As witnessed by the ever popular "I'm a perfectionist" response to questions about a person's greatest weakness, perfectionism is viewed by many of us as a mildly negative yet also rather positive personality trait. While we may know isn't necessarily good for us, it often well regarded in our culture and even celebrated. Yet, as I've frequently seen in my counselling practice, chronic perfectionism can become problematic, and even contribute to serious mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. In this video made in partnership with the Ontario Bar Association, I speak about this important issue and different ways to help overcome it.
