📅 Thursday, December 10 | 7:00 PM
Zoom Link Emailed After Course Is Purchased
Self-esteem plays an important role in how individuals view themselves, navigate relationships, and respond to life's challenges. Supporting clients in developing a healthier relationship with themselves is an essential part of therapeutic work. This interactive training session is designed for social work and psychotherapy students, as well as new therapy graduates, looking to expand their clinical toolkit with creative, practical strategies for strengthening self-worth, challenging negative self-talk, and building self-compassion.
Participants will explore how self-esteem develops, the impact of self-criticism and perfectionism, and the ways individuals may struggle to recognize their own strengths and positive qualities. Through engaging activities such as the Three Good People Exercise, Strengths Wall, and Self-Esteem Jar, we'll introduce creative approaches to helping clients identify personal strengths, recognize their value, and develop a more balanced and compassionate view of themselves.
The session will also explore practical strategies for addressing negative self-talk, reframing unhelpful thinking patterns, and introducing neutral language as an alternative to overly critical or unrealistic positive self-statements. Participants will be introduced to the Compassion Pause mindfulness exercise, along with interactive activities such as the Perfection Game and Trust Drawing Exercise, to explore perfectionism, self-judgment, vulnerability, and the impact of internal dialogue on emotional well-being.
Throughout the session, we'll discuss how these activities can be adapted to different client needs and incorporated into individual therapy to encourage self-reflection, emotional awareness, and personal growth.
Participants will leave with practical, adaptable exercises and therapeutic interventions they can begin incorporating into their clinical work to help clients challenge self-critical thinking, recognize their strengths, develop self-compassion, and build a healthier relationship with themselves.
Handouts and practical resources are included.
