Mind Path Therapy
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Having low self-esteem can feel like a huge brake on our lives, and it often involves self-limiting beliefs, like: "if only I felt more confident, I would take more risks". Perhaps you've experienced feeling like you're caught in a pattern of negative self-appraisal and avoidance of the things you want to approach. Understanding what low self-esteem is and how it functions is crucial to getting compassionate and effective treatment. I offer an evidence-based approach using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you identify the thoughts and behaviours that may be maintaining low self-esteem, and, most importantly, help you make the shift from focusing on the unreliable feeling of confidence to grounding yourself in the parts of you and your life that you care about. Dealing with self-esteem is about transcending the need for confidence and artificially pumping ourselves up. It's about anchoring yourself in your experience and taking courageous steps, no matter how small, towards the things and relationships you care about.

Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
Self-esteem isn’t about false confidence—it’s about knowing and trusting yourself. My approach blends mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness to uncover the unconscious beliefs and past experiences that shape your self-worth. Rather than relying on external validation, we explore how to cultivate an inner foundation of confidence, resilience, and self-acceptance. Whether you struggle with self-doubt, perfectionism, or feeling "not enough," therapy provides a space to reconnect with your authentic self and develop a deeper sense of inner strength.

Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
If you are bumping up against low self-esteem, self-doubt, or feeling “not enough,” we can explore what’s at the core of how you have come to know yourself. When did you start feeling this way? What was happening around that time? "Not enough" for whom or what, by whose standards? Often, experiences of shame, fear, or unworthiness are rooted in patterns that once helped you stay safe or connected. In our work together, we bring awareness to how these self-stories show up in your thoughts, body, and relationships, including themes like “overthinking” (I don’t really believe on over-thinking, but we can explore the *quality* of your thinking), avoidance/resistance, or tying your worth to achievement. Getting rid of these responses before fully understanding their importance/function robs us of delicious awareness and deeper meaning. Instead, we may approach your unique and brilliant survival strategies with curiosity and understanding, allowing new possibilities and perspectives to emerge. Through bringing creativity and a spirit of adventure to your self-exploration, we co-create supports that allow you to reconnect with your sense of self, building self-compassion, and experiencing yourself as someone who already makes sense, just as you are.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We live in a fast paced world with many demands upon us. It can feel impossible to keep up, and comparison with others, with our ideal images of ourselves, and our hopes can often steal our sense of being "enough" or "too much." Work with me to learn about what values you hold, which of those you want to keep and invest in, and how you can show up in a way that makes you feel an internal sense of pride. In time this inner compass becomes stronger and stronger, allowing self assuredness and confidence to take over.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed approach, issues with self-esteem and self-worth are manifestations of unresolved trauma that has resulted in becoming disconnected and feeling unworthy, broken, incomplete or not enough. The work we can do together will include helping you better understand yourself, developing self-love, self-compassion, self-forgiveness, and self-acceptance, and processing the unresolved trauma so you can ultimately reconnect to yourself.
