LPC-S, LMHC

Licensed In:
Texas, Washington
“I am especially good at working with people who have tried therapy and had bad experiences but are still looking for help. I'm also particularly good at helping people who over-intellectualize their emotions. Many of my clients are highly self-aware people who understand their patterns but feel stuck anyway. If you're good at explaining your problems but bad at actually changing them, I can help you break the spiral and move forward.”

Dr. Missy Kleinz

Stardust Therapy

PhD, LPC, LPCMH, NCC

Licensed In:
Delaware, Florida, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, South Carolina
“I work with teen girls and young adult women who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by self-doubt — even when they appear capable and put together on the outside. Many are high achievers who put pressure on themselves to succeed. They overthink decisions, replay conversations, and wonder if they are “too sensitive” or “not doing enough.” They often minimize their issues for fear of being a burden, or question if their issues are important enough for therapy. Let me assure you, they are. The young women I work with often struggle with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty trusting their own voice. They are tired of holding it together and pushing through on their own. In our work together, you do not have to perform, prove, or pretend. You can show up exactly as you are.”

Waterhorse Counseling, LLC

LPC

Licensed In:
Colorado, Tennessee, Wyoming
“People often come to therapy feeling exhausted from carrying too much for too long. You may feel stuck in survival mode, disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed in relationships, struggling with trauma, grief, anxiety, dissociation, burnout, or painful patterns that keep repeating despite your insight and effort. I work with adults navigating complex trauma, attachment wounds, relational struggles, life transitions, and loss. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who have spent years “holding it together” while feeling emotionally overwhelmed underneath. I work with adults, teens, and kids as young as age 5.”

Lauren Barker

Barker Counseling, PLLC

LCMHC, LPCC, LPC

Licensed In:
North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina
“You often feel unsupported or not quite seen by others. You're there for others when they're going through a hard time, but find it hard to ask for help yourself-maybe because you don't feel worthy or don't want to be a burden. Dealing with concerns like past trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, chronic illness, body image, disordered eating, or relational stress is isolating & feels overwhelming to manage alone. You want deeper connections, but don't know where to start & fear being judged. Or if you're a therapist yourself, you may want the extra support of being in therapy! I specialize in body image/disordered eating work, as well as trauma and complex/traumatic grief. I also provide specific treatment for therapists, first responders, parents of children with eating disorders, and people becoming caregivers for loved ones.”

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.
