Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Struggling with self-esteem can touch every part of life—your relationships, your choices, and even the way you see yourself. That inner voice of self-criticism can make you feel like you’re never enough, leaving you stuck in doubt and holding you back from what you truly want. In therapy, I offer a safe and supportive space to honour your story, gently uncover the patterns fuelling self-doubt, and help you build self-compassion and confidence. Together, we’ll work toward feeling more grounded, empowered, and free to show up as your authentic self.

Kim Foster Yardley, The Mental Game Clinic
Psychologist, MA C. Psych
Low self-worth and self-doubt are likely fuelled by feelings of not being good enough or feeling like an imposter. These feelings could be related to past experiences of perceived failure. We help you understand where this may have come from and support you for with strategies to build confidence and self-worth.

Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., HB.Sc., RP (Qualifying), RCIC
Struggling with low self-esteem can impact every part of life — from relationships and decision-making to mental health and overall well-being. If you often feel not good enough, overly self-critical, or uncertain about your worth, you’re not alone. I help clients explore the roots of these beliefs and build a more compassionate, confident relationship with themselves. Using approaches like Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and strength-based reflection, we work together to challenge negative self-talk, strengthen your sense of identity, and support you in showing up more fully in your life with confidence and self-respect.

Body image and/or self-esteem start in the mind - not in the mirror. They can negatively alter the way you perceive your value and worth. Hypnosis is an effective way to adjust limiting perspectives that can impact your self-esteem.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Self-esteem refers to the perception and evaluation of one’s own worth or value. It plays a crucial role in how we approach life, relationships, and challenges. A healthy self-esteem fosters confidence, resilience, and a positive mindset, enabling individuals to pursue their goals and face obstacles with determination. On the other hand, low self-esteem can lead to feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and negativity, impacting both personal and professional aspects of life. Building self-esteem involves self-reflection, setting realistic goals, celebrating achievements, and practicing self-compassion. Surrounding yourself with supportive people and engaging in activities that bring joy can also enhance self-worth. Remember, cultivating a positive self-image is a journey that takes time and effort, but it can lead to a more fulfilling and empowered life.

Gulrukh Khan, Empowering Roots Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Qualifying, MACP(D), BSc (Hons)
Do you find yourself doubting your worth, second-guessing decisions, or feeling like you’ll never be “enough”? Many South Asian, immigrant, and BIPOC professionals carry messages from childhood, culture, or past relationships that quietly chip away at confidence. Over time, this leads to people-pleasing, perfectionism, and a constant fear of being judged or not measuring up.
In therapy, we’ll untangle the roots of self-doubt and build a stronger relationship with yourself. Using IFS, CBT, and somatic tools, I help clients identify inner critics, nurture self-compassion, and create a sense of confidence that isn’t dependent on external approval. Together, we’ll help you feel grounded, capable, and worthy of your own care.

Masha Andreeva
Art Therapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP(qualifying)
Art therapy can be a transformative way to build self-esteem by providing a safe, creative space to explore and express your inner world. Through art-making, you can externalize self-doubt, reframe negative beliefs, and reconnect with your strengths and values. The creative process encourages self-compassion, helping you to see yourself with fresh eyes and build a more positive, authentic self-image. My approach integrates mindfulness and trauma-informed care, guiding you to foster deeper self-awareness, confidence, and a stronger sense of personal worth.

Rom Malik
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., R.P.
Self-esteem and self-worth are primarily derived from life experience. They can be negatively impacted by early life experiences, a bully at school, an abusive partner, demeaning employer, and so on. The work we would do would be to explore the nature of your self-esteem. You may have positive self-esteem in some areas of your life and low self-esteem in others. We will also see what sorts of internal dialogue keeps the self-esteem down. We will also work on increasing assertiveness as this goes with a lack of self-esteem.

Building a Strong Foundation of Self-Worth
Self-worth often gets buried beneath years of self-doubt, internalized criticism, and unmet emotional needs. It’s not something we lack—it’s something we lose sight of. I offer a space to gently uncover those layers and reconnect with your inherent value.
Together, we explore the emotional and subconscious roots of low self-esteem—where negative self-talk began, what protective patterns have formed, and how to shift the inner narrative toward compassion and strength. When appropriate, I also invite the possibility of inner child work, as early relational wounds and unrecognized needs often sit at the core of self-worth challenges. This process allows for deeper integration and healing of the parts that were silenced or shamed.
My approach blends evidence-based techniques with a warm, attuned presence, creating a safe space for reflection, growth, and real change.
In Our Work Together, You’ll Learn To:
• Recognize and challenge limiting beliefs and inner criticism
• Practice self-compassion in a way that feels authentic and sustainable
• Set boundaries that honor your needs and values
• Reconnect with your personal identity and inner voice
• Create self-care practices that nourish rather than distract
This work is about reclaiming your voice, honoring your worth, and learning to stand in your truth—without apology.
