Tej Neringer, Pivotal Counseling
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
There are many ways to address and improve issues related to self esteem including :
• Practice sitting with difficult emotions and being alone without unhealthy distractions - stay busy with healthy distractions
• Spend more time with people who make you feel loved/appreciated
• Cut out anyone negative
• Goals and task achievement - recognize what you are good at and celebrate wins
• Lifestyle - reduce substance, sleep, diet, exercise
• Inner critic - notice, label, trash, distract - what would friend say?
• Assertive, say no, set boundaries
• Each day - write down something you are proud of
• Be yourself – be your true self around everyone, even if you fear being rejected. You will likely be surprised by how people respond, thereby validating that who you truly are is okay
• Stop comparing – if you notice yourself comparing yourself to others, make sure to compare your whole self to their whole self. Don’t just compare yourself to their best attribute, consider that they are a whole person, with good qualities and flaws, just like you and everyone else.

Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I'm Kate, an experienced Individual & Couples Therapist specialized in working with adults who have experienced interpersonal trauma. Interpersonal trauma is any unhealthy interaction between yourself and another person and it could occur at any time in your life, yet its impact is felt in the present. You may feel sad, anxious, lack a feeling of self-worth, scared of what’s coming next, struggling in your relationships. Interpersonal Trauma often creates invisible shackles which result in a feeling of being stuck and powerless. We will work together to navigate the impact on your self-esteem and feeling of self-worth to empower you to create an improved self-concept and the life experience you desire.

Victoria Jacobs
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.
Self esteem and confidence often grow when we understand what the inner critic is trying to do instead of fighting it. With my training in IFS and parts work, we meet the inner critic as a protective part that learned to push hard or warn you so you would not get hurt. Together we notice when it shows up, get curious about its worries, and invite it to step back so a calmer, kinder part of you can lead. We practise self compassion, name real strengths, and choose small actions that fit your values. We can also use CBT to reality check harsh stories, emotion focused work to tend to shame or self doubt, and simple body based tools to settle the nervous system.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel unsure of yourself, critical of your choices, or not “enough”? Many people grow up internalizing messages that their feelings, abilities, or worth are conditional, leaving them doubting themselves or comparing constantly to others.
These feelings are not a personal flaw—they are signals about areas where your sense of self has been shaped by experience. What matters is how you respond to them when they show up. Together, we can explore your experiences, strengthen your self-understanding, and build a more compassionate and grounded relationship with yourself—so you can feel more confident, secure, and lighter over time. You feel this way for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Whiteboard Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
The internal voices which speak to us about our career, our looks, our home, and our abilities have an amazing ability to build us up or tear us down. Some of the ways which our therapists use to help clients improve their sense of self-esteem include: challenging negative thoughts and beliefs; practicing self-care and self-compassion; surrounding yourself with positive and supportive people; and engaging in activities that bring a sense of accomplishment and pleasure.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
Our sense of ourselves is a complicated thing. How we have been handled by others can imprint itself into our psyche and form our core beliefs about ourselves. We now know that these deeply engrained beliefs can colour much of our perceptions and the meanings we give our experiences. Our inner narrative ourselves can sometimes be very different than how others perceive us. When we are going through stressful experiences like life transitions, these ways of seeing and relating to ourselves can be triggered and we begin to feel vulnerable and dysregulated. We may feel that we have not earned our success, or deny our achievements. Our passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. We are interested in getting to know your experiences and unique pain points.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.
Approaches: eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-focused, Cognitive Behavioural, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, Solution-Focused and Narrative therapy

Oakville is one of the most affluent municipalities in Canada — a well-established Toronto suburb with a high median household income, well-funded schools, and a therapy culture that reflects the stresses of high-achieving, upper-middle-class suburban family life. The city's concentration of executives, professionals, and their families creates demand for therapists working with relationship complexity, parenting under pressure, and the psychological costs of maintaining prosperity and family cohesion. Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community. Oakville's growing diversity — with expanding South Asian and East Asian communities in its newer residential subdivisions — is gradually broadening the range of cultural frameworks therapists need to engage with.
