Ellie Mental Health

LCPC

Licensed In:
Idaho, Washington
“I work with individuals who may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck. Many of the clients I support are navigating life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, loneliness, grief, or difficulties understanding and meeting their own needs. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply feel that something needs to change, therapy can be a place to gain clarity, develop new tools, and feel supported. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest, vulnerable, and empowered to move forward. I work with couples and families who are navigating challenges such as communication struggles, relationship stress, life transitions, conflict, and feeling disconnected from one another. I support couples who want to strengthen their relationship, rebuild understanding, and create healthier patterns of connection. Together, we can work toward greater understanding, healthier relationships, and meaningful change.”

“I work with adults across Los Angeles and California who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, and emotional burnout. Many of my clients grew up in strict or harmful religious environments and now carry religious trauma, spiritual abuse wounds, or shame tied to identity, sexuality, or worth. Others live with complex PTSD, childhood trauma, or attachment wounds that show up as people pleasing, perfectionism, emotional numbness, or feeling unsafe in relationships. You may feel stuck in survival mode, disconnected from your body, or exhausted from holding it all together. If your past still feels present in your nervous system, relationships, or sense of self, you do not have to heal alone. Together we create space for safety, clarity, and lasting change.”

Licensed In:

“You feel like your emotions are too much for other people. You struggle to speak up and feel confident in yourself. As a result, you keep a lot in and just try your best to put a smile on your face and keep going. You often wonder if other people feel this way. You think that there is something wrong with you for having a big heart and caring too much in a world that seems scary and cruel. It may be difficult to feel connected to others and lonely. You're not sure if anyone really cares as much as you do. You feel if people were to really see you, they would not want to be around you and will leave.”

Generaciones Counseling

LCSW

Licensed In:
Arizona, Utah
“I work with adult Latine individuals who are looking to connect to their emotional needs, better understand family history, and heal trauma wounds. As children of immigrants, childhood came with a variety of responsibilities; though many provided great skills, some continue to affect our wellbeing and adult relationships in ways that weren't anticipated. Some common challenges I work with include feeling responsible for your family's wellbeing while also navigating your own needs, trying to build a relationship where your parents can see you as an adult, setting healthy boundaries without completely cutting family out of your life, or even making sense of and healing from your childhood experiences but having a difficult time managing guilt, shame, fear, regret, anxiety, or additional emotions that come up when revisiting childhood memories.”

LCSW

Licensed In:

“I work with children (ages 4+), teens, and adults navigating trauma, grief, attachment challenges, and emotional or behavioral difficulties. Therapy with me—at any age—is about showing up fully and being seen. You don’t need to censor yourself in session. Come as you are—unfiltered, imperfect, unsure, angry, or overwhelmed. You can vent, cry, swear, joke, or say what you’ve never felt safe saying. I’m here for you. I like to do this work together. I want you to feel safe saying when something doesn’t sit right, when you disagree, or when you just want to try something different. Not every conversation will be comfortable, and you might not always love what I say — and that’s okay. I’m here through it all, whether we’re laughing, sitting in the hard stuff, or sorting through the mess together.”

“I believe that no matter where you’re starting from—transformation is possible. Within the safety of a therapeutic relationship, I will work with you to develop new ways to respond to life's challenges. Therapy is most successful within the context of a strong therapeutic relationship. This means that, as your therapist, I work to build an atmosphere that’s rooted in safety, openness, and mutual respect, in which you feel heard and understood. I am currently completing training in EMDR through the Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy, an approach that can help reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic experiences over time.”

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.
