Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
How we think and feel about ourselves drives many of our behaviours and interactions with others, and often determines our internal motivation and sense of control. Working on self esteem through understanding contributing factors throughout our development can revolutionise our sense of self, allowing barriers to achievement to be minimised and helping to create a purposeful and rewarding internal world that matches what may be acted out externally, leading to authentic self-esteem that contributes to happiness and satisfaction.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
When our self-esteem is low it can feel like everyone else in the world is 'getting it' but us. To my mind, low self-esteem, self-judgement, shame and isolation all co-exist cosily together and create fertile ground for each other. Because self-judgement will undermine our self-esteem, and lead to us feeling ashamed of ourselves. This happy combination then naturally leads us to draw inwards, away from the gaze of the world around us, and into isolation where nobody can see how 'worthless' we are (or believe ourselves to be).
Addressing this inner critic or inner judge is one of the keys to reclaiming our self-esteem.

Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
That voice that tells you you're not good enough, not smart enough, not worthy? It's been on repeat for so long you think it's the truth. But it's not truth,it's a habit. A program running in your subconscious that was installed years ago, and it's way past time to uninstall it.
Hypnotherapy helps you quiet the critic and amplify your authentic voice. In a deeply relaxed state, we access the beliefs driving your self-doubt and gently rewrite them. Imagine waking up and feeling... okay. Not perfect, just peacefully, quietly enough.
You've always been enough. Let's help you believe it.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Low self esteem affects healthy, confident interaction with others and leads to isolation and loneliness. It affects our ability to communicate effectively and assertively about our wants and needs, which creates an inevitable feeling of being 'walked over' by others. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner feelings and experiences, and to learn practical strategies for more confident and assertive communications skills, along with learning to appreciate yourself more and learn self compassion. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from poor self esteem to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
