Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Our overall wellbeing is affected by our level of self-esteem...to what degree we value ourselves as worthy of respect, are self-confident, are able to use our voice to set our boundaries and ask for our needs to be met. Negative thoughts we carry about ourselves at our core can cause our self-esteem to be low. The goal of therapy is to understand these core beliefs we hold about ourselves and reframe them or alter them in line with the present so that we can engage with life in a healthy way that brings us peace and happiness.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Did you know that self esteem is directly connected to self acceptance? Did you know that issues like confidence, identity and your value can be diminished by things like past trauma and anxiety disorders? Sometimes it's valuable to look at your life to find out why your self esteem is low before you try to improve it. It seems to be more successful that way.

Carlos "Charlie" Garcia
Registered Psychotherapist, RMHC, CCC, MSc, CCTP
Self-esteem isn’t just about confidence. It’s about acceptance. It’s what you actually see when you look at yourself in the mirror.
It shows up in how you see that person, how you relate to others, the boundaries you set, the choices you make, and in that internal dialogue you carry with you every day.
Sometimes it looks like overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or feeling like you’re not enough. Even when you’re doing everything right, it can feel like you don’t really deserve it, or that at some point people will realize who you really are and leave.
We can work on understanding where that comes from, how those patterns developed, and how to shift them so you can feel more grounded in who you are, trust yourself more, and move through your life and relationships with more clarity and confidence, because you deserve to feel and live as the person you already are.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed approach, issues with self-esteem and self-worth are manifestations of unresolved trauma that has resulted in becoming disconnected and feeling unworthy, broken, incomplete or not enough. The work we can do together will include helping you better understand yourself, developing self-love, self-compassion, self-forgiveness, and self-acceptance, and processing the unresolved trauma so you can ultimately reconnect to yourself.

Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
When we don't have a strong feeling of self esteem, it is difficult to live in line with our values. Then we use that behaviour to beat ourselves up, use it as evidence against any idea of self-worth. Working to uncover some of the causes of this lack of self-worth can show us where to focus to build a growing experience of living with integrity. We no longer feel we have to be perfect to accept ourselves and can be patient as me make mistakes and learn as we go. Such is life.

Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
Low self-esteem often develops from long-standing patterns of self-criticism, perfectionism, or early experiences that shaped how you understand your worth. It can show up as chronic doubt, shame, or feeling “not good enough,” and may contribute to anxiety, depression, or even addictive coping. Using Internal Family Systems and Compassion-Focused Therapy, I help clients explore these inner beliefs with curiosity and warmth—understanding the protective parts that formed over time and learning to relate to themselves with greater kindness.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
Low self-esteem often roots in childhood experiences where parts of you were rejected or deemed unacceptable. This work reconnects you with your inherent worth—not as an intellectual concept, but as a felt sense in your body. Through expressive arts and somatic presence, you reclaim the authenticity that was hidden beneath protective masks. This is the foundation for genuine confidence and self-trust.

Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Low self-esteem can quietly shape how you see yourself and what you believe you deserve—from relationships to career to everyday choices. Together, we’ll uncover the early experiences and internal narratives that have shaped your sense of worth, while practicing new ways of relating to yourself with honesty and compassion. My approach combines insight and nervous-system awareness to help you feel more grounded, confident, and capable of moving through life with a steadier sense of self.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Self-esteem affects both the mind and body, often showing up as tension, self-criticism, or a sense of disconnection from one’s own worth. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals explore and express emotions, reconnect with their strengths, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-acceptance, confidence, and inner resilience.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Self-esteem is complicated, and we should talk to see if my training is the right approach for you. But when people feel unsafe or anxious within their own bodies, it can be pretty easy to start looking at yourself with wariness, judgment, or shame.
Somatic Experiencing in this case seeks to help you feel safer in your body, to handle any old feelings of danger so you can feel more vital and alive. Dare I say, we can even take small steps towards enjoying the feeling of life.
Once there is enjoyment, and awareness of that enjoyment, self-esteem starts looking much less fixed.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Low self-esteem can shape how you see yourself, what you tolerate, the choices you make, and how confidently you show up in relationships and everyday life. I can help you understand where these beliefs began, challenge the patterns that continue to reinforce them, and become more certain, assertive, and comfortable in your own skin.

Olivia Fermi
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RTC, ConRes Cert
Together we'll look at both sides of self-esteem -- your self image and your relationships with others. I will support you to look at family of origin, culture of origin, and religious programming to understand how your sense of self and of boundaries has been conditioned. With understanding you'll come to a place where new choices are natural. Homework between sessions will help you integrate healthier self-esteem. I'll be there with you as you come into your genuine self with authenticity.
