Self Esteem
Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self Esteem has numerous ways that it can become a struggle; maybe it’s a lack of confidence, maybe it’s not believing you deserve good things, maybe it’s less noticeable ways that you forget to take care of yourself, and sometimes it’s a doubt that underneath it all, there is a self that exists, let alone deserves esteem. As a psychologist specializing in building deeper connection to one’s self, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to open shame-free spaces and explore who you are and who you want to be. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our sense of self is formed or disrupted by our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

Self Esteem
Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my sessions focusing on improving self-esteem, I often employ elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative self-beliefs, replacing them with more realistic and positive thoughts about themselves. Additionally, I integrate aspects of Person-Centered Therapy to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel valued and understood, fostering a sense of acceptance and self-worth. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I assist clients in cultivating mindfulness skills and accepting their thoughts and feelings, empowering them to take meaningful actions aligned with their values and build a more confident sense of self.

John Perry
Counselor/Therapist, Resident in Counseling, MA, NCC
In my sessions as a therapist, I often utilize acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help clients build self-esteem by encouraging them to embrace their thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful actions aligned with their values. Additionally, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) allows us to explore and challenge negative thought patterns, fostering a healthier self-perception for individuals. I also integrate culturally sensitive, person-centered, and relational approaches to tailor the treatment to clients' unique cultural background and interpersonal dynamics, ensuring a holistic and effective therapeutic experience.

Self Esteem
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with self-esteem issues involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients recognize and accept their negative self-beliefs without judgment, promoting actions that align with their core values and build self-worth. EMDR is utilized to process and resolve past traumatic experiences that have negatively impacted self-esteem, fostering cognitive and emotional healing. SE addresses the physiological aspects of low self-esteem, helping clients release stored tension and restore a sense of balance. This comprehensive approach supports clients in developing a healthier self-concept, improving emotional resilience, and enhancing overall well-being.

Self Esteem
Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
Maybe you have experienced some difficult life events (divorce, anxiety, infidelity, family dynamics) that have caused you to second guess yourself. To think poorly about who you are. To have unkind thoughts of self that seem to surface with no rhyme or reason and interfere with your ability to feel confident. Having an intact, strong sense of self, believing in who you are, and knowing your worth (cliche but true!) are keys to having a healthy self esteem. The good news? Self esteem can be improved. Your view of self can change. I help women reclaim your identity, know who you are on a core level, reframe and change negative thoughts of self, and let go of negative (and untrue!) messages you may have received along the way in life so you feel confident in your skills, abilities, and know what you are willing to tolerate (and not tolerate!) in your relationships.

Self Esteem
Brad Croyle
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
I work with clients who struggle with Self Esteem issues. Many clients report that they just do not feel worthwhile or good enough, despite much encouragement from family and friends. This is most likely from past trauma which does not simply go away on its own. During our sessions, we will collaborate to create a plan for addressing them that helps you get where you want to be with your esteem. I practice from a Holistic perspective and commonly employ EMDR and other effective modalities with helping clients achieve balance and purpose in their lives and creative solutions to their problems. This includes exploring past issues and trauma that may be a factor presently. Our goal is to make lasting and desired changes to promote healthy relationships and positive interactions. We will work to redefine who you are today and move forward feeling confident, genuine and secure in your self and abilities.
