Supportive Therapy for Self-Esteem
Embrace Your Worth: Elevate Your Life with Self-Esteem
Today’s world can sometimes be harsh and unforgiving. As a result, both our adolescents and adults can feel pressure to be something they are not. And because of this our self-esteem can be directly affected.
"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection." — Buddha
What Is Self-Esteem?
Self-esteem is the way we think about ourselves and the way we perceive ourselves. Often our self-esteem can dictate how we even think others see us. Our self-esteem is connected to our self-worth.
When we experience low self-esteem, we usually feel bad or negative about the way we look or act. We often don’t like the way we interact with others. When we don’t feel good about ourselves, we usually have negative self-talk and negative perceptions of ourselves. Low self-esteem than affects other areas of our lives.
Athletes tend to engage in high levels of perfectionism. Athletes can be overly critical of their performance or the goals they set for themselves. When an athlete doesn’t perform well, it can have a direct effect on their self-esteem, causing them to feel bad about themselves and their ability to succeed.
As career minded individuals we can be overly critical of our performance at work or the things we say or do, and we question whether we can even succeed in our current position let alone if given a promotion. In school, we find grades slipping and being isolated from our friends.

Self-esteem dictates the relationships we choose, the careers we pursue and the risks we take. If we are confident in who we are and what we are capable of than we usually engage in more healthier relationships and choose people who bring us up rather than tear us down. We are also more inclined to make better career choices, academic decisions, and overall set healthy and realistic goals for ourselves.
