Issues with self-esteem are quite common in our current environment. I work with clients to identify the factors that contribute to their self-concept and to work on identifying effective ways to build self-esteem through identifying values, setting healthy boundaries, and shifting ineffective behavior patterns.
Self-esteem, or lack thereof, stems from a variety of places. The relationship with one's Self, an awareness of the inner dialogue, and clear goals for change can be a good place to start for those suffering from low self-esteem.
We all struggle with self-esteem at times, it is normal to feel this way. A therapist can help you work towards increasing your self-esteem and becoming more confident.
Self-esteem often feels like a mysterious thing to me. When I think on it, I'm left feeling like a perpetual motion machine that has to find a way to power itself. In physics, this is an impossibility - but in human life, it's an absolute necessity. Without discovering and fostering a capacity for true self-love, we're constantly at the mercy of a world that tests us and finds us lacking. How, then, can we practice trusting ourselves? How can we learn to feel compassionate towards ourselves, irrespective of who we happen to be on a given day?
I am a licensed mental health practitioner with years of experience supporting clients with a variety of mental health concerns. If you are struggling with self esteem I can support you with a variety of highly effective therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Considered the gold standard in mental health therapy, CBT is an evidence based therapy with a long and positive history for its high degree of effectiveness in treating a broad range of mental health concerns; Although you do not need to have a mental health condition to benefit from CBT. With principles that are richly grounded in research, CBT guides you through a structured process in reframing the thoughts that underly emotional distress in favour of those that will help you achieve the results you want in all areas of life. This form of therapy has a proven record of achieving long term results through consistent practice. Working in partnership with me as your therapist, CBT will teach you how to become your own therapist — through the development of self awareness and a commitment to truth seeking. The coping skills you develop will help you gain greater control of your emotions, improve your self beliefs and relationships, and allow you to achieve your goals in tangible ways.

Identify and release the thinking patterns and judgments that block you from living in your fullest expression. Create a life that is in alignment with what's most important to you.
Your self-esteem is how much you like, value, and appreciate yourself. Unfortunately for men of all backgrounds, feeling "less than" is a common problem.
For men, a typical solution to low self-esteem is to try and accomplish more, become more successful, acquire more external signs of worth. But, no matter how much money or success you have, your self-esteem is an inside job. With the right tools and support, you can improve your self-esteem and live a more fulfilled life.
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.
Self esteem impacts how you feel about your self and your abilities. What we believe about ourselves informs how we make sense of the world around us and how we behave. Healthy self esteem is important for rewarding relationships. I use a combination of therapeutic interventions to help you improve your understanding of and compassion for yourself.

In counseling sessions, individuals frequently express struggles with low self-esteem, viewing themselves and their abilities as insignificant. These sessions demonstrate acceptance, compassion, and the cultivation of empowering inner beliefs. Trauma often underlies these feelings, leading individuals to devalue themselves in their external environment, leading to self-criticism and comparisons. Low self-esteem can significantly impact confidence and motivation, requiring ongoing reinforcement. Throughout this journey, you will be shown compassion, encouragement, and validation as you gain deeper insight and learn strategies to enhance your resilience.
Struggles with self esteem are all too human. I believe that therapy offers us the space to engage in a meaningful relationship and learn to feel better about ourselves, empowering us to more fully lead the lives that we deserve.
