Developing Self-Worth in Clients
Clients dealing with feelings of worthlessness often engage in behaviors to mask their low self-esteem. Therapy can be ineffective if clients merely go through the motions to avoid rejection. Building a warm and trusting relationship with the therapist is crucial for progress. Through repeated moments of connection, clients can start to challenge their negative self-perceptions and recognize their inherent value beyond mere actions.
