Self-esteem is at the core of what we do in life: in our relationships, at work, in our families, and so on. Building self-esteem is a personal path that is essential for all of us.

Self Esteem
Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Self-esteem, and confidence, can be so fragile and we can allow it to be taken from us without knowing we have a choice. If you hear a version of yourself often enough, eventually you believe it. Positive attention throughout our childhood can carry us a long way, just as unhealthy attention can be just as far reaching. We live in a society that thrusts expectation in front of us nearly constantly, and trying to live up to it can be painful and demoralising. How would you like to be able to know who you are and start living your life how you want it? Through questioning your self-beliefs, and where they come from, you can begin to feel better with who you are. By not trying to live up to standards and expectations set by others, you can find strength in doing it your way. Is low self-esteem about not being good enough, or about you trying to be somebody or something that you are not?

How we value ourselves can affect our self esteem.
If we feel negative and critical about ourselves and our abilities then we will experience low self esteem.
Low self esteem can affect how we fit in the world, how we feel with family, friends and relationships and how this impacts on us. It could spring from our childhood or adult experiences, school and friendship influences or our partners. We can sometimes feel inadequate or be made to feel inadequate by those around us and even by social media and current socio-environmental expectations.
Working with a counsellor enables you to explore where some of these influences have stemmed from. Acknowledging, accepting and moving through these feelings and looking at changing the negative inner voice, can help build your confidence and self esteem.

Claudia Behnke
Registered Psychotherapist, Ma (Psych), PGDip Psychosynthesis Psychology, Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, UKCP accredited
Self-esteem is more than just feeling good about yourself; it's a cornerstone of mental health and well-being. I offer a supportive environment to address the myriad factors that can impact your self-esteem. We work together to identify the roots of your self-perception, be they in relationships, career, or past experiences. By gaining deeper insight into these influencing factors, you'll be better equipped to challenge negative self-talk and build a more positive, empowered sense of self. The ultimate aspiration of our work is to facilitate not just momentary boosts of confidence, but a lasting foundation for self-worth.
