Self Esteem Counselling in Bedlington
Dealing with anxiety and depression can be overwhelming, and starting therapy is a significant step toward healing. While talking can be helpful, it isn’t always enough—sometimes it’s difficult to put our thoughts and feelings into words, or we may simply feel exhausted from trying. Arts Psychotherapies, like Dramatherapy, offer an alternative way to explore and express emotions that words can’t fully capture.

Both are wonderful tools for low self esteem and confidence issues.
I offer a safe and non-judgemental enviroment where I help people solve the problems that they are dealing with. I want my clients to walk away from our time together with the tools to maintain the changes they have worked for and a new found or rediscovered confidence in themselves and life. My therapy is practical, straight forward and it works. Cognitive behaviour therapy was designed for anxiety related issues from panic to OCD. It is perfect for depression or anger issues. As a qualified hypnotherapist I also teach relaxation and mindfillness meditation to those who want that extra dimension to their therapy.

I help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. They may be juggling work, family, relationships, or expectations that leave little space for themselves. Deep down, they know something needs to change. They want to feel more in control, more confident, and more connected to who they really are. They may be used to coping alone, feeling like they “should” have it together by now. What they really need is a safe space to pause, reflect, and find a way through with support, not pressure. They may feel lost in people-pleasing, burnout, or self-doubt. Underneath all that noise is someone longing to be heard.

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, you're just not quite good enough? Maybe it feels more extreme and often you feel like you hate yourself? Perhaps outwardly you are a confident and successful person but inwardly something just doesn't feel right? Low self-esteem can show up in various different ways - sometimes it's hard to even identify. Low self-esteem often pairs up with anxiety and/or depression. Together we can set achievable goals and work together to make sustainable and lasting changes for life.

Co founder of F&B Digital Therapy & specialist neurodivergent and low self-esteem therapist. Based in Teesside but seeing clients globally.
I'm late diagnosed AuDHD, so I get what it's like to feel weird & not fit in. If you hide behind a mask to feel normal, constantly feeling misunderstood & not knowing who you really are, this doesn't have to stay this way.
Always doubting yourself can lead to anxiety, overthinking, rejection sensitivity, low motivation, overwhelm, eating issues & OCD. But there's another story, one where you learn how to trust yourself, live authentically, become self-confident and finally feel good enough.

Self Esteem Counsellors
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.
