You shy away from confrontation. You're seen as the nice friend that is there for everyone but often feel alone and like you can't depend on others for the same support. The thought of change scares the crap out of you but once you get the hang of things you are the best at what you do. You exceed expectations while often wondering if you are good enough. Lots of people depend solely on you as their go-to person. You are the type of person that gets stuff done but you are physically and mentally drained, tired, and feel guilty about taking any time for yourself. You're a pro at turning any situation into a worst-case scenario.

I can help you find self-confidence and more control over the challenges that come your way.
Alone, depressed, in a chaotic relationship – some days it feels like all these. Other days, it feels like just a lot of stress and anxiety. Those aren’t any fun either. Wondering how you got to this place, fear of failure, anxiety about the future, and inability to focus on things that matter – that’s how you go to sleep at night. Mulling over and over how, why, what should you do… without answers. . You hate this feeling but wonder how you can ever change it. I can help. These challenges may become the steppingstone to success, healing, and wholeness.

You’re doing so much. People around you might see you as capable and put together. And still, there’s that familiar mix of self doubt, “I should be further along by now,” and the low key exhaustion of trying to keep it all going without losing yourself. Whether you’re in college, starting a new job, quietly asking yourself “what’s next,” or stuck in mental health struggles that leave you scared and drained, therapy can be a place that is just for you. In both individual and group sessions, we slow things down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and help you step into living confidently.

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.
