Self Esteem
In a world where our teenagers are being taught from the time they are children what they should look like, what to wear, that their body should look a certain way to be accepted…the list goes on; it is important, now more than ever, to instill that loving and accepting themselves is the most pivotal decision they will make as young individuals.
In our therapy sessions, our counselors will help:
- Build trust
- Inspire self-acceptance
- Encourage autonomy
- Talk about the importance of advocating and finding their voice
- Challenge them to look inward for validation
- Remind her of the power in numbers; supporting their peers
- Welcome failures as a part of growing and learning
An individual needs to be reminded that they are loved and unique in order to build the confidence they need to understand the importance of their self-worth.
“If you constantly think of illness, you eventually become ill. If you believe yourself to be beautiful, you become so.
