LOW CONFIDENCE & SELF-ESTEEM

Having difficulty trusting yourself, speaking up, or feeling confident in your choices?

Confidence & Self-esteem

Perhaps you notice self-doubt creeping in, hesitation when making decisions, or feeling that your abilities aren’t enough. You might struggle with low self-worth, fear of failure, perfectionism, or difficulty handling criticism. These experiences are common and they can be improved with the right support.

Confidence is the belief in your own abilities, while self-esteem is the overall opinion you have of yourself. Both are important for wellbeing, relationships, and personal growth. When confidence and self-esteem feel low, it can affect your motivation, relationships, and how you show up in the world.

Lack of confidence doesn’t mean you’re incapable, it’s a signal that you may need space, support, and tools to reconnect with your strengths.

By building a positive self-image and learning to trust yourself, you can feel more grounded, capable, and resilient.
