Pervasive poor self-esteem can result in anxiety and depression. How often do you stop yourself from speaking your mind, due to fear of embarrassment or being wrong?
These small self-confidence "blips" can add up, and compound your low sense of self-worth.
How we feel about ourselves is influenced by messages from others, but ultimately, what matters most is how we think and feel about ourselves. It's possible to feel good about yourself.
Low self esteem can have many causes - sometimes it is rooted in trauma or upsetting experiences that left us feeling worthless, other times it comes from negative self talk and distorted ways of seeing ourselves in relation to others. The approach depends on the root cause, but whatever that cause may be, we can work together to develop a healthier sense of self esteem.

In self-esteem building sessions, I begin by assessing the client's current self-perception and identifying areas where they may struggle. Through supportive dialogue and active listening, I help clients recognize their strengths, values, and achievements. Using evidence-based techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and positive psychology, we work on challenging self-critical thoughts and fostering self-compassion. Together, we set realistic goals for personal growth and develop strategies to build confidence and assertiveness. Regular feedback and adjustments ensure the effectiveness of our approach, empowering clients to cultivate a positive self-image and navigate life with greater resilience and self-assurance.
