Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
When working with clients struggling with self-esteem issues, I help them uncover the deeper beliefs and life experiences that have shaped how they see themselves. Together, we explore the origins of self-criticism and patterns of comparison, while fostering self-compassion and a more balanced inner dialogue. My approach blends insight-oriented therapy with practical tools to help clients challenge limiting narratives, recognize their strengths, and build a sense of worth that isn’t dependent on external validation. The goal is to help them develop a more grounded, authentic confidence — one rooted in self-understanding and acceptance.

Many of us are conditioned in different ways that result in us not loving ourselves and having low self-esteem. Working through our conditionings leads us to more self confidence, self love and more fulfilling relationships.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Mental health is the foundation of how we think, feel, and function in our daily lives. When emotional or psychological challenges arise, they can affect everything from focus and memory to motivation, relationships, and self-worth. Hypnotherapy can help process and release unresolved emotions tied to past trauma (physical, emotional, or psychological), grief, loss, and relationship wounds, offering a gentle, effective approach to support the mind, ease distress, and promote lasting emotional balance.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Low self-esteem can feel like self-doubt, harsh inner criticism, comparison with others, difficulty recognizing your worth, feeling like you don't fit in, shrinking down, dimming your light, or a tight throat that stops you from speaking up. There may be a beliefs or feeling like you must earn love, acceptance, or belonging. You may find yourself shrinking, people-pleasing, or carrying a quiet belief that you are not enough just as you are. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field in mind to help release the deeper roots of self-worth wounds. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports you in reconnecting with your inherent value, sense of inner safety, and authentic confidence in being yourself.

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.

Dena Marie Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, RCC
A harsh inner critic, constantly second-guessing yourself, feeling like you're never quite good enough no matter what you accomplish — low self-esteem often has roots that go back further than we realize. Using EMDR, I help you reprocess the past experiences and beliefs that shaped that negative self-perception, so the old patterns lose their grip rather than just being managed with surface-level affirmations. Over time, this helps you build real self-worth, confidence, and a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Christina Harrison | Vicara Wellness |
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Holistic Coach and Practitioner | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner |
Self-worth can become tangled in achievement, relationships, appearance, approval, caregiving, or the expectations we've absorbed throughout our lives. Eventually it can become difficult to know where those expectations end and you begin. Together, we'll explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped how you see yourself while creating space for a more compassionate and authentic relationship with who you are. This work isn't about becoming someone better. It's about reconnecting with more of the person who is already there.
