Building confidence: overcoming low self-esteem in teens
Being a teenager is tough – and also, unfortunately, completely unavoidable. During the turbulence of adolescence, teens go through a lot of confusing changes in their bodies and their hormones. This can cause changes in mood, habits, likes, and behaviour.

All of this can be difficult to adjust to, and their self-esteem may suffer as a result. In this article a leading GP with expertise in mental health shares insight on how to get your teen feeling confident and good about themselves.
