Self Esteem Therapists in Colorado Springs, CO
Everyone has their own unique story, and what has happened in our past affects who we are and how we experience the world and relationships today. I believe that as humans, we are fundamentally relational, and relationships can both be the source of healing and the source of pain. Having a space to process the pain without judgment is essential for healing.

Healing is not about fixing what’s broken, it’s about remembering what's always been whole within you. My name is Michelle Hernandez, and I’m the therapist behind Tonalli Healing, a practice rooted in warmth and gentle restoration.
My work centers around supporting individuals (14 years old & beyond) who experience high functioning anxiety, people who tend to carry much for others while quietly managing their own stress beneath the surface. I work to create space to explore the deeper layers of stress to cultivate balance and self compassion. This includes supporting clients navigating trauma, identity, and life transitions.

I might be for you if: You’ve outgrown the surface-level stuff and want something deeper. You’re self-aware and constantly thinking, looping, analyzing... but still not feeling better. You’ve tried traditional therapy and left wanting more challenge or creativity. You’re tired of “fixing” yourself and want to explore what’s actually yours vs. what you inherited. You’ve been living by rules or roles that don’t quite fit anymore. You crave honest conversation, unexpected insight, and a little bit of weird.

I work best with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating big emotions, behavioral challenges, anxiety, or major life transitions like divorce, a move, or a new job. Many younger clients struggle to put feelings into words, so I use a child-centered, play-based approach that helps them feel safe exploring at their own pace. I also believe lasting change happens when parents grow alongside their child, so I make space for that collaboration too. With teens and adults, I draw on a variety of therapeutic perspectives tailored to each person's unique goals, helping them move from stuck to steady, one session at a time.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.
What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.
What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.
How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
