Self-esteem & self-confidence
Feeling good about oneself, a pillar of well-being
Self-esteem represents the value we place on ourselves as a person. Self-confidence, on the other hand, reflects our perception of our abilities to act or succeed. Together, they influence how we behave, make decisions, maintain our relationships… and live our lives.
A lack of self-esteem or confidence can prevent you from taking risks, asserting yourself, saying no, or even recognizing your successes. We help you develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself, at your own pace and according to your needs.
Common signs of low self-esteem or self-confidence
Difficulty asserting oneself or setting boundaries
Constant doubt regarding his decisions
Feeling of being "not good enough" or of being an imposter
Excessive fear of failure or judgment
Tendency to compare oneself negatively to others
Excessive need for validation or approval
Discomfort in speaking up or expressing one's opinion
Biased perception of one's image or value
These manifestations can negatively impact quality of life, relationships, career, and overall mental health.
