Self Esteem
Laura Silva, LicMHC - Online/Virtual Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, Traditional, Integrative, Heart Centered counseling. Coach, Educator, Depth Therapy.
There is difference between Self Esteem and Self-Worth, though often used interchangeably. Building positive self esteem is how we evaluate ourselves. It is our internal assessment of our qualities and attributes. We have healthy self esteem when what we think, feel and believe about ourselves is honest and realistic. Unhealthy self esteem can lead to the trap of Narcissism. Low self-esteem is underestimating or ignoring your positive characteristics. Do you tell yourself that you are stupid, lazy, boring, selfish, or generally a bad person because of the things you think, say or do? Through various modalities and new learning, I will help you build skills of positive self-esteem and especially realize your intrinsic value, goodness and capabilities i.e. your Self-Worth.

Self Esteem
Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have worked throughout my career to help individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) identify who and/or what contributes to their low sense of self. I help them to identify strengths, and focus on what is in that person's control in an effort to take the power away from what has historically contributed to their self-perception.

Self Esteem
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Self-esteem is something everyone struggles with from time to time. My belief is that it comes from childhood messages from both environmental and caregiving factors. I am positive that through talking and working through these factors that patients can find relief and new perspectives on their self-esteem and self-worth

Self Esteem
David A. Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Many people have challenges with self-esteem, and these challenges often come from relationships formed early in an individual's life. Through a non-judgmental examination of these early relationship experiences and patterns, self-esteem can be greatly improved.

Self Esteem
Douglas LaBier, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with self-esteem issues by helping the person identify what he or she perceives as a self-esteem problem. It usually reflects conflicts that grew from insufficient recognition of their value or worth; or, in contrast, and inflation of their sense of self, to mask deep insecurity.

Self Esteem
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
In my work with women, I see how low self-esteem can hold someone back from pursuing meaningful change, especially in reaching out for help. Self-esteem plays a huge role in the decisions we make and the limits we set in our lives, influencing our relationships, career choices, and even our ability to prioritize self-care.
When self-esteem is low, it’s common to feel unworthy, hesitant to take up space, or fearful of failure. This can lead to a cycle of self-doubt, missed opportunities, and even people-pleasing, where your needs are constantly on the back burner. Therapy with me can provide a supportive and judgment-free space where we work together to understand the roots of these beliefs, and slowly build a more empowering and compassionate self-image.
I understand that starting therapy is a courageous step—one that requires an acknowledgment of self-worth. Through our work, we will challenge the negative self-talk and redefine what it means for you to feel valued. This process, while transformative, often unveils powerful insights and leads to more confident decision-making, self-compassion, and fulfilling relationships. Whether you’re navigating career pressures, relationship challenges, or simply ready to prioritize yourself, we’ll work together to rebuild your foundation of self-esteem.
