Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Low self-esteem rarely announces itself clearly. More often it shows up as overworking, over-apologising, difficulty saying no, or a quiet sense that you have to earn your place in every room you enter. I work with people to understand where that belief came from and gently build something more honest in its place, not toxic positivity, but a real and grounded sense of who they actually are.

Counsellor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 40 years
Self-esteem is developed from Unconditional Love, which we did not receive. Instead, all the PMES abandonment lead us to believe being un-loved was our fault. This is self-hate, which erodes our will & serenity. Developing the Loving Parent Voice heals & provides self-confidence. (Blog : 2011)

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.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
Our relationship with ourselves can shape how we navigate nearly every area of life. When self-esteem is low, you may find yourself being overly critical of yourself, doubting your abilities, or looking to others for validation and reassurance.
In therapy, we can explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped how you see yourself, helping you develop greater self-compassion, confidence, and trust in your own worth.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Self-esteem concerns can show up as persistent self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or a feeling of not being “enough,” no matter how much you achieve or how hard you try. You might find yourself second-guessing decisions, comparing yourself to others, or feeling disconnected from your innate worth. Often, these patterns develop over time through our early experiences, relationships, and internalized messages about your value.
In our work together, we’ll explore the roots of these beliefs and how they continue to shape the way you see yourself today. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll pay attention to both the emotional and nervous system patterns that maintain self-criticism and low self-worth. We’ll focus on developing a compassionate, more embodied sense of self-acceptance and internal safety.
I draw from approaches such as IFS, ACT, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll work on reducing self-criticism, strengthening self-compassion, and building a stronger sense of self-worth that isn’t dependent on external validation.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Heartsong Counselling
Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
When self‑doubt becomes loud or you feel disconnected from your own worth, it can be hard to see the strengths that others see in you so easily. In our work together, you stay at the center of your growth while I walk beside you, offering calm, grounded support as we sort through what feels too heavy to hold alone. With a gentle, intuitive approach rooted in transpersonal counselling, IFS, and Jungian influences, we explore the beliefs and experiences that have shaped how you see yourself. You don’t have to rebuild your confidence on your own; I’m here to help you reconnect with your inner steadiness and a more compassionate sense of who you are.

Ajay Sahota
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
When we lack healthy boundaries, we can allow others to bring negativity and stress into our lives and thoughts. Together we will explore what it is that makes you allow other to burden you with negativity with special attention to that inner voice, or inner thought, that tells you that you are not worthy of respect and safety. I look forward to discovering ways to connect you with your inner wisdom and nurture your self-esteem and self-image.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with self-esteem, you may carry a quiet narrative that you are not enough. You might second-guess your decisions, compare yourself to others, or feel that your value depends on performance, approval, or appearance. Over time, this internal dialogue can shape how you show up in relationships, work, and leadership.
At Selah Counselling, we approach self-esteem with depth and compassion. Low self-worth is often rooted in early attachment experiences, repeated criticism, trauma, or chronic stress. Together, we explore where these beliefs began and gently challenge the patterns that keep them in place. We focus on strengthening self-awareness, regulating the nervous system, and building a stable identity that is not dependent on external validation. Our goal is to help you develop confidence that is grounded, resilient, and aligned with your true strengths and values.

Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Struggles with self‑esteem often come from long‑standing patterns—internalized messages, protective parts, and nervous system responses that once helped you cope but now hold you back. In therapy, I help you explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, using somatic awareness, mindfulness, parts work, CBT, and humanistic approaches to gently shift how you relate to yourself. Together, we strengthen self‑regulation, soften harsh inner narratives, and reconnect you with a more grounded, confident sense of identity. My aim is to help you feel more aligned with your strengths, more trusting of your inner voice, and more able to show up authentically in your life.

Ty Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, RP
Sometimes it can feel like you don't have the confidence to escape the situations or maybe you've thought to yourself, "If only I could speak up more" or "If only I had done these things, then..." These thoughts bring more shame, guilt, and doubt into yourself and can be tough to escape, but I am here to help you work through these things and to build up a new sense of self again.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Many struggles with self-esteem are rooted in a deeper belief of “not being good enough,” which often develops in early environments where one’s true self was not fully accepted. Instead of focusing on boosting confidence through achievement or approval, I help clients reconnect with a more stable sense of self-worth that isn’t dependent on external validation. Together, we explore these underlying narratives, approach them with compassion rather than judgment, and support a shift toward greater authenticity and a more grounded sense of self.
