Self psychology fosters an understanding of how feeling valued (and loved), feeling protected, and having a role model (or models) when very young builds self-esteem and a reassuring inner voice during tough emotional times. Self psychologist Ernest Wolf wrote “Much of the irritation of people with each other, the quarrels that tear up marriages, and the misunderstandings that lead to loss of spouse, friend, or job can be traced back to the ups and downs of self-esteem when individuals with fragile selves try to use others to make themselves feel stronger and more whole.” (Treating the Self, The Guilford Press, 1988)
