Self Esteem therapists in Dinas Powys, Wales Wales, United Kingdom GB
Kyle Davies
Psychologist, BSc MPhil CPsychol AFBPsS
In modern life, we often feel that self-esteem is something that comes from our achievements, successes and how we are perceived by others. We often fall into the trap of believing that other people are the cause of our low self-esteem. However, self-esteem flows from the inside-out. What this means is that as we get back in touch with who we really are and allow ourselves to flow from that space our self-esteem naturally begins to increase.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Self-esteem, and confidence, can be so fragile and we can allow it to be taken from us without knowing we have a choice. If you hear a version of yourself often enough, eventually you believe it. Positive attention throughout our childhood can carry us a long way, just as unhealthy attention can be just as far reaching. We live in a society that thrusts expectation in front of us nearly constantly, and trying to live up to it can be painful and demoralising. How would you like to be able to know who you are and start living your life how you want it? Through questioning your self-beliefs, and where they come from, you can begin to feel better with who you are. By not trying to live up to standards and expectations set by others, you can find strength in doing it your way. Is low self-esteem about not being good enough, or about you trying to be somebody or something that you are not?

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.

Abi Jude
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP Member
Self-esteem is the corner stone to a healthy and balanced life. If only it were easy to build our sense of self and be confident that intrinsically we are ok as we are. We may carry messages from our past and perhaps have never felt good about ourselves. I will work with you to look at the messages you give yourself and behaviour that may be supporting your lack of self esteem so you can begin to make changes and have a different experience.
