As a board certified music therapist, I believe creativity is an essential tool for life. Creativity makes us resilient, effective, helps us solve problems, and helps us imagine what is possible. You may be looking for creative ways to approach therapy for you or your child. You or your child may identify as neurodivergent and want to explore ways to manage stress, develop coping strategies, express complex emotions, develop emotional intelligence, and enjoy positive and affirming social experiences. Music creates a rich environment for all of that all while helping individuals build self-esteem and a positive sense of self.

To others, your teen or young adult appears to have it all - they are bright, accomplished, and successful. Yet beneath the surface they're grappling with anxiety that impacts their schoolwork and relationships. Perhaps they're struggling with focus, sleep, anger, or avoidance of particular tasks or situations. They may worry about college acceptance or falling short of having the career and life they envision. Often they feel burdened by the weight of effort or achievements that they perceive as never good enough. They’re ready to make a change - they want to feel relaxed, confident, and more fulfilled.

I specialize in working with teens and adults experiencing issues around anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual identity, relationships, life stage transitions, self-esteem, and more. I recognize the difficulty in changing patterns and behaviors that are no longer serving you and I believe the therapeutic relationship is key in creating desired changes. I place a great deal of importance on examining macro factors that may be impacting behaviors and emotions instead of blaming you for acting or feeling certain ways.

I have a collaborative approach; where actively working together to deeply understand you and your issues is the first step. Working together to understand and not judge the thoughts, feelings, beliefs and experiences that are contributing to your patterns is essential. Decreasing shame, and increasing self esteem, acceptance, and compassion, are integral aspects to therapy I offer, and necessary to reducing the internal conflict which so often fuels the problems and patterns. For therapy to be effective, it calls for a very active effort on your part, as well as mine.

Working under the supervision of Bonnie Marshall and Katie Bateman, I am passionate about working with teens and young adults who struggle to navigate growing up in the era of social media and smartphones.

People seek out therapy for a variety of reasons, such as to address an already identified concern, to develop a particular coping skill set, or to enhance self-confidence and quality of life.

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.
