Our Treatment Approach
We use CBT, schema therapy, and compassion-focused therapy to identify the origins of low self-esteem and build a more balanced, grounded self-concept—one rooted in evidence rather than early wounds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can low self-esteem be fixed?
Yes. With the right therapeutic approach, people develop genuinely different ways of seeing and relating to themselves.
Is this suitable for teenagers?
Adolescence is a critical time to address self-esteem. We work with teens using age-appropriate approaches.
How is this different from ‘positive thinking’?
Real self-esteem isn’t positive thinking—it’s an accurate, grounded relationship with yourself. Therapy goes much deeper than affirmations.
