Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for low self-esteem and issues related to self-worth, including persistent self-criticism, feelings of inadequacy, shame, and difficulty recognising or trusting your own value. Many people I work with struggle with an internal sense of not being “enough,” which can affect relationships, decision-making, boundaries, and overall emotional wellbeing.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, providing a safe and reflective space to explore how these beliefs about the self may have developed over time. Together, we may look at early attachment experiences, relational dynamics, and internalised messages that have shaped how you see yourself and relate to others.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how experiences such as emotional neglect, criticism, rejection, or relational trauma can contribute to ongoing difficulties with self-esteem. Therapy offers a space to gently explore and begin to shift these patterns, at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you notice how self-critical beliefs and emotions are held in the body, supporting greater grounding and self-regulation. Psychoeducation may be used to deepen understanding of these processes, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional processing and reduce intensity of self-critical states.
Therapy is collaborative and focused on developing a more compassionate, stable, and realistic sense of self, supporting you to relate to yourself with greater acceptance, confidence, and ease over time.

Filipa Marques
Hypnotherapist
Initiating on the empowering journey of enhancing self-esteem is a significant step towards personal growth and fulfillment. In my specialized hypnotherapy practice, I offer a comprehensive and personalized approach to address the intricate layers of self-perception. Together, we navigate the depths of the subconscious mind, gently unveiling and challenging limiting beliefs that may be contributing to low self-esteem.
Through a series of carefully crafted hypnotherapy sessions, we delve into the root causes of self-doubt, fostering a compassionate exploration of your inner world. Utilizing advanced hypnotherapy techniques, we work collaboratively to reframe negative thought patterns, promoting a positive self-image and instilling a sense of confidence that extends into various aspects of your life.
The transformative journey towards building lasting self-esteem involves not just addressing surface-level challenges but fostering a holistic understanding of your unique strengths and capabilities. Our sessions are designed to provide a safe and supportive space where you can express and explore your emotions, encouraging a profound shift towards self-acceptance and empowerment.
Together, we unravel the layers that may be hindering your self-esteem, replacing them with a renewed sense of worth and confidence. As we navigate this transformative process, the power of hypnotherapy becomes a guiding force, helping you unlock your true potential and embark on a journey towards becoming the best version of yourself. Join me on this empowering path, where self-esteem isn't just a goal but a foundation for a more fulfilled and confident life.

Georgie Gee
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy
I think it is helpful to work on an individuals relationship to the self and how one can have misconceptions about how you are seen in the world and how to develop a better appreciation and understanding of the self. If you feel rejected or marginalized by society do you continue to put yourself down or do we learn how to engage in a different kinder relationship with the self? This is the premise that I try to develop in my work.

Jill Deacon
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc and FdSc Person Centred Counselling. MBACP
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.

Dr Malgorzata Milewicz
Registered Psychotherapist, HCPC Registered; UKCP Registered
There can be a striking difference between how other people see you and how you experience yourself. You may be capable and accomplished while privately doubting your worth, dismissing your achievements or speaking to yourself with a harshness you would never accept from someone else. Our work can involve developing a relationship with yourself that is more trusting, accepting and genuinely your own.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who struggle with low self-esteem, including persistent self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, and a tendency to hold back in relationships or opportunities. Difficulties with self-esteem often develop over time in response to early experiences, expectations, and the roles people have learned to occupy.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how these inner patterns are organised and what they may be protecting. Rather than trying to build confidence directly, the focus is on exploring how different parts relate to one another and how beliefs about self-worth have formed. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Low self-worth is often experienced as a belief - something to be challenged, reframed, or worked on. In practice, it tends to live deeper than that: in the body's habitual posture, in the contraction that happens before speaking in a group, in the felt sense of taking up too much or too little space. This work reaches those layers and creates the conditions for a different experience of yourself to emerge - not as an idea, but as something your body actually registers as true.

London's scale, pace, and cost of living create a high-pressure environment where therapists are in strong demand for burnout, anxiety, work-life imbalance, and the social isolation that can accompany life in a global megacity. The city's extraordinary diversity means therapists with cross-cultural competence and multilingual capability are particularly sought after, especially for communities navigating immigration stress, identity, and belonging. The NHS offers mental health services through its NHS Talking Therapies programme (formerly IAPT), though many Londoners seek private therapy for greater continuity of care and therapist choice. London's therapy community is one of the largest and most professionally diverse in the world, with practitioners trained across psychodynamic, CBT, integrative, and humanistic traditions.
