Do you find yourself feeling like you are never enough, no matter how hard you try? The pressure of showing up in every area of your life is making you anxious, frustrated, and burnt out.

We all have a desire to feel comfortable in our body, to find fulfillment in relationships and work, and to create calm in our environment. These goals are not beyond our reach. For many of us, though, it may be difficult to identify what attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, and patterns detract from our ability to connect with ourselves and others. I work with adolescents and adults who are interested in understanding these factors and, furthermore, want to be intentional about making their unique desires a reality.

As a psychotherapist, I provide individuals with a safe space where they will be carefully listened to and understood. Specializing in psychodynamics, I provide my patients with a warm therapeutic relationship where we will explore past experiences that may be related to current emotional distress in several life areas (relationships, family, career, parenting, eating issues/body image, health and self esteem). We will explore your presenting symptoms not as a "disease" or a "problem" but rather an insight into understanding the self and your needs in a more compassionate way. I also offer supervision to mental health professionals.

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.
