Course introduction

Self-esteem and self-worth are about defining who you are and accepting it. Many people, however, judge or criticise themselves unfairly and this can lead to many problems including underperformance, risk-taking, poor communication and relationships, unhelpful habits and addictions. Some people have a constant stream of “poisonous” negative self-criticism that has been called “the pathological critic.” 

This course provides techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural (behavioral) therapy (CBT) and other methods to identify what is interfering with self-esteem and how to stop self-criticism, perform an accurate self-assessment, reduce stress and improve confidence. Specific techniques are outlined relating to specific self-esteem problems, including dealing with distorted thinking, forming healthy values, coping with mistakes, responding to criticism, being assertive in asking for what you want, goal setting, visualization and self-hypnosis techniques. There is also information on child self-esteem.

The course can be taken as a professional development course for counsellors or therapists, or for personal interest.
