Self Esteem & Identity


Are you struggling to feel confident, secure and comfortable with yourself? Have you been noticing negative self talk, self doubt and difficulty doing the things you want to do for yourself? You might be feeling stuck in a rut, where it is difficult to engage in the things you used to enjoy. You might find yourself wondering what makes you happy now, what are your needs now and how can you find joy.

Change can be constant in life, but it can also make us feel disconnected, drained and uneasy. Learning to adapt to change, or even embrace change, can help us improve our self esteem and build a stronger sense of self identity. It can be true that we are our own worst enemy, but this doesn’t serve a healthy purpose for us. Together, let’s find ways to help you access your strengths and resilience to become the version of yourself.

Improving Self Esteem and Building A Stronger Identity can help with:

  • Getting you closer to your authentic self

  • Helping you feel secure, confident and comfortable

  • Help you make decisions that align with your values

  • Reframe your negative thoughts into positive, realistic and compassionate thoughts

  • Limit the control that insecurities and self-doubt may have over you

  • Improve how you take care of yourself


“How liberating it is to seek wholeness instead of perfection.”

- Morgan Harper Nichols”

We are faced with many different stressors on a day to day basis. Continuing to feel stuck, overwhelmed, unhappy, and worried can limit your capacity to cope with these difficult feelings. Taking care of yourself can look different for everyone. Having the space to work through your experiences, past and present, can help you understand yourself more.
