Abstract:

Adolescence is a crucial developmental stage characterized by identity formation and self-evaluation. Low self-esteem during this period can lead to emotional instability, poor academic performance, and mental health issues. The present quasi-experimental study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of mirror therapy on self-esteem among adolescent students in selected schools of Silvassa. A total of 70 students aged 13–16 years were selected using a non-probability purposive sampling technique and divided equally into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received mirror therapy with positive affirmations for six consecutive days, while the control group received no intervention. Data were collected using Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale. Findings revealed a significant improvement in post-test mean self-esteem scores in the experimental group (t = 4.768, p = 0.000) compared to the control group. The study concludes that mirror therapy is an effective, simple, and low-cost intervention to enhance self-esteem among adolescents.
