RSM and BAPAM Present: Self-esteem, Self-doubt and Imposter Syndrome

From a young age musicians are training to be performers with regular feedback from those closest to them. This can be internalised and can lead to low self-esteem and self-doubting behaviour.

In this session, counsellor and psychotherapist Lauran Duenster looks at the signs of low self-esteem, imposter syndrome and perfectionism with a focus on how to challenge these thoughts and behaviours, covering the following topics:

  • Self-doubting behaviours and thoughts

  • Signs of low self-esteem

  • Low self-esteem and performers

  • Imposter syndrome, perfectionism

  • What healthy self-esteem looks like

  • Techniques to challenge self-doubting thoughts, behaviours, imposter syndrome and perfectionism
