Self-esteem is your overall subjective evaluation of your worth, value, and competence. It reflects how much you respect, appreciate, and believe in yourself. While self-confidence relates specifically to your belief in your ability to succeed in a particular task or situation, self-esteem is a deeper, foundational sense of whether you feel worthy of happiness, love, and respect just as you are.
High vs Low Self-Esteem
Healthy Self-Esteem: Involves an accurate, balanced view of yourself. You recognise your strengths while accepting your flaws and limitations without harsh judgment. It allows you to bounce back from setbacks and set healthy boundaries.
Low Self-Esteem: Involves chronic self-doubt, harsh internal criticism, and a persistent belief that you are inadequate, unlovable, or a burden. People with low self-esteem often measure their worth entirely by external achievements, others' approval, or perfection.
Common Signs of Low Self-Esteem
Habitual Comparison: Constantly comparing yourself to others and always feeling like you fall short.
Fear of Failure & Rejection: Avoiding new challenges, social gatherings, or opportunities because you assume you will fail or that people won't like you.
Difficulty Accepting Praise: Downplaying compliments or attributing your successes to luck rather than your own skill and effort.
People-Pleasing: Prioritising everyone else's needs, opinions, and comfort over your own out of fear of conflict or rejection.
Internalised Blame: Automatically blaming yourself when things go wrong, even if it was outside of your control.
Where Does Self-Esteem Come From?
Self-esteem is shaped over a lifetime by early childhood experiences (such as parenting styles, family dynamics, and peer relationships), school or work environments, major life events, and ongoing internal self-talk. Because it is learned over time, you can also unlearn and rebuild it.
Cultivating Self-Compassion
Building healthier self-esteem isn't about forced positivity or pretending you are flawless; it is about developing self-compassion—treating yourself with the same kindness, understanding, and patience you would offer to a good friend when things get difficult.
Remember: Your worth is not up for negotiation, and it does not fluctuate based on your productivity, mistakes, or other people's opinions. You are inherently worthy of care and respect simply because you exist.

Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Low self-esteem isn't about lacking confidence. It's about carrying a deep sense that something's fundamentally wrong with you. You might be good at your job, have people who love you, tick all the boxes—but inside, you're convinced you're not enough. That if people really knew you, they'd see through the performance.
This feeling didn't come from nowhere. Somewhere along the line, you learned that who you are isn't acceptable. Maybe you were criticized, dismissed, or had to earn approval that should have been freely given. Your nervous system learned: "I have to be perfect/invisible/useful to be okay."
We work to understand where that belief got installed and why it's still running. Not through affirmations or telling you you're great—that doesn't work because you won't believe it. Instead, we look at what happened that taught you to see yourself this way, and then we start dismantling it.
Real self-worth isn't built through positive thinking. It's built through understanding why you learned to reject yourself, then slowly learning you don't have to anymore.

Therapy with Ben
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP
Low self-esteem can affect relationships, decisions and how you interpret your own worth and abilities. Together, we can explore how your view of yourself may have developed, including the influence of earlier experiences and relationships. Counselling can offer space to recognise self-critical patterns and develop a more compassionate, realistic understanding of yourself.

Anna Brooker
Therapist, Advanced Level 3 BWRT Therapist, Award Winning Women's Health Coach, Life Coach
Low self esteem often sounds like a constant inner critic telling you you're not good enough, however much you achieve. Many of the women I work with feel like a fraud at work or put everyone else's needs before their own. I offer a free 15-minute consultation. Send me a message using the enquiry form and I'll get back to you. With BWRT®, we work on the automatic emotional reactions behind that self-doubt, so confidence feels more natural rather than forced. It's a practical, forward-focused way to change how you see yourself. Book a free 15 minute consultation so we can talk about whether BWRT is right for you.
