Feel like you're faking it, even when you're thriving? You're not alone—and you're not a fraud.

You’ve worked hard. You’ve achieved a lot. So why does it still feel like you don’t belong? You might be the one everyone looks to in meetings, the go-to problem solver in your team, or the parent balancing work and home like it’s second nature—and yet, a voice inside you whispers: “They’re going to figure me out.”

That’s imposter syndrome. And while it’s not an official diagnosis, it’s very real—and deeply draining.

At The Keely Group Online Therapy, we offer imposter syndrome therapy in NYC, helping professionals, creatives, and caregivers recognize imposter syndrome for what it is: a pattern, not a fact. If you're looking for a therapist who specializes in imposter syndrome, you’re in the right place.

What Does Imposter Syndrome Look Like?

Imposter syndrome often shows up like this:

  • Feeling like a fraud, despite clear evidence of success 

  • Attributing achievements to luck or timing, not ability or competence

  • Constantly fearing failure or “being found out” 

  • Downplaying strengths and overemphasizing mistakes 

  • Overworking to prove yourself (and burning out in the process) 

  • Struggling to accept praise or positive feedback 

For many, it’s not just about work. It can bleed into parenting, relationships, education, and self-worth. And it often shows up more intensely for women, BIPOC professionals, queer people, first-generation students, and high-achievers who have been told to “prove themselves” over and over.

A Note for Women in Leadership

If you're a woman in a leadership role, you may feel a unique pressure to perform flawlessly—to lead with strength while being liked, to take up space without taking too much, and to succeed in environments that weren’t always built with you in mind. Therapy for women in leadership can help you explore these complex pressures and dismantle the self-doubt they create. You can learn to lead from a place of grounded confidence—not perfectionism.

You Don’t Have to Keep Proving You Belong

Imposter syndrome doesn’t mean you’re not good enough—it means you’ve learned to question yourself, often in environments that rewarded perfectionism and punished vulnerability.

Imposter syndrome therapy can help you:

  • Understand the roots of your self-doubt 

  • Challenge internalized beliefs about success and worth 

  • Develop healthier self-talk and confidence 

  • Set boundaries with overwork and people-pleasing 

  • Reconnect with your values and identity beyond achievement 

You don’t need to keep pushing harder to feel “legitimate.” You just need a space to untangle the pressure from the truth—and that’s exactly what online therapy for imposter syndrome can offer.
