• Perfectionism and Youth Well-Being Webinar

  Sunday, February 28, 2021 | By mblackburn

  Join us Thursday March 11th, 2021 from 6 to 7 PM for a free webinar presented by Dr. Danielle Molnar along with graduate student Melissa Blackburn and Dr. Tabitha Methot-Jones.

  Do you ever feel like you need to be perfect all the time or are afraid to make mistakes? That might be a trait called perfectionism. But what is perfectionism and how does it influence health and well-being in children and youth?

  This free webinar presented via Lifesize will explore that question while also discussing:

  • Why are so many youth experiencing pressure to be perfect?
  • How can parents, educators, and youth-focused practitioners support youth struggling with perfectionism?
  • How are young perfectionists experiencing the pandemic?

  This webinar is free and open to the public, but early registration is required to gain access to the online event. RSVP online at www.brocku.ca/lifespan-development-research/youth-perfectionism/

  Instructions for joining the event will be sent following registration. Please email Jayne Morrish at jmorrish@brocku.ca if you have any questions.
