Self-esteem and how you feel about yourself can have ​dramatic effects on your life. When you don't have a positive relationship with yourself, it can be complex because it affects your thoughts, emotions, and even your overall identity. Many people with low self-esteem suffer from anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and more, or they've experienced a negative life experience that changed the way they see themselves.

​

When you work with a self-esteem therapist, you can create a more positive relationship with yourself. By understanding the factors that have influenced how you see yourself, you can stop blaming yourself for things that were out of your control. You can find self-compassion, self-worth, and build your confidence in ways that improve your life everyday.
