Over the course of a 30-plus year career as a psychotherapist and author, Dr. Greenspon has given much personal and professional attention and study to this issue. He will share his insights into the distinction between perfectionism and striving for excellence as well as delve into the concept of "healthy perfectionism" as a kind of contradiction in terms. His books and a few others on this topic will be available for sale on the day of the event. Payment for the sale of these books on “Perfectionism” is with cash or check only.
