Self-Esteem and Self-Image

Rebuilding self-esteem through hypnosis

Self-esteem influences the way you think, feel, and navigate your personal and professional life.
When it weakens, it can create doubt, hesitation, self-criticism or difficulty expressing your needs.
These patterns are not a sign of weakness—they are the result of emotional conditioning, past experiences
or beliefs that became part of your subconscious.
Hypnosis helps transform these internal mechanisms so you can reconnect with confidence, clarity
and inner stability.

Understanding self-image and how it develops

Self-image is the inner picture you hold about yourself: your abilities, your worth, your qualities,
your emotional world and your physical presence.
It develops through your childhood, relationships, education and life experiences.
When this picture becomes distorted, it can lead to self-doubt, excessive self-criticism, perfectionism,
or difficulty making decisions.
Hypnosis helps release old emotional imprints and rebuild a clearer, kinder and more accurate sense of self.

Why hypnosis is effective

Hypnosis works with the subconscious—the part of the mind that stores beliefs, patterns and emotional
memories.
It allows you to:

  • soften negative inner dialogue;
  • release limiting beliefs;
  • strengthen your sense of worth and identity;
  • reduce fear of judgment;
  • restore confidence and emotional grounding;
  • access your natural inner resources.

Professional support backed by 19 years of experience

For the past 19 years, I have supported adults through hypnosis, kinesiology and complementary therapy.
I hold the Swiss Federal Diploma in Complementary Therapy, a nationally recognised qualification that
ensures a high level of expertise and ethical practice.
Each session is personalised and adapted to your sensitivity, your history and your goals.

Signs of weakened self-esteem

You may experience:

  • difficulty expressing yourself;
  • fear of disappointing others;
  • perfectionism or over-adaptation;
  • constant comparison;
  • difficulty making decisions;
  • a feeling of not being “enough.”

A gentle and lasting process

True change happens progressively.
Through hypnosis, your inner voice becomes calmer, your decisions become clearer and your confidence
finds a stable foundation.
The goal is authenticity, not perfection.
