Do you feel like you'll never be a 'good enough' therapist? Do you over-prepare for sessions, or procrastinate on reports? You might be a perfectionist. Today on Mental Work, Bron is joined by Kate Christie (Psychologist in schools and private practice) to unpack perfectionism among therapists. They touch on 👉🏽 The role that perfectionism plays in burnout 👉🏻 How perfectionism shows up in the therapy room 👉 The benefits of perfectionism 👉🏿 Practical tips for reducing the downsides of perfectionism in our work.
