In our approach to self-esteem, we guide clients in understanding the crucial difference between self-worth and self-esteem. Self-worth is an inherent quality, something fundamental that cannot be added to or diminished, while self-esteem is something we possess—an evaluation of our abilities and qualities. We help clients reconnect with their intrinsic self-worth, which forms the foundation for genuine self-esteem.

By recognizing their inherent value, clients can more effectively develop the abilities and qualities that foster a deeper connection to their experiences. This process shifts the focus of self-esteem from merely feeling good about oneself to cultivating the ability to truly value oneself, leading to a more authentic and grounded sense of self.
