Self-esteem & self-worth
Self-concept & identity
Living with low self-esteem often means carrying persistent self-doubt or self-criticism shaped by past experiences. Self-worth can fluctuate based on performance, relationships, or external validation.
Indicators
Low self-esteem may show up as persistent self-criticism, people-pleasing, fear of failure, or difficulty trusting your own judgment. You may downplay achievements, feel undeserving of support, or base your sense of worth on productivity, approval, or external validation. These patterns can be emotionally exhausting and limiting.
How therapy can help
Therapy can help you explore where these beliefs formed, build self-compassion, and develop a more stable sense of worth. The focus is on strengthening self-trust, reshaping unhelpful narratives, and supporting a healthier relationship with yourself over time.
