Can you legitimately rate the "self"? In this thought provoking workshop, the third in the Professor Windy Dryden seminars, you will discover what self-esteem is and what it is not and it's dangers. The alternative, known as self-acceptance, will be discussed and you will learn how to apply it therapeutically. Most clients present with low self-esteem problems and therefore this workshop is invaluable to all healthcare professionals. Self-esteem problems are common and particularly prevalent in depression, anxiety and other emotional problems as well as at work, in relationships, and with performance-related issues from the creative to the sexual.
