Imposter syndrome can affect psychologists and other mental health professionals at all stages of our careers. Being relied on by our clients can lead to us putting pressure on ourselves to the extent that we can have distorted expectations of our performance and our capabilities. Left unchecked, imposter syndrome can snowball into anxiety, perfectionism and feelings of inadequacy.

But did you know that empirical evidence also shows that professional self doubt is related to positive therapeutic alliance?

In this upbeat webinar by Psychologists Dr Nathan Castle and Dr Ben Buchanan we’ll explore empirical research related to professional self doubt. We’ll also focus on how to harness the power of imposter syndrome to engage in healthy and affirming reflective practice.

You’ll learn:

- A method for identifying helpful and unhelpful professional self doubt
- Learn to hone in on your beliefs around your professional skills using the Counselling Self Estimate Inventory
- Understand how professional self doubt interacts with client outcomes (hint: it helps your clients if you doubt yourself a bit!)
- Learn ways to engage in professional self care and develop a sense of healthy professional self efficacy
