Self-Esteem and Embracing Your True Worth

Self-esteem is the primary foundation of your emotional well-being. It encompasses how you perceive and value yourself, believes in your abilities, and the worthiness of love and success. Low self-esteem can turn up in various ways, including:

  • Constant Self-Criticism and Negative Self-Talk
  • Fear of Failure and Avoiding New Challenges
  • Difficulties Asserting Yourself and Setting Boundaries
  • Seeking External Validation to Feel Worthy
  • Feeling Inadequate Compared to Others
  • Avoiding Social Interactions
  • Seeking Approval Excessively
  • Lack of Self-Care and Compassion
  • Persistent Feelings of Unworthiness and Self-Doubt.

If you resonate with any of these signs, it is time to nurture yourself and embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth through therapy.
