Self Esteem
Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
When working with clients struggling with self-esteem issues, I help them uncover the deeper beliefs and life experiences that have shaped how they see themselves. Together, we explore the origins of self-criticism and patterns of comparison, while fostering self-compassion and a more balanced inner dialogue. My approach blends insight-oriented therapy with practical tools to help clients challenge limiting narratives, recognize their strengths, and build a sense of worth that isn’t dependent on external validation. The goal is to help them develop a more grounded, authentic confidence — one rooted in self-understanding and acceptance.

Self Esteem
North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
We often hold stuck concepts of ourselves as problematic or not good enough. Our minds may focus on thoughts, feelings, and stories, that seem to confirm we are not good enough, unloveable, or unworthy in some way. The danger is when we define ourselves by these beliefs. In psychotherapy we support you to shift your perspective and thought processes. We work to unburden the parts of you that hold these painful beliefs, in order to move towards self-confidence, self-compassion and a feeling of wholeness.

Self Esteem
Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you feel like an imposter? Do you secretly fear that you're not good enough? Do you worry that your true self is unlovable? Did you know that these feelings often stem from past attachment wounds and the self-protective strategies we often develop to avoid additional emotional pain? Sometimes, these strategies become resistant to change, and what was once helpful becomes harmful. Using integrative therapy techniques from a foundation of emotion focused therapy our therapists are trained to help you get to the root of your self-esteem issues so that you can grow into feeling and being your best self. Contact us today for a free consultation to help us match you to the right therapist for your unique needs.

Self Esteem
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with self-esteem, you may carry a quiet narrative that you are not enough. You might second-guess your decisions, compare yourself to others, or feel that your value depends on performance, approval, or appearance. Over time, this internal dialogue can shape how you show up in relationships, work, and leadership.
At Selah Counselling, we approach self-esteem with depth and compassion. Low self-worth is often rooted in early attachment experiences, repeated criticism, trauma, or chronic stress. Together, we explore where these beliefs began and gently challenge the patterns that keep them in place. We focus on strengthening self-awareness, regulating the nervous system, and building a stable identity that is not dependent on external validation. Our goal is to help you develop confidence that is grounded, resilient, and aligned with your true strengths and values.
