Perfectionism can both motivate and inhibit the success of high-achieving students. In this session, we will consider the connections between perfectionism, anxiety, depression, and other aspects of students’ mental health. We will then discuss strategies to support students in identifying and managing their own perfectionism, promoting self-care, and compassion.
