The Link Between Procrastination, Perfectionism and Anxiety in Children

Jul 08, 2022

Is your child a perfectionist, a procrastinator or maybe both?
In this week's video I am exploring these behaviours and the link between them and anxiety.
Some people think of perfectionism and procrastination as just personality traits,  but the truth is we often see them in children who struggle with underlying anxiety, and it is possible to help a child overcome them with the right support.
You can watch the video below; I hope you find it helpful.
Warmest wishes
