The origin of the word, "heal", means to make "whole". As we are affected by the inevitable challenges and traumas in life, we tend to adapt by splitting off essential parts of who we are. These adaptations assist for a while, before they ultimately start harming us. It simply doesn't work to be so internally fractured. Becoming "whole" demands that we start including and re-membering all that has been lost. It's a rigorous undertaking that can be overwhelming on one's own. The role of the therapist is to be a companion to the inner world, to hold a map when we are lost, and to witness all aspects of who we are.

As helpful as traditional talk therapy can be, your mind is in every cell of your body, so creating shifts in your mind or body requires working with both. I work with mind and body at the same time: with bodywork (CranioSacral Therapy techniques) I can sense and help you release physical and energetic restrictions so your body can function more optimally, and with therapeutic dialoguing (Hypnotherapy techinques) I can help discover and transform internal conflict to help you feel at ease within yourself. My goal is to help you feel better from the very first session.

Dr. Lintin understands how stepping into your truth may be frightening. There is no right way to uncover emotions that may be blocking you from living a fulfilled life. Everyone has stories to tell, unique, inspiring, challenging and sometimes devastating. The shocking thing is that many people walk through life without ever sharing these life events and so often with trauma, the guilt and shame can stop you from telling anyone causing difficulties in your relationships with others in both personal and professional life.

Anxiety, depression and other issues can take us off guard, blindsiding us by suddenly challenging our confidence, undermining our autonomy, and bringing to mind some of our most difficult experiences. It is common to assume these problems will go away on their own or if we just take a break. It is my experience that over time these problems reoccur in even more confusing and disorienting ways that might lead to crisis, leaving us feeling even more isolated and vulnerable. Sometimes the most difficult step is just asking for help, to place ourselves in a position of vulnerability.

How many of us wake up one day to discover we are living a life that does not quite fit who we are or what we want? We are stuck, anxious, and depressed, often without knowing why or what to do about it. Or maybe we do know why but aren't sure what our first steps should be to get ourselves moving again. What we do know, though, is that there is something more inside of us, that we have a "guiding star" that is just waiting to be discovered.

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.
