“I specialize in working with teens and young adults. Whether they are experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, school struggles, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, self-harm, or family conflict, we explore unhelpful patterns and build practical skills for balance, focus, healthier relationships, and self-compassion—tools that fit real life and make a meaningful difference. I use a mix of modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, and strength-based approaches. I above all want patients to understand that progress isn’t a straight line, that their struggles aren’t their fault, and that it is possible to feel happier, stronger, and more capable even after setbacks.”

LCSW, LCADC, CCS

New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania
“I work with parents, partners, or adult children who have a loved one struggling with addiction or other significant family/relationship dysfunction and want to determine whether to remain connected to them or end the relationship. Loving someone who is struggling with unhealthy behaviors can leave us with extremely mixed and overwhelming emotions. I help people learn to set boundaries, overcome trauma, and heal - regardless of whether their loved one is ready to heal or not. I help people regain confidence and feel deserving of their own needs and limits after years of putting themselves last. I help them learn to feel comfortable pulling back from over-functioning which often keeps us in inauthentic interactions with our loved ones. This can be difficult but not impossible. Many of my clients felt other therapies still left them stuck in guilt and uncertainty.”

“Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and deeply self-aware. From the outside, they often appear to have it together, but internally they may feel exhausted from carrying responsibility, managing expectations, or trying to be who others needed them to be. Some are recovering from religious trauma, spiritual abuse, high-control relationships, or family systems that taught them to prioritize belonging over authenticity. Others are navigating life transitions, identity shifts, perfectionism, anxiety, shame, estrangement, or a persistent sense of disconnection from themselves. They often tell me, "I understand why I am the way I am, but I don't know how to actually live differently." My work is especially helpful for people who are ready to move beyond insight alone and begin building the internal safety, self-trust, and flexibility needed to create a life that feels more aligned, embodied, and their own.”

Haven of Healing for Youth & Families

LISW-CP, LICDC

Licensed In:
Florida, Idaho, Indiana, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Vermont
“I work with adolescents and adults who may look like they’re handling everything on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or unsure of what comes next. Many of my clients are navigating trauma or PTSD, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship challenges, major life transitions, career uncertainty, identity concerns, or the emotional and physical changes that can accompany menopause. I’m especially well suited for clients who want more than a place to vent. You may want to better understand why you think, feel, or respond the way you do, recognize patterns, learn practical tools, and be appropriately challenged along the way. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin exactly where you are and work together to determine where you want to go.”

Wellspring Counseling Center

M.S., LPC-C

Licensed In:
Oklahoma
“I am passionate about inclusivity, especially in working with individuals from a variety of backgrounds such as those who are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, minority status, and so much more. Therapy is not an easy process, and it can be difficult to realize that you are struggling in the first place. However, if you are feeling stuck, unsure, or dealing with unexpected change, I am here to remind you it does not have to be your forever. By working with you to explore both your history and your present to reveal the root of the issues you face, I will work with you to empower you with confidence, resiliency, courage, and hope. My background in mental health has focused on working with college students as well as those in a time of transition in their lives. I often see those with anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, religious trauma, and many other presenting concerns. I deeply appreciate the variety and uniqueness you bring to the therapy space and will meet you where you are!”

Together, we explore both present stressors and the deeper roots shaping your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Therapy is structured, collaborative, and focused on insight and forward movement. If you value clarity, accountability, and real progress, we may be a strong fit.”

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.
