Low Self-Esteem & Identity Issues Therapy

Because it’s time to see yourself more clearly


DOES IT FEEL LIKE…

You don’t fully trust yourself.

You second-guess your choices, downplay your accomplishments, or feel like you’re never quite enough. You may adapt yourself to fit others’ expectations - so much that you’ve lost track of who you actually are.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

  • I feel like an imposter, even when others see me as capable.

  • I compare myself constantly and always come up short.

  • I don’t know what I want, or I don’t trust myself to go after it.

  • I feel embarrassed about taking up space or showing the real me.

  • I’ve built my life around others’ needs and lost sight of my own.

Like your sense of self is fragile.

Your identity feels blurred. You can play the roles expected of you, but inside, you’re disconnected from your own values and desires. It leaves you questioning yourself, unsure of where to stand.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE.

Low self-esteem and identity struggles don’t happen overnight. They’re shaped over years through family dynamics, early experiences, and repeated messages about who you are “supposed” to be. But those definitions don’t have to stay fixed.

I can help you redefine yourself

Psychotherapy helps you trace how your self-concept was formed, where it became limiting, and how it continues to affect your choices. This process doesn’t resolve in a few sessions. It unfolds gradually, as we examine old definitions of yourself, test new ways of seeing yourself, and build confidence step by step.

IMAGINE SOMETHING DIFFERENT

  • Believing you’re enough without constant proof.

  • Making choices that reflect your real priorities.

  • Living from a stronger sense of self, not just old definitions.

  • Approaching relationships with confidence instead of doubt.
