Everything you could possibly ever want, have, or need is right here inside of you – Kristin McGee
Are You Unhappy Being You?
Self-esteem is basically how we see ourselves compared to others. It’s like our overall sense of how much we matter and our personal value. Nobody’s perfect. You’ve heard it a million times, and it’s spot on, but accepting that it’s OK to be less than perfect is something most of us wrestle with. What we really think and feel about ourselves is usually something we keep to ourselves.
We can end up trying to hide away this uncomfortable secret. This can be draining and make us feel alone, unworthy and often leading to negative or harmful behaviour, such as constant people-pleasing, to our own detriment. It doesn’t have to be this way; you can feel happier and stronger being yourself.
Are You Experiencing A Lack of Confidence?
A lack of confidence and feelings of self-doubt can result in feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, or fear of failure. You might be avoiding new challenges or opportunities, limiting your personal and professional growth. Or you might need validation from others, or engage in negative self-talk, undermining your own abilities and potential. You might be able to ‘fake it until you make it’ when needed but suffer from imposter syndrome in the process.
Overall, a lack of confidence can hinder your ability to pursue your goals, form meaningful relationships and navigate life with resilience and optimism. Whereas confidence affords you a more comfortable, rewarding and enriching life.
Confidence means feeling sure of yourself and your abilities – not in an arrogant way, but in a realistic and secure way. Confidence isn’t about feeling superior to others – it’s a quiet, inner knowledge that you’re capable. A welcome and strong sense of ‘I’ve got this’!
How Can Cognitive Hypnotherapy Help?
I provide a caring, safe and non-judgemental space.

How Can I Help With Self-Esteem?
I believe true self-esteem is about fully accepting who we are, the parts we love and the bits we might not be so fond of. This doesn’t mean we stop trying to get better. Actually, it’s the opposite. When we believe we’re good enough as we are, we don’t settle for less and we know we deserve more.
So, boosting how much you value yourself can lead to massive, long-lasting benefits throughout your life.
How Can I Help With Confidence?
I can coach you in using simple and effective tools for quickly creating feelings of confidence, which means you can feel confident when you need it the most.
It’s important for us to figure out why you lack confidence and self-belief. Negative and limiting thoughts about yourself can hold you back and make things harder than they need to be.

Cognitive Hypnotherapy offers a tailored and holistic approach to increasing your confidence by integrating a variety of techniques from cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and positive psychology with hypnosis. This combination targets both the conscious and subconscious aspects of the mind to address negative thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to a lack of confidence.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy offers a unique and effective way to address a lack of confidence and low self-esteem by empowering individuals to change their relationship with their thoughts and emotions.
