What does it mean to work on confidence in therapy?
Working on confidence in therapy involves exploring the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that shape how you see yourself. A therapist can help you identify patterns of self-doubt or criticism, understand where they come from, and develop new ways of relating to yourself. This might include building self-compassion, challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, or practicing skills that help you feel more grounded in who you are.
How can therapy help with confidence?
Therapy offers a supportive space to examine what's affecting your confidence without judgment. Many people find that exploring past experiences, relationships, or messages they received growing up helps them understand current struggles. A therapist can also help you set goals, try new approaches, and celebrate progress along the way. Over time, many people develop a more stable and authentic sense of self-worth.
What should I expect in sessions focused on confidence?
Sessions often involve conversations about situations where you feel confident or unconfident, and what thoughts and feelings come up in those moments. Your therapist may invite you to reflect on your strengths, explore your values, and identify small steps you can take between sessions. Some therapists use structured approaches like CBT, while others take a more exploratory route. The pace depends on what feels most useful to you.
How do I find a therapist for confidence?
On First Session, you can browse therapists who list confidence or self-esteem as a focus area. Watching intro videos helps you get a sense of each therapist's style before booking. You can also filter by location, availability, and session format. Many therapists offer free consultations, which can help you decide if they're the right fit.
Is therapy for confidence right for me?
If self-doubt is affecting your relationships, career, or overall well-being, therapy can be a helpful space to explore what's going on. You don't need a specific diagnosis or crisis to seek support. Many people come to therapy simply wanting to feel more comfortable in their own skin and more able to pursue what matters to them.
How do I get started?
Browse therapists on First Session who work with confidence. Watch their intro videos, read about their approach, and book a session directly online when you find someone who resonates. Taking that first step can feel uncomfortable, but it's often the beginning of meaningful change.
