Therapy For Self-esteem In Oc
As humans, it’s normal to sometimes lack confidence or not feel great about ourselves.
Loving and accepting yourself is vital to your emotional wellness. It’s not uncommon for us to struggle to offer ourselves the same compassion and understanding that we readily give to others. However when low self-esteem becomes a consistent problem, it can have harmful effects on how we perceive, interact and relate to the world. Working on self-esteem in a therapeutic setting can help shift this tendency and help you learn how to also nurture yourself in this way.
When our self-esteem is low, we often see ourselves and our lives from a more critical and negative viewpoint. We may feel less equipped to confidently handle stress and difficulties that life brings.
