Low Confidence and Low Self-Esteem

  • Do you avoid risks?
  • Do you fear new experiences?
  • Are you in constant doubt about your life?
  • Do you have a strong need for approval?
  • Are you sensitive to criticism?
  • Do you tend to speak harshly to yourself and reject yourself as you are?

Lacking confidence is about lacking faith in your abilities. It can be specific or broad (speaking in public, job interviews, making a presentation, driving, …). Self-esteem relates to self-worth and how much you accept yourself as you are. Very often low confidence and self-esteem are linked. Whatever the cause (physical appearance, childhood, relationship, ..), lack of confidence and self-esteem can profoundly impact someone’s life by stopping them from doing the things they would like to do and ultimately having the life they would really like to have.

Clients who come to me for weight problems, stress or even career issues might have underlying confidence and self-esteem issues. We work on:

- recognising the signs of low confidence and self-esteem and the high and low confidence pattern

- spotting the limiting beliefs, the negative language and internal voice

- building confidence and self-belief through NLP exercises
