Therapist Imposter Syndrome

Absolutely! Many qualified therapists experience self-doubt, fear, and feelings of inadequacy despite their training and experience.

Therapists with imposter syndrome may downplay successes, doubt their expertise, and struggle with perfectionism or anxiety about client evaluation.

Therapists can challenge negative thoughts, focus on growth, celebrate accomplishments, seek colleague support, and utilize tools to track progress and build self-esteem and confidence.
