Although every individual’s struggle is specific to them, and therefore experiences improvement based on a treatment tailored to them specifically, low self esteem is most often treated by therapists through assisting and teaching mindset and thought pattern techniques that challenge how someone thinks about themselves or events in their lives. Clients are also taught strategies that assist with maintaining this type of mindset and improve motivation and follow-through so that the client has specific reasons to challenge negative self-perceptions and continue believing and thinking positively.
