Self-esteem is at the core of what we do in life: in our relationships, at work, in our families, and so on. Building self-esteem is a personal path that is essential for all of us.
Are you struggling with the idea that you should be happy and believe that you are important? Do you blame yourself for negative actions that have happened in the past? Low self-esteem can affect your ability to make decisions and manage your life. It can also prevent you from moving on from negative experiences. This is why it's important that you identify the root cause of your low self-esteem and develop strategies to improve it.
Self-esteem is built every day. Our thoughts and behaviours either serve us and our self-esteem or erode us and our self-esteem. As a therapist, I help my clients address any self-limiting beliefs they might have about themselves and their abilities. We will also address their personal self-talk to change it from negative to positive if needed.
Kate recognises the importance of this aspect of personality, understanding that building self-esteem is sometimes a byproduct of achievements, however small.
