Standard - $129.99 $68.89 Anniversary Sale 2026 - 47% off!

Deep down, the majority of successful people spend a good amount of time questioning their professional legitimacy. The result can be debilitating self-doubt and rumination, affecting everything from their work to their relationships. You might even be one of these self-doubters! So how can we help people break free of this so-called imposter “syndrome”? In this workshop, learn Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to help clients manage their imposterism and live up to their full professional potential—without being usurped by the crippling burden of self-doubt. You’ll explore why your clients (and you!) develop imposter thoughts, fall into traps trying to outrun the imposter experience, and how to take actionable steps toward cultivating psychological flexibility—the main goal of ACT---to move confidently in the direction of your most deeply held values. You’ll also learn:  

  • Which people are most vulnerable to the imposter experience—and why  
  • The five imposter subtypes—and how to work with them in the therapy room 
  • ACT metaphors and experiential exercises to bring your work to life for clients
