I have always viewed the therapeutic process to be that of taking time for ourselves - to slow down the chaos around you and that you may be feeling within yourself. Understanding our behavior, our reaction to provocations and learning how to think before we react to feelings is critical. Therapy allows us to develop or cultivate a truer understanding of who we are and how we got here. I can help you with creating a deeper sense of self, improve your coping skills, self-esteem and decrease the anxiety you may be experiencing. I have 20+ years experience as a Licensed Psychotherapist.

Slowing down is hard when our lives are busy, and we feel out of balance—it can feel like there is very little time to work on ourselves.  Therapy is about creating space for positive change. When we do manage to slow down and make room for ourselves, we can grow and create lasting adjustments that make our lives more balanced.  Entering therapy provides that space and opportunity. I work collaboratively with my clients, providing a safe and non-judgmental space to explore issues, gain perspective, develop new and creative coping skills, and strengthen one’s relationship with themselves and with others.

Your child's racing thoughts, nervous stomach and pounding heart is not going away. They are stuck in worried thoughts and behaviors that scare you both. You've read books, talked to friends and googled about anxiety, OCD and anger. It's not helping. Maybe situations like divorce or peer drama have taken a toll on their self esteem. Your once happy kid seems to have lost their confidence. You both want to see their self esteem rise again to feel stronger and more secure in who they are. It can feel overwhelming with so many therapy choices. How do you know you are choosing the best help for your child and your family?

For over 20 years I have effectively helped people to understand and change what interferes with their confidence, relationships and the ability to cope with life transitions and losses. Coping skills that are destructive (or healthy coping skills that cannot be maintained) lead to feeling “stuck,” which adds to frustration and self-doubt. Once this cycle is understood, healthy, sustainable coping skills can be easily learned and implemented. This is life changing!

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.
