Self-concept is the absolute foundation of well-being as manifested in all forms. With the foundation of self-acceptance and self-love, life is extremely challenging. The ego will instantly manipulate one to look for love "out there" which is limited and illusory in nature. Our core and birthright is self-love and joy, however childhood trauma conceals the access to this state, instead creating a self-concept based on shame. Once the shame is transcended, we experience an automatic state of self-love which always there to begin with but had inevitably been "forgotten" due to the negative programming of adverse childhood experiences.

Movement with Steph
Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns&PsychTh
Self-esteem and self-worth tend to go hand in hand. Clients suffering from low self-esteem/self-worth may have quite harsh inner critics, which can be very hard to live with. I work collaboratively with clients to understand and unpack their sense of self. I hold space for sitting with and working through difficult and uncomfortable emotions, e.g. shame, in order to soften one's inner critic and create a more helpful view of oneself.

While we largely 'inherit' our self esteem from the developmental experience we have as children, it is not a static entity but rather an ongoing project. Psychotherapy supports clients to nurture and build the self esteem they want for their lives.
