Therapy for Self-Image & Self-Esteem

Does this sound like you?

  • You hold yourself to an impossibly high standard—and feel like you’re constantly falling short

  • You struggle to internalize your accomplishments, brushing off praise or attributing success to luck

  • You find it difficult to trust your judgment, often second-guessing your choices

  • You feel depleted trying to appear “together” while inwardly questioning your worth

  • You are constantly in “people pleasing” mode, but rarely in touch with your own needs

Low self-esteem doesn’t always look like self-loathing—it can show up as perfectionism, over-functioning, or a chronic sense that who you are is somehow not enough.

These patterns often develop over years, shaped by early experiences, cultural narratives, or relationships that taught you to be hyper-vigilant about how you’re perceived.

Now, in your 20s, 30s, and 40s you are ready to take the next step to end this cycle of negativity. In therapy, we’ll take a thoughtful look at how these internalized beliefs were formed and the ways they continue to impact your daily life—from your relationships to your career. Together, we’ll build a more compassionate, grounded relationship with yourself.

Using evidence-based strategies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we’ll begin to challenge distorted thinking, soften your inner critic, calm your nervous system, and foster a more resilient and stable sense of self.

Remember, you don’t need to be perfect to be worthy.
