SUMMARY:Live Webinar: Helping High-Achieving Clients Thrive: Evidence-Based
  Strategies for Treating Perfectionism and Burnout
DESCRIPTION:\n\nPresenter: Dr. Karla Steingraber\, Psy.D.\n\n \n\nOverview:
 \nHigh-achieving individuals—including professionals\, students\, and co
 mpe11ve athletes—may present with anxiety\, exhaus1on\, sleep disturbanc
 e\, depressed mood\, or a persistent sense of inadequacy despite substan1a
 l objec1ve success. This presenta1on examines how adap1ve striving can bec
 ome rigid perfec1onism\, con1ngent self-worth\, chronic stress\, and burno
 ut. \n\nDrawing on cogni1ve-behavioral and psychodynamic perspec1ves\, the
  presenta1on dis1nguishes healthy high standards from perfec1onis1c concer
 ns\, emphasizing evidence that perfec1onis1c concerns are associated with 
 psychological distress and burnout (Hill &amp\; Curran\, 2016). A psychody
 namic formula1on adds aden1on to the developmental and rela1onal meanings 
 of achievement\, including internalized expecta1ons\, shame\, self-cri1cis
 m\, iden1ty\, and the ways achievement may become a means of regula1ng sel
 f-esteem. \n\nThese issues are par1cularly salient for athletes\, whose id
 en11es and self-evalua1ons may become closely 1ed to performance outcomes.
  The presenta1on will examine fear of failure\, overcontrol\, diﬃculty r
 ecovering\, and the tendency to interpret performance setbacks as evidence
  of personal inadequacy. \n\nEvidence-based interven1ons will include cogn
 i1ve restructuring\, behavioral experiments\, exposure to imperfec1on\, va
 lues-based work\, psychological ﬂexibility\, and strategies for developi
 ng sustainable performance and diversiﬁed sources of self-worth. The pre
 senta1on will also address the clinical paradox of inadvertently helping h
 igh achievers become more eﬃcient at overfunc1oning. \n\nClinicians will
  be encouraged to integrate empirical evidence\, clinical exper1se\, and i
 ndividual client characteris1cs while considering contextual contributors 
 to burnout.\n\n\n\nCost: SCP Members Free\, $40.00 for Non-Members\n\n\n\n
