Self Esteem and Confidence

Self Esteem

This individual program will teach you alternative ways to deal with situations that are overwhelming or frightening and allow you to practice being more comfortable with yourself.

Participants will find out what can make a person more positive and assertive if they are cautious, uncertain, anxious, or dominated by fears of various kinds. Reacting with anger, aggression and frustration can also be the result of not having the right skills to assert yourself. Our staff are well experienced at helping people individually and in groups to learn how to be assertive without being clumsy, aggressive or overanxious.

Topics covered include:

• Understand the connection between self-esteem and assertiveness
• Learn reflective listening skills
• Identify the impact of your communication style on relationships, work and your emotional health
• Identify and manage the fears and beliefs that block assertive behaviour or result in aggressive communication styles
• Develop a range of approaches and strategies for enhancing assertive communication in a supportive environment.

Clear Thinking Program

This program will help you to identify and challenge faulty thinking that is keeping you stuck, repeating the same patterns in life and relationships that do not work. Sometimes it is hard to recognise the negative impact of your “self talk”. Our thoughts and self talk can be overly negative or critical, irrational or can be a result of holding onto beliefs or assumptions that are no longer adaptive for us.

Our thoughts are connected to our emotions and behaviour and therefore impact our work, relationships and satisfaction with life. We actually have more control over our thoughts than we give ourselves credit for.

This program will teach you the techniques to be more in control of what you are thinking. Learn how to tame your “inner critic” and see a positive flow-on effect in your moods and relationships and resilience.
