Dr. Sorensen considers her most important
professional contributions to be not only her work on
understanding the inner experience of those with low self-esteem, but also the incorporation of those
insights into the development of a highly effective recovery program for low
self-esteem.
She currently provides psychotherapy by Skype across the United States and presently
in 15 other countries.

Comments: Dear Marilyn
I don't know how to emphasise enough how having the telephone sessions with you has made such a vast difference in my life. I'm now able to get on with living my life without questioning everyone, everything, every comment, every invitation, every thought that passes through my head even. The space that I now have in my previously overloaded, paranoid mind has let me embrace all of the aspects of my life that I had forgotten I enjoyed so much!
My journal has become the creative outlet it was when I was 17 (before the LSE really took a took hold of me) and is full of drawings, quotes, dreams, lists of my favorite things...just little things, but those little things that I spent 15 years believing were "irrelevant, time-wasting, stupid, insignificant aspects of me that I should stop celebrating and be ashamed of. NOT NOW!!
My kids were watching me tear out some pics of beautiful hydrangeas and violets from a mag last week, and as I stuck them into my journal, James said, "Mum, you're so kooky but I love it!" That made so much sense and brought a huge beam to my face--and I know that if I had not taken the leap to starting therapy, that journal would have been full of questioning, analysing, doubting, negativity for another year of my life....So, in no small way, Marilyn, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! You are such a calming and compassionate woman, and I am in awe of your understanding and of how you make sense of the crazy world of the LSE victim. It's my privilige to have found your books and an honor to have worked closely with you these past months.
Again, Marilyn, thank you for being such a fantastic guiding light and a beacon in some of the darkest times, both in the brilliant books and once we started to talk on the phone. It would be fantastic to meet up in person sometime--it's on my wish list.
Vicky,
London, England

Comments from a reader:
I have just finished reading Breaking the Chain of Low Self-Esteem. Two weeks ago my Rabbi told me that you cannot cure yourself until you know you are sick. I think you would call the same thing "awareness". Both the Rabbi and to a greater degree, your book, have not only made me aware, but I was on the path of rehabilitation before I had finished reading Chapter 1. I am 62 years old and have lived in the wilderness of low self esteem. Your book is the harbinger of change. Now I will read it again.
Thank you most sincerely,
David, Hollywood, Florida
