My name is Mercedes Carey, and I'm a licensed social worker. I'm interested in assisting people in discovering new ways to live a lifestyle that promotes healing on a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual level. I use somatic approaches, such as mindfulness and movement, to treat the mind and body together. As a queer masculine-presenting woman of color, I know what it’s like to belong to multiple marginalized identities and navigate spaces where your entire self is not acknowledged or welcomed. I am deeply committed to providing a safe therapeutic environment that recognizes and honors individuals as a whole person.

Hello! I’m a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Circle City Behavioral Health. I hope to offer a brave space for my clients to share their experiences and explore their own life journey. Every client is an expert of their own story and can be empowered through sharing it with others in judgment free spaces. I believe therapy is an opportunity to learn about our thinking patterns, our behaviors, and how our belief systems impact our self-esteem and sense of belonging. The therapeutic process can help us make sense of what happened in the past, the present, and how we can move toward our future.

Sometimes life throws us unexpected challenges. Sometimes we have avoided or ignored situations and events that have been incredibly distressing and do not seem to ever really go away or get easier. I believe everyone deserves to heal and grow from these struggles and challenges. During difficult times you may find yourself feeling isolated, disconnected, misunderstood and/or unheard. You may be questioning your life and your decisions, but there is a part of you that has never given up. This is all very common when struggling anxiety, self-esteem/doubt, depression, mood disorders, substance use, and various trauma.

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.
