I'm a mental health counselor in training who is passionate about integrating Christian Biblical counseling principles with therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to address concerns like anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, ADHD, and relationship difficulties. As a devout follower of Jesus Christ, I firmly believe that wholeness can only be found through Him, and thus, genuine healing is achievable solely in His name. I'm more than happy to support all clients, regardless of your faith.

While some people have a strong grasp of their identity, you may be struggling with understanding your true self. If this resonates with you, I'm here to join you on your path of self-exploration. With experience as a licensed clinical social worker in clinical and hospital settings, I have treated various mental health diagnoses. My role as a school social worker has also given me valuable experience in assisting children dealing with behavioral issues, family conflicts, life changes, and self-esteem challenges.

In recent extensive European travel, I discovered a real cancer elimination process in Germany. I refer to and provide information about that clinic. In addition, I learned of and have personally used a simple rapid process to escape opioid addiction without withdrawal symptoms or cravings. My psychotherapeutic work in the last few years has centered on Couples and Marital Counselling. However, I enjoy hearing from past patients and can often help them through tough life passages.

We all experience life challenges and emotional distress. While we may have been encouraged to believe in the importance of handling things independently, that belief can actually cause more pressure and result in a less secure feeling. The stronger path to a solution may be found with the help of someone else, but who do you turn to? Family and friends often think they know what's best without really attending to your personal preferences, and others may overreact or simply not understand. I can offer you a place that is emotionally safe to explore your difficulties and to build your strengths.

Therapy is a place to talk to someone outside of your every day life. It's a place to gain insight into what is going on within yourself, and to learn more about your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. You may begin therapy due to a serious life event, or simply to improve your mood, your lifestyle, or your relationships. I will ask questions and offer feedback to help you look at your problems differently, to make more sense of what's going on in your life, and to unravel difficult issues. We will work together as you decide what changes you may want to begin to make.

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.
