Maria Yaglovski
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC)
Self-esteem is how we value and perceive ourselves. It's based on our opinions and beliefs about ourselves, which can feel challenging to change. We might also think of this as self-confidence. Your self-esteem can affect whether you: Like and value yourself. When your self-esteem and self-value are low, you may need some guidance and support to steer you back onto the right path where you can regain a sense of self-confidence and well being.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
Self-esteem or self-respect is the most important thing we need to make sure we have, as a family member of as an addict in recovery. An addict who is still using the addictive behaviour will not feel very much self-esteem until recovery starts.

Caitlin Marchand
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
The relationship you have with yourself is the longest and most important relationship you will have in your entire life. It can be really easy to spot our faults and get hung up on our failures, especially with messages from society and the media that tell us we are not enough. These messages lie to us about what we deserve, and spill into our relationships with ourselves and with others. I work collaboratively with clients to explore and challenge these messages about who you "should" be, so that you can identify your own goals and values, and meet your true, authentic self. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Self-esteem is shaped by more than your thoughts about yourself. It's built through nervous system experiences, attachment history, and the social and cultural messages absorbed long before you had words for them. I work with clients on all of that together, not just the internal critic, but the conditions that created it and the body that still carries them.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
My approach, relational therapy, sees self-esteem as shaped by our experiences with others. How we're treated in relationships, past and present, deeply effects how we feel about ourselves. You don't need to have traumatic experiences to have impacted your self esteem; sometimes well-meaning and loving relationships still don't happen give us what we needed to be more positively connected to ourselves. How we're valued or not in society also matters: even if we know they're wrong, experiences of discrimination and prejudice can become internalized, leaving a mark on our self-image. I'll work with you to try to understand the unique relational world you carry, and what experiences of connection, love, validation, and acceptance you may need to support a better self esteem. My hope is that you leave therapy with new narratives, feeling more empowered and compassionate towards yourself.
Some of my clients want to revisit and reprocess past, impactful experiences that haunt their self-image. Others would rather focus on present experiences—how do self esteem issues come up in daily life now? How are they feeling in the session? Some want to explicitly discuss issues of internalized racism, sexism, transphobia, ableism, homophobia, etc. Others may not think through an identity lens, and that's okay too! My approach is client-led, so I'm always flexible to whether or not, and how deeply, you want to discuss something. So much of therapy is about finding your authentic voice, and my process always seeks to honour that.

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.

Krishna Vora
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Low self-esteem can shape how people interpret their experiences, relationships, and achievements. Individuals may struggle with harsh self-criticism, difficulty trusting their abilities, or feeling “not good enough” despite evidence to the contrary.
In therapy we explore how beliefs about self-worth developed and how they continue to influence behaviour and emotions. Through increased awareness and practical strategies, clients can build a more balanced and supportive relationship with themselves.

Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
If you struggle to see yourself positively, you may be comparing yourself to others, engaging in negative self-talk, or internalizing negative behaviours directed towards you. If healthy self-esteem fails to develop, it's likely due to negative influences affecting your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs about yourself. The good news is that you don't have to continue believing the lies that keep you in a state of low self-esteem. I'm here to help you break free from negative self-talk and feel good about yourself.

Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Self-Esteem involves an individual's perception of their worth or personal value. When your self-esteem is too high or too low, that could be harmful. Excessively high self-esteem can be linked with narcism, but excessively low self-esteem can be linked with depression. Self-esteem is important for your motivation and success in life. Signs of low self-esteem are negative outlooks in life, lack of confidence, inability to express needs, focusing only on weaknesses, or excessive feelings of shame, depression, or anxiety. Therapy can help address the maladaptive thoughts linked to one's self-esteem and help develop new patterns of thought.

Steph Paolucci
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, Registered Yoga Teacher
Poor self-esteem can make it challenging to live the life you want. It would be important to identify the reasons behind the low self-esteem and the mechanisms that have made it linger in you. The ultimate goal with me would be to reduce the negative self-talk that can occur on a daily basis. Challenging and fostering more positive opinions of self can increase self-compassion, which makes a tremendous difference in how one feels on a day-to-day basis. I would help you develop and practice techniques that increase your self-love and acceptance of self, ultimately working towards an increased self-esteem.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
If you see yourself as less-than, unworthy, or insignificant—if the voice in your head is relentlessly critical and every comparison confirms your inadequacy—you're not weak or broken. You learned these beliefs, usually from trauma that taught you your value depended on performance, approval, or being small. In our work together, you'll experience genuine acceptance and compassion as we challenge the lies you've internalized. We'll explore where these beliefs originated, build empowering inner narratives to replace the criticism, and develop resilience through consistent validation and encouragement. Your worth isn't something you earn—it's something you reclaim. You deserve to see yourself truthfully: enough, valuable, worthy.

Sarah Glinski
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
How you perceive and feel about yourself is a key indicator of how happy and emotionally stable you are. You may be feeling insecure, critical, helpless, incompetent or unlovable. I work with clients to explore the root of these beliefs and challenge them. This allows my clients to unlearn thoughts and beliefs that are harmful and limiting while learning to genuinely love and appreciate themselves and the value that they bring to the world. I would love to hear from you to determine if I can help you re-imagine how you see yourself. Reach out to book a free consultation.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We live in a fast paced world with many demands upon us. It can feel impossible to keep up, and comparison with others, with our ideal images of ourselves, and our hopes can often steal our sense of being "enough" or "too much." Work with me to learn about what values you hold, which of those you want to keep and invest in, and how you can show up in a way that makes you feel an internal sense of pride. In time this inner compass becomes stronger and stronger, allowing self assuredness and confidence to take over.

Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
