I offer services that comfort people and assist them to build their skills, even when they don't think they can.

I know reaching out can feel like a big step, especially when you're already feeling stretched. It’s completely normal to feel unsure about starting therapy - many people do. But you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just unsure about your next step, I’m here to help. Maybe anxiety, self-doubt, or relationship struggles are weighing you down. Or perhaps you’ve been carrying the impact of past trauma, and you're ready to find relief. Whatever has brought you here, you deserve a space where you feel truly heard, supported, and understood.

I strongly believe that every person has a purpose and set of skills/strengths they bring into this world; however, that sometimes inconvenient/negative circumstances or unhealthy relationships can derail this potential by planting a seed of self-doubt into our minds. Regardless of where it applies to an individual's life (e.g. marriage, career, etc.), it would be my privilege to help clients along the way to achieving their life goals/vision by helping them identify and deal with any stumbling blocks in their way. Life loves to throw curveballs (it wouldn't be interesting if it didn't), but I'd love to prepare my clients for them!

My name is Natalie, I am a neurodivergent counsellor trained in experiential approaches including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Coherence Therapy, and EMDR. These approaches engage the brain’s memory reconsolidation (or memory updating) process, transforming traumatic memories and unhelpful beliefs to alleviate distress including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, burnout, and self-sabotage. Updating memories in experiential therapy can shift old reaction patterns, creating “aha!” moments of new insight and clarity. People often (re)discover a calm, confident, curious self, a place from which meaningful change begins.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.

What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.

What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.

How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
