Starting Self-esteem counseling

What is self-esteem counseling?

Self-esteem counseling is a therapeutic technique that works to improve an individual’s self-esteem and, through that, their overall mental health. Self-esteem counselors will help clients discover the roots of their poor self-esteem and work with them to build it back up and improve their quality of life.

How does self-esteem counseling work?

Self-esteem counseling works by addressing thought or behavioral patterns that may be connected to an individual’s low self-esteem and adjusting them to be more helpful and uplifting. Through this process, Thriveworks therapists in Henrico will help clients better understand the reasons behind their low self-esteem and learn to effectively address those reasons, both in therapy and on their own.

Is self-esteem counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks self-esteem counseling in Henrico, VA is conducted both in person and virtually through online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does self-esteem counseling last?

On average, self-esteem counseling can last around 12 sessions. However, the needs and symptoms of each client will always vary, which means that the duration of counseling will differ as well. Some may find they only require a few sessions, while others might prefer to stay in counseling on an ongoing basis.
