Julianne Mattson Krogstad

Headwaters of Healing Therapy, PLLC

LMFT

Licensed In:
Alaska, Minnesota, South Dakota, Wisconsin
“I work with couples who are desiring to strengthen their relationship and also who may have some stuck patterns that feel discouraging to them. I also work with adult individuals who find that despite their best efforts, they feel like they can't get to a place of peace and contentment in their relationships or even within themselves. They find themselves feeling like they are spinning their wheels, trying harder, but still not quite able to be who they know they could be. Often they are quite competent at work, but find challenges in their interpersonal relationships and find themselves caught up in remorse or self-condemnation, thinking if they could just try harder or be more consistent they would finally get it right. They often have hurts around family of origin dynamics or church systems and feel a sense of inadequacy and not measuring up. I work with clients who would like spiritual direction. This is separate from therapy and is not regulated by therapy licensing boards. This is detailed more on my website.”

Licensed In:
Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, Ohio, Wisconsin
“I work primarily with children, adults and couples who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism, neurodivergence, relationship challenges, burnout, life transitions, and the feeling of being overwhelmed by expectations that don’t always fit how their brain works. I especially enjoy working with clients who have spent years masking, second-guessing themselves, or trying to understand why certain things seem easier for others. My goal is to create a space where clients can better understand themselves without feeling like they need to “fix” who they are.”

Stephanie Schaefer, Psy.D.

OtterWell Mental Health LLC

Psychologist (Psy.D.)

Licensed In:
Oregon
“I work with high-functioning adults who look like they're managing everything well on the outside--capable, reliable, the person everyone turns to—and are quietly running on empty underneath it all. If your to-do list never ends, you say yes before you've even thought about whether you want to, or you've noticed your world shrinking, you're in the right place. Many of the people I work with are professionals and caregivers dealing with anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, or a life transition that's left them wondering what's next. You might be the one everyone else leans on, and rarely have anyone to lean on yourself. I help clients feel less overwhelmed, set boundaries without guilt, and build a life with more room in it for rest and joy--not just more responsibility.”

“I enjoy working with anyone who comes to therapy. Most of my work centers around couples who want to communicate more clearly, feel closer, or who are navigating feelings of betrayal.

Healing Harbor Therapy

LCSW

Licensed In:
Utah

Licensed In:

“I work with adults across the spectrum—LGBTQ+ clients, neurodivergent folks (ADHD/autistic), trauma survivors, people navigating kink/poly dynamics, and high achievers who look “fine” on the outside but feel fried, disconnected, or quietly miserable on the inside. Clients come to me for anxiety, depression, identity stress, burnout, relationship patterns, and major life transitions. Many are smart, self-aware, and successful on paper, but stuck in loops they can’t outthink. They’re ready for therapy that’s honest, effective, and built for real change: self-trust, boundaries, emotional regulation, identity clarity, and a life that actually fits.”

Finding support for Self Esteem

Start with the state where you will physically be during sessions, then review provider profiles for experience with self-esteem, confidence, shame, perfectionism, or relationship patterns. You can narrow your search by insurance, language, age group, and modality. If you want one-on-one support, individual therapy is often a strong place to begin.

Before you book

  • Ask about the provider’s experience with your concerns and goals.
  • Confirm availability, session fees, and your insurance coverage directly.
  • Check that the provider can work with you in each state where you will attend sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Therapy for Self-Esteem

How do I use this page to find an online therapist to help with self-esteem?

Start with the state where you will physically be during sessions, then review provider profiles for experience with self-esteem, confidence, shame, perfectionism, or relationship patterns. You can narrow your search by insurance, language, age group, and modality. If you want one-on-one support, individual therapy is the best place to begin.

What should I ask before booking?

Ask what kinds of self-esteem concerns they commonly help with, what online sessions are like, and how they approach goals such as confidence, boundaries, or self-worth. It also helps to ask about fees, insurance, session frequency, and availability. If your concerns connect to anxiety, trauma, relationships, or eating disorder issues, ask whether they treat those concerns too.

Does my online therapist have to live in my state, and what happens if I travel out of state?

Your therapist does not have to live in your state, but they need to be licensed for the state where you are physically located during each session. That is why travel can affect whether they can meet with you. Before booking, check the provider’s policy and whether they practice across states. If you travel frequently or split time between states, you can also browse therapists licensed in multiple states.

Does insurance cover online therapy for self-esteem, and how does payment usually work?

Many providers accept insurance for online therapy, but coverage depends on your plan, the provider, and the kind of service you receive. Some providers are in-network, while others offer private pay and may give you paperwork for out-of-network reimbursement. Before you book, check the session fee, copay, deductible, cancellation policy, and whether benefits differ for virtual care.

What technology or privacy setup do I need for virtual sessions?

Most online therapy appointments work best in a private location with a reliable internet connection. A computer or laptop is often ideal, though a phone or tablet may also work depending on the provider and platform. Many sessions happen by video, but phone calls, secure messaging, texting, or email may also be used depending on the provider and service. Providers may also have policies about where sessions can take place, so check ahead if privacy or location may be an issue.

When is online therapy for self-esteem not the right choice?

Online therapy may not be the best fit during an immediate crisis, when emergency support is needed, when a higher level of care is required, or when you do not have a private space or reliable internet connection. It may also be a poor fit if virtual sessions feel too distracting or unsafe in your current environment. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call or text 988 right away.

What types of telehealth services are available for self-esteem?

The best fit depends on what is affecting your self-esteem. Individual therapy is common for personal patterns, self-criticism, and confidence building. Child or teen therapy can help younger clients with bullying, identity, or school stress. Couples counseling, family therapy, and group therapy may also be helpful when relationships strongly affect self-worth.

How do I know if a therapist is a good fit for self-esteem concerns?

Look for a provider whose profile mentions self-esteem directly or related concerns such as perfectionism, shame, social anxiety, body image, people-pleasing, or difficult relationships. A good fit also depends on whether you feel understood, respected, and comfortable being honest. Many people know after the first few sessions whether the provider’s style feels supportive, practical, and aligned with their goals.

Need urgent support? Therapy Expanded is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you need urgent mental health, suicide, domestic violence, substance use, or LGBTQIA+ support, visit our crisis and mental health resources page.
