Self-Esteem Counselling

Persistent self-doubt or harsh self-criticism often traces back to earlier experiences — family dynamics, past relationships, or repeated setbacks — that shaped how you see yourself long after the original cause has passed. Left unaddressed, it can affect relationships, work and decision-making well beyond how you simply feel about yourself.

Counselling works through where these patterns came from and, more importantly, builds practical tools for responding to your inner critic differently going forward.

This is collaborative work — your counsellor won't just tell you to 'think positive,' but will help you build a more accurate, balanced view of yourself over time.

Your first session explores where your self-critical patterns come from and how they show up day to day. From there, sessions focus on building practical, sustainable ways of responding to yourself differently — not just repeating affirmations.
