Their book was a finalist for the Foreword INDIES Book Award. Her second book, Your Unstoppable Greatness: Break Free of Impostor Syndrome, Cultivate Your Agency, and Achieve Your Ultimate Career Goals (Ulysses Press, 2022) is focused on dealing with the systemic dynamics in workplaces and cultures that keep impostor syndrome in place and how to directly combat those dynamics.

He earned his PhD in counseling psychology from Fordham University’s Graduate School of Education and his BA in psychology from NYU. In his practice, Dr. Orbé-Austin works with executives, senior leaders, and mid-career professionals to overcome impostor syndrome, identify their best-fit career options, advance their career goals, and strengthen their leadership skills.
