How to Deal with Low Self-Esteem A 5-step, CBT-based plan for overcoming negative thoughts and eliminating self-doubt

Most of us feel uncertain sometimes: about ourselves, the views of others and our lives generally. However, recurrent negative thoughts can lead to low self esteem which can be very debilitating and prevents us from enjoying life as we should. Our thoughts about ourselves become deeply negative, over-critical and recurrent, leaving us feeling trapped in a low self esteem spiral with no way out. If this sounds familiar to you, this book will provide you with practical help to deal with and overcome the problem.
Using the STEP Past system - a structured, CBT-based approach that delivers both support and proven techniques for defeating low self-esteem - you can begin to transform your daily life. Written by an expert author with many years of clinical experience, this book will help you get a better understanding of your sense of self, tackle negative thoughts and behaviour, and progress to a healthier, happier outlook, without fear of setbacks or relapse.
