Self Esteem Therapists in Saskatoon, SK
Many of my clients have experienced panic attacks, obsessive worry, anger, depression, low self esteem - that have been brought on or worsened by relationship difficulties and negative - even traumatic experiences. Life can be very hard - when feeling hurt, scared, or humiliated, our impulse is to withdraw from others, fight back, or pretend everything is okay. My clients have often found themselves stuck in these defensive modes. If you hope for change and are willing to reach out, please don't hesitate .... you are worth it!

Do you feel like you are not enough? Have past experiences shaped the way you feel about yourself for the worse? Are you struggling with feelings of being flawed or worthless? Sometimes our baggage and shame can lead to anxiety, unwanted anger, low- self esteem, and depression. We can find ourselves making mistakes in our relationships, enduring mistreatment and abuse. Changing these patterns starts by finding compassion for yourself. With that compassion we can release the shame and heal from trauma, then we have the freedom to figure out who really are.

Self Esteem Counsellors
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.
What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.
What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.
How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
