Self Esteem
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Self-esteem is a complex concept that includes how you feel about yourself, your self-worth, how capable you are (self-efficacy) and self-confidence. If you have low self-esteem, chances are you have struggled in relationships, have experienced domestic abuse, or have internalised hurtful comments from other people. Perhaps you are judgmental and critical of yourself. Therapy can help work through your difficult feelings, reconnect to yourself, regain your confidence and learn relationship and other skills to help in the future.

Self Esteem
Heather Macfarlane
Registered Psychotherapist, Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist
Our sense of self-worth underpins everything we do and all decisions we make. I love the description of self-esteem as "the ability to like yourself when you lose, just as much as when you win". Few of us have ever done anything so truly awful to merit the level of self-loathing that some people place on themselves. Why limit yourself, your opportunities and your time in this world because of low self-esteem when we are all equally worthy of love and respect simply for being, regardless of achievements, success, looks, weight or whatever else you base your self-esteem on.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Have you ever felt that no matter how hard you try, you're never quite good enough? Perhaps you constantly compare yourself to others, struggle to recognize your accomplishments, or find yourself seeking approval before making decisions. Low self-esteem can quietly influence your relationships, career, education, and sense of identity, leaving you feeling uncertain about your abilities and hesitant to express your needs.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer affordable, compassionate counselling to help adolescents and adults develop greater self-confidence, self-acceptance, and a healthier sense of personal worth. My experience includes facilitating psychoeducational workshops focused on self-esteem and emotional well-being, giving me valuable insight into the challenges people face when learning to believe in themselves.
Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), person-centred counselling, and trauma-informed principles, I work collaboratively with you to explore the experiences and beliefs that have shaped how you see yourself. Together, we can identify patterns of negative self-talk, challenge unrealistic expectations, strengthen healthy boundaries, and develop a more compassionate inner dialogue.
I also recognize that self-esteem is often influenced by family relationships, cultural expectations, academic pressures, and the desire to meet others' standards of success. My culturally responsive approach provides space to explore these influences while helping you discover what confidence and personal fulfillment mean to you.
Building self-esteem isn't about becoming perfect or proving your worth to others. It's about learning to recognize your value, trust your decisions, and feel more comfortable expressing your authentic self.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to help you move beyond self-doubt, recognize your strengths, and build a more confident relationship with yourself.

Filipa Marques
Hypnotherapist
Initiating on the empowering journey of enhancing self-esteem is a significant step towards personal growth and fulfillment. In my specialized hypnotherapy practice, I offer a comprehensive and personalized approach to address the intricate layers of self-perception. Together, we navigate the depths of the subconscious mind, gently unveiling and challenging limiting beliefs that may be contributing to low self-esteem.
Through a series of carefully crafted hypnotherapy sessions, we delve into the root causes of self-doubt, fostering a compassionate exploration of your inner world. Utilizing advanced hypnotherapy techniques, we work collaboratively to reframe negative thought patterns, promoting a positive self-image and instilling a sense of confidence that extends into various aspects of your life.
The transformative journey towards building lasting self-esteem involves not just addressing surface-level challenges but fostering a holistic understanding of your unique strengths and capabilities. Our sessions are designed to provide a safe and supportive space where you can express and explore your emotions, encouraging a profound shift towards self-acceptance and empowerment.
Together, we unravel the layers that may be hindering your self-esteem, replacing them with a renewed sense of worth and confidence. As we navigate this transformative process, the power of hypnotherapy becomes a guiding force, helping you unlock your true potential and embark on a journey towards becoming the best version of yourself. Join me on this empowering path, where self-esteem isn't just a goal but a foundation for a more fulfilled and confident life.
