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:
