Adam Rose, MA, MBA, SHRM-SCP

The Loop Center for Social & Emotional Development

Resident in Counseling

Licensed In:
Virginia
“Hi, I’m Adam, a Resident in Counseling at the Loop Center. I work with teens, young adults (college students), adults, and couples who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, family conflict, and self-esteem. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or unsure how to move forward—therapy can be a space to gain clarity, rebuild connection, and create meaningful change. I support clients with both the daily stressors of life and deeper emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. Past experiences—especially unresolved emotional memories—often shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world.”

“Goodness of fit is important in all areas of life, especially in connecting with your therapist. If you are going through life always wondering if others are judging you as much as you are judging you, therapy can be a time to turn off that noise and focus on self-compassion. As a licensed psychologist who works with adults, I have specialties in eating disorders, body image concerns, self-esteem, and women’s mental health. Over the course of my experiences, I have also developed a particular interest in working with college and graduate students, as well as young professionals on adjustment issues, and IVF support. I also provide fertility consultations for recipients of egg, sperm, or embryo donations.”

“Do thoughts about food, your body, or your worth consume you, leaving you exhausted and uncertain about what comes next? Are you just trying to stay afloat while everyone else seems to have it figured out? Are your emotions so intense that it feels like you might burst from the pain, and you feel desperate for a way out, or do you work hard to keep them locked up tightly? Do you hold on to old experiences or painful memories that make you feel stuck, even when you want to move forward? If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. With expert support, you can recover from eating disorders, anxiety, depression, self-harm, and trauma.”

Hamm Counseling

LPC

Licensed In:
Texas
“I specialize in helping people disentangle from religious beliefs that no longer serve them, find ways to navigate climate change distress, and overcome the stuckness of anxiety. Many of my clients are deeply feeling people who care a lot about the world and the people around them, but struggle to find inner calm and to know their inner values and goals. We'll work together to peel off the layers of the expectations of others, and allow your own inner voice to shine through. Often the people I work with experience a harsh inner voice that judges them for many of their choices, so our work is also about rebuilding your relationship with yourself into one based on kindness and care.”

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.
