Understanding self-esteem
Self-esteem is the relationship we have with ourselves — how we evaluate our worth, capabilities, and value as a person. It influences our decisions, relationships, and overall well-being.
Low self-esteem is surprisingly common, even among people who appear successful or confident. It can manifest as perfectionism, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or a persistent inner critic that's never satisfied.
Therapy provides a space to understand these patterns, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with yourself.
