At one point in time or another, all of us struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, big-emotions and overall ineffectiveness in our life.
I have spent much of my 17 years of clinical practice in the child welfare system working with at-risk children and adults involved with Children's Protective Services. However, my training throughout my doctoral program focused on ADHD evaluations and treating anxiety, as well as High Conflict Divorce, Divorce Collaboration, and Marriage Therapy.

If you seem like you have it together but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or alone, I can help. I offer EMDR in Grand Rapids, MI. You may understand your patterns (overthinking, self-doubt, feeling responsible for others, never quite feeling settled) but they keep showing up. If therapy hasn’t fully helped, you’re not alone. Many of my clients are high-functioning and self-aware, have been to therapy and understand their patterns, but still feel stuck. Emotional neglect and relational trauma (or CPTSD) are held not just in your thoughts, but in your nervous system and they need more than insight to start to shift.

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.
