Natalie Stemati
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Do you experience a lack of confidence in yourself and your abilities? There can be many reasons for experiencing this. A helpful place to begin is by learning how you relate with yourself. Are you hard on yourself? Self-critical - use a lot of "should's," "need to's," or "if only I was perfect...then." This kind of dialogue is self-critical and can contribute to feeling low self-esteem. When you feel low about yourself, its incredibly difficult to thrive in your relationships, work, school, and overall life. We work on exploring and confronting your critical voice so that you can shift your inner dialogue.

Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Are you done living a life of comparison, constantly checking off external measures of success, or regularly seeking external validation?
Self-esteem is often a central component in therapy and is frequently correlated with other mental health symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. Here at Denver Wellness Counseling we see the goal of building a sense of intrinsic value as a key component to contentment and wellness. The treatment for building (or rebuilding) self-esteem begins with a deep exploration of the key life events and experiences that hindered the development of a connected CORE self, or began to chip away or destroy our core sense of worth. Some frequent ways that our self-esteem is negatively impacted are the following: early experiences of inadequate parenting, bullying, negative cultural messages, experiences of rejection/abandonment, the impact of social media, trauma, abuse, neglect, or lacking the tools of self-compassion or self-soothing. Here at Denver Wellness Counseling, our therapist often address these experiences with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to decrease the power of these memories and install a more positive self-concept. Treatment gains are then integrated within the present and future context.

What is Self-esteem?
Your self-esteem is how much you respect yourself, how desirable or worthy you feel, and how confident you are that you can face life’s challenges. When you have strong self-esteem, you feel that you can accomplish your goals, and you expect others to treat you with the dignity and respect that everyone deserves.
When you have weak or low self-esteem, rather than respecting yourself you talk down to yourself. Instead of feeling desirable, you feel ashamed; instead of believing you can accomplish your desires, you feel powerless. This feeling of worthlessness and lack of control grows into feelings of vulnerability, loneliness, and guilt.

Athena McCullough
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LPC, LMFT
Do you second guess yourself or wonder if you really matter to the people around you? Does saying no make you uncomfortable or lead to ruminating thoughts?
Setting boundaries in your personal and professional lives can be challenging and overwhelming. It can feel uncomfortable to say 'no' or to establish limits with others. This is particularly common if you tend to avoid conflict and have people-pleasing tendencies. When you fail to set boundaries, you are prioritizing the needs of others rather than yourself. This can lead to feelings of overwhelm, resentment, and a deep sense that you are being taken advantage of.
Boundaries are an important part of any healthy relationship, be it with yourself or others. Therapy can help you learn to set boundaries in a way you feel confident about. Together, we can explore the root causes of why it is difficult to set boundaries and develop skills and strategies to set healthy boundaries in the future. Learn to say 'no' with confidence.

Lynn A. Paulus, Psy.D
Psychologist, Rocky Mountain Psychotherapy Services, LLC
Self esteem difficulties often arise from early life experiences in childhood. My approach is to explore family history and attachments with significant role models to fully understand the origins of low self esteem and then to begin to reinforce how present life events can shift some of those beliefs. I will explore self judgement and how this may be undermining your feelings about yourself.

Most self-esteem issues go back to early attachment problems. I have taught courses on the development of the 'healthy self'.
I'd happily work with you to identify and work through problems of self-esteem or the sense of defectiveness and shame.

One of the most fulfilling aspects of helping people in my practice is restoring a positive self image, self worth, and discovering inherent strengths. I like to use cognitive restructuring but also mindfulness visualization to build up an ideal version of oneself.
