Confidence and Self Esteem

These issues are amongst the most frequent treated by this practice and fortunately respond very well to the unique combination of therapies we offer.

Lack of confidence and low self esteem are very closely related. Self confidence is a vital part of self esteem.

An important point to remember for anyone suffering from lack of confidence or low self esteem, is that you were not born this way! We are all born WITH confidence, babies are confident! they cry and they expect to be fed, they explore and they have no fear. Lack of confidence and low self esteem are learned and what has been learned can be unlearned!

Another interesting fact is that many of the patients we treat with confidence issues, outwardly appear the most confident people you could wish to meet. Appearing confident does not necessarily mean someone is confident, there is a world of difference between composure and ease. Many people are able to act confidently (be composed) but that does not always reflect what they feel inside.

Often when we look in the mirror, what we see is not reality, nor what others see, but our "self image" (this is how it is possible for someone to be anorexic for example). When we have low self esteem , this self image is often a negative and unrealistic view of ourselves.
