Yep, Get out of your own way by Philip Goldberg is a bit old but good. If your a women try The Courage to Be Yourself:by Sue Patton Thoele.
But the best therapy is to talk with friends and get into some sports and hobbies so you can "watch yourself" get better. This will help you realize your better than you think you are.
