Self-Esteem Counselling

 

The state of our self-esteem directly determines how easily we are able to navigate stress and interpersonal difficulties. When our self-esteem is healthy, we absorb far less of the chaos around us, and know how not to take things personally. Conversely, when we have low self-esteem and see ourselves in a more negative and critical light, we are less able to take on life’s challenges. Negative self-esteem can affect individuals in a number of ways, including:

·       The avoidance of challenging situations

·       The development of unhelpful habits, e.g. smoking or drinking excessively

·       Hiding from social situations

·       A reluctance to try new experiences

·       Depression

·       Anxiety

Counselling for Self-Esteem Guildford & Wimbledon

We are constantly receiving feedback that answers the question “Am I enough?” and shapes our perception of who we are. If we don’t feel like we are good enough, our self-esteem is negatively affected, which lowers our performance and confirms to us that we are not good enough. We provide a safe therapeutic space in for self-esteem counselling in Wimbledon and Guildford, helping to rewire the negative perception of yourself, and enabling you to see a different version of who you are.

Therapy can also help you to understand the feedback that has shaped your self-esteem, and how that impacts on your everyday life - as well as enabling you to create a different version of yourself that is more congruent with who you want to be. Using a variety of approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), person-centred therapy, and narrative therapy, our psychologists will work with you to become the best version of yourself.
