Topic: This presentation demonstrate how a cognitive model of low self-esteem, developed by the presenter, can help clinicians understand the development and maintenance of one of the most common transdiagnostic problems encountered in clinical practice. A coherent treatment programme is suggested, based closely on the model. Key points are illustrated with extracts from therapy sessions with a client with low self-esteem, and there are opportunities to apply the ideas to your own clients.

Presenter: Melanie Fennell was a pioneer of cognitive therapy for depression in the UK, and a founder member of OCTC.
