You want to feel good about yourself. What could be possible in your life if you had more confidence, less self-doubt and high self-esteem? Therapy can help you develop a positive sense of self and offer strategies to improve self-esteem.

How many times have you heard this as the key to a good life?

If only it were that easy.

Self-esteem affects your overall sense of self. When it suffers, it wreaks havoc on your mental health and relationships. Low self-esteem might show up in your life in these ways:

  • Find yourself always apologizing

  • You "people please" to keep other people happy, which comes at the expense of not honoring your own wants and needs.

  • You feel like you are just lucky, vs deserving of good things.

  • It’s so hard to express and advocate for your needs. You fear your needs or wants are too much.

  • You may put up with relationships that aren’t healthy, because if you just tried harder, it would be better.

  • You feel like one day everyone will see you how you see yourself and that won’t be good enough.

  • You find it hard to think about the positive qualities you have or accept recognition from others.

  • Constantly doubting yourself or feeling inadequate.

  • You think about what “could have been” if you had more self confidence.

  • You find yourself holding back from new relationships or opportunities.

  • Feel undeserving of others acts of care or kindness. .

If this sounds like you, therapy may help.
