Counselling for Low Self-Esteem Online
You Are Worthy — Just As You Are
Person-Centred Counselling for Self-Esteem and Self-Worth
Low self-esteem can shape how you move through the world — affecting your relationships, choices, confidence, and how you speak to yourself. You might feel like you’re never quite enough, like you need to prove your value, or like your needs matter less than others’.
Sometimes, this voice of self-doubt is loud and obvious. Other times, it’s subtle — the decisions not made, the risks avoided, or the small ways you shrink yourself to stay safe.
However it shows up, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Counselling can offer a space to reflect, reconnect, and begin to rebuild a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
A Person-Centred Approach to Self-Esteem Counselling
My counselling style is person-centred, integrative, and collaborative. This means our work is shaped around you — your pace, your voice, and what feels most supportive.
In this space, you won’t be judged or rushed. We’ll gently explore the patterns, messages, and experiences that may have contributed to how you see yourself — and begin the process of reclaiming your self-worth.
At the core of this work is relationship. A safe, respectful connection can offer the foundation needed to challenge old beliefs, hear yourself more clearly, and make space for new ways of being.
You are not broken. You don’t need to earn your worth. You are already enough — and together, we can begin to uncover and nurture that truth.
How Low Self-Esteem Can Affect You
Low self-esteem can show up in many different ways:
Constant self-criticism or second-guessing yourself
Difficulty setting boundaries or expressing needs
People-pleasing or struggling to say “no”
Avoiding opportunities out of fear of failure
Comparing yourself to others or feeling like an outsider
Feeling unworthy of love, success, or care
Holding onto shame, guilt, or fear of rejection
These patterns often have roots in early experiences, cultural messages, or past relationships — and they’re often learned, not chosen.
The good news is that what’s been learned can also be unlearned, with time and care.
What We Might Explore Together
Counselling is not about forcing confidence or chasing perfection — it’s about building a more grounded, compassionate sense of self. Our work may include:
Recognising and softening self-critical thoughts
Learning to notice the inner critic and respond with kindness instead of harshness.
Exploring the origins of low self-worth
Understanding where these beliefs may have started and how they’ve been reinforced over time.
Building self-acceptance
Learning to meet yourself with warmth, even in the messy or painful parts.
Strengthening your inner voice
Helping you reconnect with your values, strengths, and needs — and learning to trust them.
Practising boundaries and self-expression
Supporting you in saying what you mean, asking for what you need, and standing in your own truth.
This process unfolds at your pace. There’s no pressure to change quickly — just space to be with what’s real for you.
Who This Is For
You might benefit from self-esteem counselling if:
You often feel “not good enough”
You struggle to speak kindly to yourself
You avoid challenges or opportunities for fear of failure
You feel unseen, unheard, or unsure how to express yourself
You want to build more self-trust and confidence in everyday life
Wherever you are in your journey, you are welcome.
