Imposter Syndrome
Imposter Syndrome involves persistent self-doubt and the belief that one’s success is undeserved or the result of luck rather than ability. Despite external evidence of competence, individuals may fear being “found out” or exposed as a fraud. This pattern often creates chronic stress, perfectionism, and emotional exhaustion, even among high achievers.
ShiftGrit clinicians apply the ShiftGrit Core Method™ to identify and recondition the limiting beliefs that drive feelings of inadequacy and overcompensation. Through this process, clients can shift from self-criticism to self-trust—cultivating confidence that feels earned, stable, and internally grounded.
