I have older children and teens with perfectionist tendencies. Anxiety over trying new things, fear of failure, unwilling to ask for assistance etc.. They are being helped.
I am now seeing the same tendencies in my 4 year old. Seeing as I'm much more aware now, what type of therapist would be helpful?
I'd like to deal with this earlier rather than later when things are more engrained.
Obviously we are parenting in ways that allow for failure, trying new things etc.,DH exactly like this, so I'm sure there is some genetic component.

CBT is probably the ideal type of therapy for this.

I had this with my 9 y.o.. He was treated by the Guttmann sisters of Hands on OT. When my daughter was 3, I took her to them too. I honestly feel they saved my family. They specialize in anxiety and processing, using a physiological approach. It was my psychologist who recommended I go to them as the CBT wasn’t having long term results. Good luck.

Thank you. I'm not in NY, but she does have an OT for a different issue. Maybe I'll speak with her for ideas.

Perfectionism is often ocd, test for pandas. Especially if familial.
