Are you just surviving life, going with the motions, unhappy, unsatisfied, feeling like unused potential. You feel stuck, your career isn’t where you want it to be and your romantic life is always unstable. Then you remember the traumas of your life, thoughts of those deep issues, you know the ones that go back to childhood. Those issues that have gotten worse over years, that you pretend don’t affect you but you know they do. They have left you numb, guarded, defensive, mistrusting, anxious and triggered.

When you reflect on your relationships with your parents/caregivers does it bring up hurt, feelings of being undervalued, or misunderstood? Do you find yourself wading through the waters of the impact of those relationships which has resulted in struggling to see your worth, looking for others' validation, or holding those who don’t treat you well accountable? Perhaps you’re fed up with this pattern but you are unsure of how to break it.

Self Esteem Therapists
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.
