Break Free from Imposter Syndrome

As occupational therapists, we dedicate our lives to helping others overcome obstacles and achieve their fullest potential. Yet, many of us struggle with self-doubt and imposter syndrome. You might feel like no matter how much you learn or achieve, it’s never enough. These feelings are not only common but also incredibly challenging to overcome.

The OT Confidence Code isn't just another book on therapy techniques. It’s a transformative guide that empowers you to overcome self-doubt and embrace your expertise. By mastering these three essential skills, you’ll gain the confidence to deliver exceptional care and achieve outstanding results.

Why This Short Book Is Different

  • Practical Framework: Gain access to a step-by-step framework that integrates these skills into your daily practice.

The OT Confidence Code

Written by Michele Schwartz, Founder of The Virtual Pediatric OT, this book is designed to help you conquer imposter syndrome and achieve professional excellence.


Discover practical strategies to master three crucial skills that you didn't learn in school. With actionable advice and real-world examples, this book will help you build confidence, enhance your effectiveness, and reignite your passion for occupational therapy.

Traditional methods and continuous education often leave us feeling overwhelmed rather than empowered. Despite accumulating advanced certifications, many OTs find themselves unable to effectively apply their knowledge in real-world settings. This gap between knowledge and practice fuels imposter syndrome, making it hard to achieve professional fulfillment.

Who Is This Book For?

  • New OTs looking to build a solid foundation for their practice

  • Experienced OTs wanting to refine their skills and overcome professional challenges

  • OT students eager to supplement their education with practical, real-world skills

  • Anyone in the OT field who feels stuck and wants to rediscover their passion for helping others
