Self-Esteem

Does your lack of confidence and worthiness keep getting in the way of your life or relationship? Fortunately, we all have the ability to rewire old patterns of thinking and move toward solution-focused outcomes and growth. When we feel worthy and have higher self-esteem, we open ourselves up to a world of love, hope, resiliency, belonging, possibility, and opportunity. Cultivating self-worth, esteem, and love gives us a foundation to experience a life transformation.

I believe that a healthy sense of self-worth is central to all growth and healing. I have found that time and time again, my clients' challenges come down to what it is they believe they deserve and their relationship to their own self.

If low self-esteem, people-pleasing, or perfectionism are ruining your relationships, know you're not alone. Many have faced these challenges and emerged resilient. Here's the truth: people-pleasing doesn't actually please anyone. It makes it impossible to foster genuine connection and drives us apart. But, through compassionate self-healing, we reclaim our worth and foster authentic relationships with ourselves and others.

I specialize in helping individuals overcome self-esteem challenges by addressing negative thought patterns and past experiences. I focus on building self-compassion and fostering a stronger sense of self-worth. My goal is to empower you to recognize your value and develop the confidence to navigate life with a positive, authentic mindset. Together, we’ll work toward overcoming barriers that hold you back from fully embracing who you are.

I work with clients struggling with self-esteem, helping them break free from negative self-talk and limiting beliefs. Using Narrative Therapy, we explore the stories that shape how you see yourself and work to rewrite them in a way that highlights your strengths and potential. Together, we’ll build confidence, challenge self-doubt, and help you create a more positive and empowering self-image. You are worthy of feeling good about who you are.

I specialize in helping individuals overcome self-esteem issues through personalized therapy. My approach focuses on building self-awareness, fostering positive self-talk, and cultivating resilience for lasting change.

As a therapist, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients build self-esteem by identifying and challenging negative thought patterns that contribute to low self-worth. I work with clients to recognize and reframe distorted beliefs about themselves, replacing them with more balanced and positive perspectives. Through CBT, clients learn to develop self-compassion, set realistic goals, and celebrate their achievements, fostering a healthier and more confident self-image.

Jaci works with ages 15+ to develop a stable sense of self-esteem and identity.

Jaci has been on her own self-acceptance journey for 10 years, participating in her own therapy experiences for half of that. Jaci wholly believes in offering compassion to oneself as the antidote to toxic shame and low self-esteem.

How do we feel like we are enough? It’s a simple idea that’s complex in the real world. I have experience helping clients navigate these murky waters to the source of low self-esteem and begin the healing process. Together we can discover, accept, and celebrate your authentic self while learning how to work with shame, self-criticism, and low confidence.

I love to help people improve their self-esteem and overcome negative self-talk by working with clients to recognize and challenge unhelpful beliefs that keep you feeling stuck. Together, we’ll identify patterns of negative thinking and use tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reframe those thoughts into more balanced, fair, and realistic thoughts. I’ll also support you in developing self-compassion, so you can replace your inner critic with kindness and confidence.

Low self-esteem is often a by-product of other things that happen in life, whether that be an unhappy marriage, struggles around depression and anxiety, or other internalized expectations placed on us by family, work, and society. I have experience helping my clients regain their self-esteem and learning to love who they are through self-exploration as well as gaining skills to navigate their current struggles and overall pressures of life.

It is important to have a strong sense of self-esteem and self-worth throughout our lives. I help support my clients in knowing, trusting, and believing in themselves, and in learning to have more self-compassion, prioritize self-care and increase their confidence.

I aim to work with issues surrounding self esteem by making more space for self compassion, as well as by understanding the root causes for concerns to be present. Stepping into and accepting authentic selves is an important part of this process that I hope to be able to guide you in.

I specialize in helping clients understand roots of low self-worth and how that impacts their lives. I work collaboratively with clients to begin to unpack and reframe negative patterns of thinking and identify strengths to encourage growth in confidence, in a way that doesn't feel too mushy or inauthentic.

We can be our own harshest critics at times. Our self-perception has the potential to shape our reality and can even influence how others interact with us. I help clients with exploring their limiting beliefs, challenging negative thought patterns, assertiveness training, and fostering self-compassion.

The weight of societal pressures may cause us to doubt ourselves and second-guess our decisions. As you connect more deeply with who you are, your own self awareness will inspire confidence and clarity in your values, desires, and boundaries. This awareness acts as our anchor when our self esteem is challenged. My hope is to provide a safer place for you to cultivate that deeper connection with yourself. Call or email me today to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.

Low self-esteem can make you feel like you’re stuck in a cycle of self-doubt and negativity, questioning your worth and potential. But you have the power to change this narrative. In our sessions, we’ll work together to rebuild your self-confidence, helping you see yourself as the capable, valuable person you truly are. Imagine a life where you approach each day with a sense of self-assurance and purpose. I’m here to help you uncover your strengths and embrace confidence.

When the way we perceive ourselves becomes unhealthy, it is difficult to manage and respond appropriately to challenges in life. I help clients learn how to befriend themselves by nurturing and accepting who they are in order to find internal well-being.
