Newly licensed clinical psychologist dealing with imposter syndrome
Hi there, I’m a newly licensed clinical psychologist and I’ve been feeling a heavy about of anxiety related to my skills and what I bring to the table as a clinician recently. Throughout graduate school I was confident and comfortable outside of my first year, so this is a new feeling for me. I’m working for a group practice that is telehealth so I’m pretty isolated and don’t get a lot of support. It’s definitely a big transition from residency in that I have no supervision or even opportunities for peer consultation. I’ve been trying to seek it on my own and I’m still looking for a peer consultation group to join. My question for the psychologists on this thread is if you found yourself feeling this way when starting off and how have you overcome this feeling?
