I love working with people who are looking to elevate and change their lives. The ideal client is anyone who seeks to become a more capable and confident version of themselves. As a psychotherapist, I assist in the building of healthy self-esteem and self-worth, thus, assisting in the cultivation of positive relationships, whether intrapersonal (with self), romantic, or familial. I believe that change starts with our thoughts, and once we change our thoughts our behaviors will follow suit.

I provide psychoanalytic and relational/intersubjective psychotherapy for adults and adolescents. This approach allows you to express internal thoughts and feelings and worries you have, and it can begin to help you understand them in a deeper way. Many people suffer from negative thinking and get stuck in that state of mind, feeling that is the reality. It is only a partial state of mind, it holds us back from being more productive and enjoying life. I have once a week and up to five times a week psychotherapy available.

People become discouraged and function ineffectively due to mistaken beliefs and faulty values. Counseling helps people who have problems or concerns they are not resolving to their satisfaction on their own. When Russell Crowe was asked, in reference to his mental health, “Do you still see little people? Do you still hear voices? He responded, “I believe all of us do. I just choose not to acknowledge it.” He realized something was going on with him mentally, and he was honest about it. As your counselor, I can assist you in looking for major mistakes in thinking and valuing, like mistrust and lack of confidence.

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.
