Clients I work with often consist of individuals, families, and couples who are experiencing everyday stress, conflict, feeling overwhelmed, or negative internal thoughts. At times, an unbiased and compassionate perspective is what helps process these issues or make the changes you need to feel better.

I have experience working with adults from a variety of different walks of life, facing a wide range of challenges. I enjoy helping people build a life that is lived with decisions made more closely to what is truly important to them. I have found in my practice that people who are going through a change in their life, or are considering a change, benefit from help clarifying their options and desires to aid in navigating transitions. These include life stage changes as well as grief and loss.

Because aging is inevitable, I have now committed my counseling career to the 55 and older population. Change is uncomfortable, but change is essential in order to move to a better place in life as you retire, as you lose a spouse, a child, or a friend. Sometimes the change is as simple as learning to look at something from a different point of view, it is an "ah ha" moment. The first step to change is trust, so I hope you will trust me enough to allow me to walk this challenging journey with you.

Throughout our life span we will encounter different challenges, transitions, and stresses. Most of them we will be able to navigate with the skills and wisdom we’ve learned or developed during our life. Sometimes, however, we encounter situations we don’t feel prepared for or have difficulty coping with. Or sometimes we have been carrying the same anxieties, the same feelings of unhappiness, the same discontents around for a long time and we are just ready to let them go.

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.
