Self-Esteem Therapy Denver
Do you talk to yourself in a way you would never consider talking to your best friend, kids, or partner?
Do you wish you could feel confident in your skin?
The Toll of Low Self-Esteem
Maybe your inner critic has been so loud for so long that her constant berating feels like a normal part of your life. You may suspect that if you showed your true self, you’d no longer deserve love or belonging, so you’re always performing, constantly putting on a mask.
Perhaps you've pushed yourself to the brink, running on empty, trying to meet the impossibly high standards you've set for yourself. And when you inevitably fall short, you’re left feeling worthless.
Whatever form this inner negativity takes, you're starting to see it seep into every part of your life.
Low Self-Esteem and Relationships
You hold yourself back from fully connecting with others, convinced you're not worthy of being truly known. The fear of being judged or rejected keeps you at arm’s length, preventing deep, meaningful connections.
You even have trouble communicating your needs to your partner. Even though part of you knows their love is unconditional, you can't help but fear being too much and getting rejected.
Low Self-Esteem at Work
You shrink back from being bold or taking risks in your career. You tell yourself that you'll probably fail anyway, so why bother trying something new or stepping into the spotlight? The fear of failure is paralyzing, leaving you stuck in a cycle of playing it safe, even when playing it safe means staying somewhere you're not happy.
How Therapy for Self-Esteem Can Help
Spending time in your own mind has become exhausting. You keep a mental checklist of all your faults, preparing yourself for criticism before anyone else can deliver it. This constant self-monitoring is meant to protect you, but it only deepens the sense of insecurity and inadequacy.
At every turn, this inner negativity is wearing you down. It’s affecting your relationships, your career, and your relationship with yourself. And you’re realizing more and more that it’s time for a change—but you’re not sure where to start.
If this sounds familiar, therapy for self-esteem in Denver can help you reconnect with your confidence, calm your inner critic, and get back to the you that feels most like you.
A Different Way Forward
You don’t have to be at war with yourself. Therapy for self-esteem offers a way to understand the origins of your self-criticism, shift the way you speak to yourself, and reconnect with the part of you that knows your worth. Together, we’ll work to:
Identify where the critical voice in your head comes from and what she is trying to do for you (hint: her intentions aren't as malicious as you think).
See yourself in a more compassionate light; fully embracing your strengths and flaws.
Pursue what is important to you with confidence.
Strengthen trust in your own inner wisdom so decisions feel less like a battle.
This isn’t about erasing every insecure thought. It’s about changing your relationship with yourself so you can meet challenges with self-trust instead of self-doubt.
