You know that nagging whisper saying “you’re still not enough.” You read the books. Talk to your friends. Pray. Journal. Try to think your way into feeling better. Your life looks good, but you don’t feel good. You’re able to meet every expectation the world places on you, yet still have trouble keeping a promise to yourself to slow down, sit and rest. You’re juggling way too much waiting for someone to see you, understand you. You’re tired and want to feel lighter. Let’s start with one honest conversation.

Ann Meripolski
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCDC
Dallas, TX 75206
If you’ve ever felt numb, disconnected, or so overwhelmed by emotion that you act out impulsively, you are not alone. You might feel like you don’t know yourself anymore, or like you never knew yourself. You might feel like you’re losing control or feel hopeless about finding happiness, contentment, or safety. Trauma or other intense life stressors can cause problems for mental well-being in all parts of life. I completed my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNT Dallas and have completed EMDR training. I have experience and training with trauma, abuse, addiction, dissociation, ADHD, and related issues.

My ideal clients are women who find themselves at a crossroads. They are often in their late 30s, 40s, and beyond, who have spent much of their lives nurturing careers, partners, children, and parents. Many are navigating the profound identity shift of an empty nest, the grief and liberation of a divorce, or the exhaustion of a high-pressure career. They are intelligent, deeply caring individuals who have mastered the art of caring for everyone but themselves. They come to me feeling emotionally drained, mentally overwhelmed, and longing to rediscover who they are outside of their roles as caregivers and achievers.

Waitlist for new clients
My passion lies in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, and self-esteem challenges while rediscovering their sense of self-worth.
You learned early to be strong, capable, low-maintenance, the one who doesn’t need much. You handle it, fix it, ignore it. Those strategies likely protected you and kept relationships intact. But now anxiety lingers, your mind rarely rests, and you're exhausted trying to finally feel like you’re “enough.” Maybe boundaries bring guilt. Maybe you feel unseen and unheard by those around you. Together, we’ll gently uncover the roots of these patterns and nurture a life that feels steadier, kinder, and fully your own.

You do not need to be fixed to begin therapy. You may simply be tired of carrying thoughts, feelings, or patterns that no longer align with the life you want to live. As a licensed therapist, I work with high-achieving individuals and professionals in high-pressure roles who are capable, driven, and successful on the outside, yet often feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or burned out beneath the surface. Many of my clients are accustomed to pushing through discomfort, caring for others, and meeting expectations while quietly losing touch with their own needs, values, and sense of self.

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.
