Self Esteem
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.

Self Esteem
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
True self-esteem isn't about constant confidence; it’s about having a grounded, compassionate relationship with all parts of yourself. Drawing on over 15 years of experience, I help you move beyond the 'inner critic' to understand the roots of the shame or self-doubt that holds you back.
We explore how your sense of worth may have been shaped by early life experiences and survival strategies that no longer serve you. By using a Parts Work lens, we work to unburden the parts of you that feel 'not enough,' replacing old patterns of self-criticism with a resilient sense of self-worth. My goal is to help you cultivate an internal security that allows you to show up authentically in your life and relationships.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Low or shaky self-esteem is rarely fixed by superficial positive thinking; it's often rooted in old relational injuries and pervasive cultural narratives that tell you that you don't belong or aren't enough. Through a gentle, somatic lens in my online therapy practice, I help you uncover and witness the protective stories that cloud your true value. As we slowly unpack these patterns, you will begin to build authentic self-worth and self-awareness from the inside out.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed approach, issues with self-esteem and self-worth are manifestations of unresolved trauma that has resulted in becoming disconnected and feeling unworthy, broken, incomplete or not enough. The work we can do together will include helping you better understand yourself, developing self-love, self-compassion, self-forgiveness, and self-acceptance, and processing the unresolved trauma so you can ultimately reconnect to yourself.

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.

Self Esteem
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.

Aliya Amarshi

Low self-esteem often stems from internalized messages and early experiences. Using a blend of parts work and somatic approaches, I help clients reconnect with their inherent worth and develop a more compassionate, empowered relationship with themselves.

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.

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.
