We Belong: The Intersectionality of Impostor Syndrome for BIPOC LGBTQIA+ SLPs

SLP

Most Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) are told they will experience impostor syndrome at some point in their careers. While the impostor phenomenon has widely been discussed and researched over the last decade, the body of research has focused on individual analysis. This course will take a closer at the intersectionality of impostor syndrome within the field of speech-language pathology. Attendees will be able to define impostor syndrome and intersectionality, discuss external factors that impact Black, Indigenous, people of color (BIPOC) lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA+) SLPs, identify opportunities to demonstrate allyship, and learn strategies to combat impostor syndrome.
