Therapy for Self-Esteem & Belonging in Toronto & Online Across Canada

Therapy for teens and young adults who struggle with feeling not good enough, people-pleasing, and questioning where they fit in.

You look like you have it together on the outside, but inside you’re constantly wondering if you’re falling short.

​

You feel pressure to be "better," do more, or stay quiet about what you really need.

​

You want to stop feeling like you’re too much and not enough all at once.

What Therapy for Self-Esteem & Belonging Can Help With:

  • Chronic self-doubt and negative self-talk

  • People-pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries

  • Perfectionism and fear of failure

  • Social anxiety or feeling like an outsider

  • Shame from past experiences or identity invalidation

  • Struggles with body image or self-worth

  • Navigating cultural identity, intersectionality, or mixed identities

  • Finding belonging as a neurodivergent or highly sensitive person

If you’re constantly overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or trying to earn your worth through achievement, it’s easy to lose sight of your own voice.

Whether you’ve always felt different, like you don’t quite belong, or you’re just tired of chasing “enough,” therapy can help you reconnect with who you are, not who the world told you to be.

Methods

How I Support You
I work collaboratively and gently to help you:

  • Identify and unblend from your inner critic

  • Reconnect with your values and inner strengths

  • Build self-compassion, self-advocacy, and emotional resilience

  • Explore what belonging means to you, not just fitting in

  • Support healing from identity-based trauma or invalidation

I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behaviour

Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and parts work, tailored to your unique needs and lived experience.
