Confidence and the self-employed (do I need NLP or something?)

I have been working for myself for 2 years, and have managed well; constant supply of work, some well paid, some business development. The thing is, I quite often suffer with a huge lack of confidence in myself, and my abilities. I have a little script in my head that goes 'they will find out you're no good, and where will that get you?' or 'you'll just make it worse, you know'. Unreasonably, I think, because I have great feedback from clients, and on good days I know I'm good at what I do. But I don't really believe that I'm good at it, iyswim. This is becoming a problem; my clients need me to believe that I'm good at what I do and it's preventing a reasonable business becoming a really great one. I would also like to tackle this because it's not making me happy, while I know being effective in my work will. Can anyone share any tips for self-belief? Wondering if NLP would help? TIA.
