Utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral approach I address a wide variety of issues, including low self-esteem, anxiety and depression. The way we think affects the way we feel which affects our responses to those around us. In Couples' counseling I emphasize the importance of being mindful of the negative scripts triggered by your partner and identifying ways to become the partner you want to be.

You might look like you have everything under control, and from the outside, your life seems picture-perfect. Yet, inside, you're battling overwhelming stress, anxiety, or sadness. Are past traumas still affecting your present? Perhaps setting boundaries is a struggle, leaving you feeling exhausted and unloved. Are you questioning some life choices and desperately need a space to organize your thoughts and regain control? Anxiety and depression are tough; are they keeping you awake or pulling you down?

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.
