LOW SELF-ESTEEM THERAPY IN NYC

You are good enough!

If you're having trouble believing that statement, we can help.

Low self-esteem can prevent you from living a full and rewarding life. Perhaps you’re feeling down about how you look … or the way you feel … or what you’re capable of doing … or even the things you think about.

It may be hard to pursue educational and career goals. Or, you may be allowing friends, family, peers, and even romantic partners to treat you poorly. Odds are, these thoughts have prevented you from doing something you wanted to do.

Fortunately, you can change the way you think.

Low self-esteem in action

Low self-esteem can manifest itself in many different ways. For example, you might put something off until later because you “can’t deal with doing it now.” Or, you may engage in activities you later regret … just because you thought it would “make you feel better later.” For example:

Substance use
Not studying for a test or writing a paper
Dropping out of school
Engaging in risky sexual relationships
Self harm
Unhealthy eating patterns

Low self-esteem often makes you doubt your self-worth or feel like you aren’t good enough. This can prevent you from all sorts of “regular life activities,” including:

Applying for a job
Keeping in touch with friends
Going to college
Dating

How can therapy help?

The first thing we’ll do is help you identify the harmful thought patterns associated with low self-esteem.

From there, we’ll work together to change your unhelpful thinking patterns … and create new behaviors to help rebuild your self-esteem over time. You’ll learn how to break the cycle of feeling badly about yourself and learning new ways to boost your self-worth, whether that’s stopping maladaptive behaviors or starting healthy alternatives.

We want to prevent low self-esteem from feeling like it’s controlling your life. You are worthy and good enough, and we want to help you believe that too.
