Does This Sound Familiar?
● You often compare yourself to others and end up feeling “not enough”.
● You find yourself seeking external validation to feel okay about yourself.
● You over-give in relationships and feel guilty when saying “no”.
● You fear that speaking your truth will lead to rejection or criticism.
● Self-criticism makes you hyper-fixate on your weaknesses, flaws, or mistakes.
● Maybe you often experience imposter syndrome or chronic self-doubt.
● Criticism or interpersonal conflict leave you questioning your worth.
● Low self-esteem holds you back from opportunities or relationships you truly want.
Let’s Rebuild Your Confidence
Evidence-based therapy to improve self-esteemIf you find yourself constantly feeling worried about letting people down, guilty when asserting your needs, or undeserving of what you truly want in life, you may be experiencing low self-esteem. Low self-esteem often shows up as a harsh inner critic that tells you that you’re “not good enough”, that you’re falling behind, or that you’re fundamentally flawed or unlovable.
If this sounds familiar, I’m here to help. At Reveal Psychotherapy, I offer accessible, virtual therapy for women who are ready to take back control of their mental health. My goal is to empower you to overcome these cycles of negative self-talk so you can step into the most self-assured, confident version of yourself.
How Can Therapy Improve Your Self-Esteem?
Together, we’ll explore the narratives shaping how you see yourself and begin transforming your negative thoughts into a grounded knowing of your inherent worth and value. In our sessions, you’ll learn practical tools to quiet the inner-critic, while we work to cultivate a greater sense of self-trust and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

That constant self-talk telling you you’re not good enough doesn’t have to run the show. Therapy can help you challenge the accuracy and truthfulness of negative self-talk, and support you in replacing these thoughts with more positive, empowering perspectives.

An Evidence-Based Approach to Therapy for Self-Esteem in California
Who I helpI often work with young women who are struggling to keep up with the demands or multiple responsibilities and the high expectations they set for themselves. Many of my clients are college students or young professionals who feel held back by a lack of confidence or people-pleasing. They may look like they have it all under control, but beneath the surface, feelings of low self-esteem, inadequacy, and fear of rejection or failure are getting louder.
My approachMy goal is to help you move from insecure and people-pleasing to self-assured and empowered. In our sessions, we’ll explore the past experiences that may be influencing your experience of low self-esteem, and develop practical tools to help you quiet the inner critic and cultivate a more compassionate and empowering relationship with yourself.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Internal Family Systems, amongst others, integrating them to create a plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.
