Supporting you with your self-esteem, through a specific self-esteem building process, I'm here to help grow your self-esteem to feel better about being you in the world.
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
When our self-esteem is low it can feel like everyone else in the world is 'getting it' but us. To my mind, low self-esteem, self-judgement, shame and isolation all co-exist cosily together and create fertile ground for each other. Because self-judgement will undermine our self-esteem, and lead to us feeling ashamed of ourselves. This happy combination then naturally leads us to draw inwards, away from the gaze of the world around us, and into isolation where nobody can see how 'worthless' we are (or believe ourselves to be).
Addressing this inner critic or inner judge is one of the keys to reclaiming our self-esteem.
Marriage and Family Therapist, Master of Counselling - Certified Member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA).
n individual therapy, my primary objective is to empower clients by assisting them in discovering their inherent strengths, ultimately fostering positive change and enhancing their overall quality of life. Through the utilization of diverse therapeutic modalities, I endeavor to cultivate empathy, free from judgment, and create a safe space where clients can explore their experiences openly.
I work on the client's relationship with self, using attachment theory, and restoring trust and joy in their life. Working with the five love languages, we learn how to create shared meaning and experiences to promote strong inner self-esteem and positive relationships. We discover ways to ehance the relationship between our inner and outer world while ensuring we work as a team to promote wellness and positive self image in the client's world.
Self-esteem issues can result in feelings of inadequacy, low self-worth, and a lack of confidence. This can have a profound impact on life and bring with it a sense powerlessness. I work with you to discover the root causes and the ways in which it has manifested. This can help with self-awareness and compassion, supporting you to connect, grow and empower the changes needed to live a full life beyond the hidden inner constraints that low self-esteem holds.
