooks found on my website) will work with both individuals and partners in a relationship that is emotionally not working. I will give you the tools, even if you are not local (telehealth), in the very first session to help you to learn to stop the disastrous conflict that you are experiencing. I will tell you what is happening for you and why it is happening so that you'll be able to take responsibility for your own emotional reactions, and change your own behavior.
