Self-Esteem & Limiting Beliefs

Rediscover Your Worth Beyond the Stories You’ve Been Told

It’s easy to carry messages from the past that whisper “you’re not enough”, whether from childhood, relationships, or your own inner critic. These limiting beliefs can shape how you see yourself and what you believe you deserve. You might feel stuck in patterns of self-doubt, comparison, or perfectionism, wondering if you’ll ever truly feel confident or at peace with who you are.

“Low self-esteem is like driving through life with your handbrake on.” — Maxwell Maltz

Moving beyond limiting beliefs with counselling

Common Experiences I Hear From Clients

  • “I’m always second-guessing myself.”
  • “I feel like I’m pretending to be someone I’m not.”
  • “I can’t accept compliments without feeling awkward.”
  • “I compare myself to others and feel I don’t measure up.”
  • “I avoid trying new things because I’m scared of failing.”
  • “I’m stuck in negative self-talk and can’t seem to quiet it.”

How I Can Help

Together, we’ll gently explore the beliefs and stories that limit you, uncovering their origins and the ways they’ve shaped your life. Using counselling and hypnotherapy, we’ll work on building new, supportive inner narratives that align with your true worth. I’ll support you in developing self-compassion and a deeper connection to your strengths, so you can move forward with greater confidence and freedom.

This is a collaborative, paced process, no rush, just steady growth toward the person you know you are beneath the doubt.

You are enough, just as you are. It’s time to believe it for yourself.
