Continuing our series, All About Teens, listen in this week as therapists, Michelle Alexander and Jared Jones, discuss the positive and negative aspects of being a perfectionist or high achiever, and what parents can do to encourage excellence over perfection. Join us as we offer you practical solutions as you parent your child through these formative years, including modeling that personal value is not dependent upon outcomes and productivity.
