Self-esteem

Jan Stone, a licensed New Mexico clinical counselor, specializes in telehealth counseling tailored to clients struggling with self-esteem issues, using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. Self-esteem challenges often stem from internal conflicts between various parts of the self—some critical and judgmental, others vulnerable and seeking acceptance. Jan helps clients across Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Las Cruces explore these parts with compassion, fostering understanding and healing from within. Her approach offers a unique and effective pathway to rebuilding confidence and self-worth, making her a trusted resource in New Mexico mental health.

Through IFS therapy, Jan guides clients in identifying the inner voices that contribute to low self-esteem, such as the harsh inner critic or the part that feels unworthy or flawed. Instead of trying to suppress or ignore these parts, Jan encourages clients to engage with them gently, uncovering the protective intentions behind their behavior. This process helps clients develop a stronger connection with their core Self—a calm, compassionate inner presence that can lead healing and growth. As an experienced Albuquerque counselor and telehealth therapist, Jan creates a supportive environment where clients feel safe to explore and transform these internal dynamics.

Jan’s telehealth services make this in-depth therapeutic work accessible to individuals throughout New Mexico. Whether seeking an Albuquerque therapist or a Las Cruces therapist, clients benefit from the flexibility and comfort of remote sessions, which can be especially important for those struggling with feelings of vulnerability. Telehealth counseling allows clients to engage consistently and at their own pace, fostering lasting improvements in self-esteem.

Jan Stone’s IFS-informed telehealth counseling is a valuable option within the Albuquerque mental health, Santa Fe mental health, and Las Cruces mental health communities. Her compassionate, personalized approach helps clients move beyond self-doubt toward a more integrated and empowered sense of self. By addressing the root causes of low self-esteem, Jan supports clients in building resilience and cultivating lasting emotional well-being.
