Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
We all relate to ourselves in varied and sometimes fluctuating ways - sometimes critically and harshly, other times in more gente and forgiving ways. This relationship is influenced by past and current experiences and what we have 'taken in' from those (especially with caregivers and other important people in our lives). A punitive, demeaning stance to one's own self, which has been there for a long time and is hard to shift, is what brings many people to therapy. Both because of the suffering it inflicts internally, as well as the impact it has on the way a person relates to the external world.
If this is something you struggle with and would like to explore the option of psychotherapy to address this, please get in touch.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Low self-esteem can shape how you see yourself, what you expect from relationships, what you tolerate, and what you believe you deserve. It often develops through repeated experiences of criticism, neglect, rejection, comparison, shame, or feeling unseen. My approach is warm, reflective, and focused on helping you understand the deeper roots of how you came to relate to yourself in this way, so that you can build greater self-worth, self-trust, and confidence.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
You are not broken—you just have parts of you that forgot how worthy you are.
Low self-esteem often stems from early experiences that left parts of us believing we weren’t good enough, lovable, or deserving. These beliefs can quietly shape how we show up in relationships, work, and even how we talk to ourselves. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you connect with the parts of you that carry shame, self-doubt, or the need to constantly prove your worth. As someone who has walked this healing path myself, I know what it takes to rebuild that connection to your True Self—the part of you that knows you are enough just as you are.

Paul Shepard wrote; “The grief and sense of loss that we often attribute to a failure in our personality, is actually a feeling of emptiness where a beautiful and strange otherness should have been encountered.”
Ecotherapy and contact with nature aims to fill the void.

Anjali P.
Registered Psychotherapist, MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling, Registered Member MBACP- 408062
Low self-esteem often involves more than simply lacking confidence. It can affect relationships, decision-making, boundaries, self-expression, and the way you speak to yourself. Together, we can explore the experiences and beliefs that may have shaped your self-worth, develop greater self-understanding, and work towards a more compassionate and balanced relationship with yourself.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Struggling with self-esteem can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore your self-perception, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

John Burkin
Licensed Professional Counsellor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
I introduced treatment for self-esteem into my practice as a stand-alone goal years ago learning about this topic through research. When working with patients in the first few sessions themes will emerge and I will learn how self-esteem presents itself with them. The three areas of focus in terms of self-esteem and how I approach healing is to look at Self-Love, Self-Confidence and Self-Worth.

Mihaela Nicolaescu
Registered Psychotherapist
Self-esteem issues are often deeply rooted in past experiences, such as childhood criticism, trauma, abuse, or negative social comparisons. We begin by exploring the origins of these beliefs, identifying patterns of negative self-talk, and understanding how they developed. This can involve discussing early relationships, family dynamics, or significant life events that shaped the client’s view of themselves.
A major component of self-esteem work is fostering self-compassion and self-acceptance. Often, clients with low self-esteem are overly self-critical and harsh. I guide them through exercises that help shift their internal dialogue toward kindness and empathy, much like they would offer to a close friend. Techniques like mindfulness or compassion-focused therapy help develop this skill.

I guide clients in cultivating a kinder inner dialogue and reconnecting with their inherent worth. We explore the origins of self-criticism and work toward greater self-acceptance, authenticity, and confidence — not as a fixed state, but as an ongoing relationship with oneself rooted in compassion.

Irene Valis
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA certified Gestalt therapist, Counsellor, Life Coach
My holistic, relational approach to therapy helps women to identify negative or limiting self-beliefs about themselves in a safe, non-judgemental space. This involves parts-work where individuals develop the capability to embrace and integrate all parts of self - helping to move from self-criticism and aversion; to self-compassion and acceptance. This restored sense of awareness and wholeness awakens the calm, clarity and confidence that is already within and awaits you.

Cardiff's identity as the Welsh capital creates a therapy culture shaped by Wales's distinct national identity — including a meaningful demand for Welsh-language therapy, particularly for clients who find expressing emotional complexity most natural in their first language. Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan University maintain active clinical training programs, and the city's large student population generates sustained demand for therapists addressing academic pressure, identity, and young adult transitions. Cardiff and Vale University Health Board provides NHS mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Pontcanna, Roath, and Cardiff Bay. The city's growing diversity, driven by university populations and recent immigration, is increasing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
