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.

Hira Imam
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, RP, RCC, CCC
The way we see ourselves impacts our entire lives. Being a person of colour growing up in Canada - I never realized how much western society dictated my perception of myself. And growing up as Pakistani Muslim in Canadian society was a whole other added layer. I support BIPOC and culturally diverse individuals in discovering and connecting with their perception of who they are and ultimately feeling confident in their sense of self. *Free 15 min Consultation Phone Call*

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
We all struggle with our ability to truly love ourselves, unconditionally, as we are. We are born connected to our intrinsic sense of self-worth and lovability but slowly lose touch with it as we strive to adapt for connection. Life is a journey back to that core place where we don't question our self-worth. In the Somatic Psychotherapy system self-worth is knowing our value simply based on the fact we exist, connected to our being self. Self-esteem is connected to our doing self, how good we feel about our performance in our roles in life, our self-confidence. Both are equally important. Our goal in therapy is to connect to both in our body; emotionally and physically and find a balance between the two.

Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Low self-esteem can affect how we view ourselves, our relationships, and our ability to make confident choices. It often develops through repeated criticism, difficult life experiences, trauma, or long-standing emotional patterns. I provide a safe and encouraging space where individuals can explore these experiences without judgment.
My work focuses on helping clients reconnect with their inner strengths, develop self-compassion, and rebuild confidence at their own pace. Through supportive counselling, emotional awareness, and practical tools, clients learn to set healthy boundaries, trust their inner voice, and move forward with greater clarity and self-worth.

If you often feel "not enough," struggle with self-doubt, or rely on others for reassurance and validation, we can explore where these patterns began and how they continue to shape your life. Our work focuses on developing a deeper sense of self-worth, self-trust, and the freedom to live more authentically. Clinical hypnotherapy may also be integrated when appropriate.

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.

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.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Struggles with self-worth often come from the messages we absorbed—not necessarily through words, but through experience. Maybe you learned you had to earn love by being helpful, quiet, perfect, or invisible. These emotional lessons get stored in deep, implicit memory and can quietly shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and what you believe you deserve. In therapy, we’ll work together to uncover and update those core beliefs—not by just talking through them, but by using experiential approaches that reach the parts of you still holding onto those old stories. Through memory reconsolidation and other non-pathologizing, emotionally engaged methods, we’ll gently reshape the way you relate to yourself, so your sense of worth becomes something you feel—not something you have to keep chasing.
