What kind of talk therapy did you try that didn't work too well? There are so many kinds--CBT, psychodynamic, gestalt, interpersonal, humanistic, etc.

This paragraph made me think maybe you might find humanistic therapy helpful. Humanistic is all about human potential, helping you become the person you can be, helping with self confidence, etc. It isn't really "tools focused", but combining humanistic with an approach strong on tools (mild CBT?) might be a good mix.
I think having a kind therapist who really "gets" you and values you will also help with self esteem and confidence. A therapist strong on unconditional positive regard... (again, the humanist connection)
Good luck, Maliya.
