1. Overcoming Perfectionism STANTON psychological SERVICES
with
Professor Roz Shafran
“Clinical perfectionism” is the type of perfectionism that poses a clinical problem. At its core is an over evaluation of achievement and striving that causes significant adverse consequences. Clinical perfectionism has been implicated in the maintenance of a range of disorders including eating disorders, anxiety disorders and depression.
This workshop will be interactive and include both experiential and didactic teaching and videos. Participants will have the opportunity to relate the content to their own cases. The workshop objectives are:
To understand a cognitive-behavioural analysis of clinical perfectionism and the factors that contribute to its maintenance
To be familiar with assessment and cognitive-behavioural strategies used to treat clinical perfectionism
To be aware of the current evidence-base for the intervention
