Discover the roots of low self-esteem and learn how professional therapy can help you heal from past traumas and rebuild your sense of worth and confidence.
• Do you feel good about yourself?
• Would you say that you're a good person?
• Worth knowing, loving, employing, or befriending?
It's important for your mental health and well-being to have sufficient self-esteem. Poor self-esteem, when you answer "no" to some or most of the above questions, can make it difficult for you to live a full life and stand up for your own worth.
Important to Understand: What causes someone to have low self-esteem? It's not a lack of positive qualities, as many strong, interesting, successful people still struggle with feelings of poor self-esteem.
Your low self-esteem may be rooted in past traumas or unconscious beliefs, causing problems that can be difficult to understand.
At Nugent Family Counseling Center, our team of mental health and psychiatry experts, under the leadership of Dr. Geoff Nugent, work with new and existing patients to break the negative cycle of low self-esteem.

When you pair with one of our providers, you explore the underlying causes of your low self-esteem, and start the process of healing and reclaiming your sense of inner worth and confidence.
Self-esteem issues are often rooted deep in your past.
There may have been a time in your childhood or early life when you felt insecure in your caregivers' love and presence.
This insecurity can cause you to turn inward on yourself, believing yourself to be insufficient or undeserving of love.
Long-term Impact: If this happened to you, you might still struggle to see yourself as worthy or deserving, even as a highly accomplished adult.
Other traumas that occur later in your life can also negatively impact your self-esteem, even if you had positive self-esteem in childhood.
