The way we see ourselves impacts our entire lives. Being a person of colour growing up in Canada - I never realized how much western society dictated my perception of myself. And growing up as Pakistani Muslim in Canadian society was a whole other added layer. I support BIPOC and culturally diverse individuals in discovering and connecting with their perception of who they are and ultimately feeling confident in their sense of self. *Free 15 min Consultation Phone Call*
The work I do with clients who seek support in self-esteem healing is primarily focused on inner child healing and learning how to re-parent the self, with an emphasis on parts work, mindfulness skills development and breath work.
Together we'll look at both sides of self-esteem -- your self image and your relationships with others. I will support you to look at family of origin, culture of origin, and religious programming to understand how your sense of self and of boundaries has been conditioned. With understanding you'll come to a place where new choices are natural. Homework between sessions will help you integrate healthier self-esteem. I'll be there with you as you come into your genuine self with authenticity.
You won't be happy in life if you don't know, accept, and appreciate yourself. This is the foundation of all other relationships.
Unfortunately, many of us weren't loved well, were not taught to love ourselves well, so we don't know how to love well. It can be learned.

Self-esteem is how we value and perceive ourselves. It's based on our opinions and beliefs about ourselves, which can feel challenging to change. We might also think of this as self-confidence. Your self-esteem can affect whether you: Like and value yourself. When your self-esteem and self-value are low, you may need some guidance and support to steer you back onto the right path where you can regain a sense of self-confidence and well being.
To find our authentic self, show up, be ok with boundaries, with feedback, rejection, standing up, align with our values and beliefs and essentially find our own personal slice of free expression. Self esteem has impacts in all of these areas. Culture, bias, limiting beliefs, unhelpful thinking, assumptions, judgments all contribute to self esteem we may want to change.
Are you constantly comparing yourself to others, checking to see if you measure up? Are you often filled with self-doubt, negative thinking, critical self-talk, and a lack of confidence? I am here to help with that. We will work to challenge those negative thought patterns and examine where they come from, while giving you some simple tools to help make sure they do not dominate your thoughts.
I specialize in helping women specifically, overcome Childhood Emotional Neglect also known as CEN. With CEN and codependency, low self esteem is at the root of it all. Learning to love and accept yourself for who you are is what we work on together in therapy.

Individuals with low self-esteem often have an intense fear of being judged. Their thoughts typically involve beliefs around incompetence or inadequacy, and some clients with low self-esteem may even believe that they are defective.
These harsh self-judgments often interfere with the ability to live a fulfilling life largely due to avoiding new behaviours that may re-affirm feelings of incompetence or inadequacy. In therapy, I help clients gain insight into some of the thoughts and emotions that prevent the establishment of self-worth and self-love.
Through various therapeutic approaches, including cognitive restructuring and a focus on values-oriented work, we work collaboratively to help move away from self-defeating behaviours, such as avoidance, and closer toward experiences that promote healing.
