Izzy
As a daughter of a narcissistic mother and someone who has endured religious trauma, I want you to know this first: you are not alone. I was born and raised in Pakistan and have navigated my own journey through anxiety, CPTSD, depression, and dyslexia. For a long time, I carried guilt, confusion, and the quiet feeling of never being fully seen. Therapy was a meaningful and supportive part of my healing, and I’m grateful for the clarity it provided. Over time, I also began attending peer support groups, where I experienced something deeply transformative, being witnessed by others who showed up vulnerably and met me as an equal. That sense of shared humanity shifted my healing in profound ways. I originally trained and worked as a medical doctor, but I came to understand that my heart was in creating spaces centered on connection, presence, and lived experience.

Understanding self-esteem
Low self-esteem affects how we see ourselves and engage with the world. It can limit our ability to form meaningful relationships, advocate for our needs, or take steps toward personal growth. When you constantly doubt your worth, everyday life can feel like a struggle. Peer support helps break this cycle by fostering a space where individuals can receive encouragement, validation, and empathy from others who truly understand. Hearing how others manage similar challenges can inspire self-compassion and shift perspectives. Over time, the connection and reflection found in peer sessions can help rebuild confidence from the inside out.
How a Peer Specialist helps with self-esteem
