These settings have given me the experience needed to work with children, adolescents, and adults that are experiencing depression, anxiety, low self esteem, burnout and self-harm or suicidal ideation.
Do anxious and depressive thoughts interfere with yours or your child's daily life? Does lack of boundaries contribute to feelings of burnout? Feeling this way can impact how we feel about ourselves and how we navigate our daily life. Let's overcome those feelings while changing your internal dialogue to increase self-esteem, boundaries, and reaching goals to live your life in a way that feels authentic for you. My goal is to create a space where you can come to share those feelings freely and at your own pace, with some gentle guidance and humor to help the process.

So, you've been trying to be strong and look the part, huh? You're pretty effective in many aspects of your life, but you tend to get triggered when it comes to personal and professional relationships. And let's not forget about that whole "head of the family or I am the only one who can do it" thing... because where has it actually gotten you? Your trust in relationships is a bit shaky, and you've been pretending that everything's alright. But deep down, you know you're silently struggling with self-doubt, anxiousness, low self-esteem, grief, or just plain fear of the unknown. Doesn't that pretense get tiring?

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.
