Practical Strategies For Working With a Client’s Feelings of Worthlessness

To help clients shift out of these painful core beliefs, we need to:

• know why the ruminating brain embellishes feelings of self-contempt
• understand the specific biological factors that fuel inadequacy
• understand how self-criticism roots itself in the body
• address the one overlooked fear that directly links feelings of “never good enough” to depression

So we asked 17 of the top experts in the field how they work with feelings of inadequacy. This is the result.
