Low Self-Esteem

What is low self-esteem?

Low self-esteem is a pervasive sense of inadequacy and self-doubt. It often manifests through symptoms such as persistent negative self-talk, fear of failure, social withdrawal, excessive worry about others' opinions, and a tendency to focus on perceived flaws. Individuals with low self-esteem may struggle with feelings of worthlessness and a lack of confidence in their abilities, impacting various aspects of their personal and professional lives.

 

How can CBT treat low self-esteem?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for low self-esteem. CBT helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs about themselves, replacing them with healthier, more realistic ones. Through structured sessions, clients learn practical skills to improve self-worth, enhance resilience, and build a more positive self-image. By addressing the root causes of negative thinking and behaviour, CBT empowers individuals to lead more fulfilling and confident lives.
