Lailla Sena - Somatic Practitioner
Life Coach, Psychosomatic Practitioner | Breathwork Facilitator
You've done the affirmations, maybe made the list of your strengths, and none of it reaches the place where you actually feel yourself. So you shrink a little in rooms. You explain yourself more than you need to. You wait for permission that no one is coming to give you. Self-worth isn't a thought you can argue your way into; it's a felt sense in the body, and if your body learned early to make itself small, no amount of positive thinking will unlearn that.
We work with the body that's doing the shrinking (the breath that holds back, the spine that folds, the voice that softens ) until taking up your own space stops being a decision and becomes a reflex.
If this is you, I would love to support you in your process. Schedule a free chat with me today to get started.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Low self esteem affects healthy, confident interaction with others and leads to isolation and loneliness. It affects our ability to communicate effectively and assertively about our wants and needs, which creates an inevitable feeling of being 'walked over' by others. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner feelings and experiences, and to learn practical strategies for more confident and assertive communications skills, along with learning to appreciate yourself more and learn self compassion. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from poor self esteem to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Low self-esteem is rarely a lack of evidence, it’s usually a well-rehearsed internal narrative formed early and reinforced over time. I work with clients to identify that narrative, understand its origins, and build a more accurate, compassionate sense of self.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Low self-esteem can quietly shape every decision, the relationships you accept, the opportunities you pass on, the voice in your head that's always a little too critical. If you're ready to build a stronger, kinder relationship with yourself, let's work together to help you get there.
The first step in working on self-esteem is understanding that your worth was never up for debate. It's the beliefs about yourself that need examining, not you. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where these beliefs took root and build a more grounded, compassionate sense of self. My approach focuses on self-compassion, accountability, and practical steps toward genuine confidence.
You don't have to do this alone. Let's take the first step toward a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with yourself.
