Life is not always easy. Anxiety, depression, addiction, conflict, major life changes such as the death of a loved one, entering college, divorce, etc., and everyday stressors can result in loneliness, anger, compulsiveness, and a feeling of hopelessness. However, therapeutic interventions provided in an atmosphere of acceptance and respect allow individuals to develop new ways to overcome and/or cope with these challenges. I am eager to listen, help you gain insight, provide resources and share tools that can help you transition to a life that aligns with your personal values and goals.

Are you tired of putting on a fake smile and saying you're fine? Does your life and relationships feel out of control and exhausting? Do you keep repeating the same bad relationship patterns? You are not alone. Love and relationships are tough to navigate and when they are unhealthy, they can leave you feeling hopeless and lost. Fear of losing the relationship can make you anxious. Fear of being hurt can make you put up protective walls and avoid closeness. You may find yourself sabotaging healthy relationships and hanging on to unhealthy relationships and habits long after they are not good for you.

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.
