This workshop explores how cultivating authentic spaces of belonging can help students struggling with perfectionism. Participants will understand the interconnected nature of belonging, perfectionism and mental health in student development, particularly in high-achieving environments. The program equips professionals with practical strategies for implementing belonging-centered interventions to foster environments where students can move beyond perfectionist tendencies toward more creative, collaborative, and balanced approaches to achievement.
