Self-Esteem Therapy: Build Confidence, Self-Worth, and Emotional Resilience

  • Do you struggle with self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, or feeling like you’re never “good enough”?


    Low self-esteem can quietly shape your relationships, career, and mental health—keeping you stuck in patterns of anxiety, people-pleasing, or perfectionism.

Close-up of white flowers with a few pale green leaves and brown stems.

When Low Self-Esteem Affects Your Life

  • Constantly second-guess yourself or your decisions

  • Feel like an impostor or fear being “found out”

  • Struggle with people-pleasing or weak boundaries

  • Compare yourself negatively to others

  • Avoid opportunities due to fear of failure or rejection

  • Feel shame, guilt, or chronic self-criticism

  • Tie your worth to achievement, productivity, or approval

  • Have difficulty accepting compliments or positive feedback

Often this is shaped by early experiences, trauma, relationships, and societal pressure.
