Transforming Perfectionism Course – Jay Earley & Bonnie Weiss

Jay Earley, PhD, and Bonnie Weiss, LSCW

Do you feel that the work you produce is never good enough? Do you work endlessly on projects or run them right up to the deadline? Is it hard for you to even start on a project because you fear it won’t be good enough? Do you sit staring at your computer, unable to get going? Do you feel that your appearance, your home, or your children must be perfect or else you are a failure? Do you believe that making a mistake is the worst thing you can do?

If you answered yes to some of these questions, you may be one of the many people suffering from Perfectionism. If so, you have a need to be perfect that goes far beyond what is actually required for excellence. This overblown demand on yourself can get in the way of your getting jobs done on time because you spend far too much time on them. Alternatively, it can lead you to procrastinate and avoid working on projects.

Perfectionism can cause you to be uptight and worried much of the time. It can keep you from being relaxed and having fun and joy in life. It can unbalance your life because you spend far too much time on work or other attempts to be perfect, leaving little time for family, friends, love, and creativity.

Your need for perfection is probably based on fears that are unconscious and come from unresolved childhood pain. Our Transforming Perfectionism Course will help you to understand and work through these fears using Internal Family Systems Therapy, a powerful, cutting-edge, user-friendly method that is revolutionizing the practice of psychotherapy.

You will be able to transform your Perfectionism into a resource rather than a problem The course is unique in including both deep internal work and practical strategies and exercises for overcoming perfectionism in your life.

As a result, you will be more present in each moment and less anxious about the outcome of your work. You’ll be able to discriminate when your work feels “good enough” and allow it to come to a natural completion without forcing it to be perfect. The book will help you do your work in a way that flows, so you can feel more pleasure and lightness. You’ll go through your life in a more relaxed way, without pushing, yet still make progress with your work. By letting go of the struggle to be perfect, you will find time for your other needs, such as socializing, relaxation, fun, and personal health.

In the end, you will be much more at ease as you produce excellent work, while having a balanced, relaxed, and happy life.

Module 5: Recorded IFS Therapy Sessions

We have included two recorded sessions of Bonnie Weiss working with clients who have Perfectionism issues. They will give you a more experiential understanding of how IFS works with Perfectionism in practice:

Perfectionist A – Getting to Know and Unburdening a Critic. In this IFS session, the client identifies the Perfectionist Critic, separates from parts that have attitudes or feelings toward it, and places the child who is being hurt by the Critic in a safe place in order to get into Self. Then she gets to know the Critic, understands its motivations, updates it, brings it into the present, and unburdens it.

Perfectionist B – Unblending from the Criticized Child and Transforming the Critic. This session is a good example of a client’s difficulty in articulating the Critic because she is blended with the child part who is being criticized. Bonnie helps her to differentiate what is going on in her system and separate the voices. She then can get a clear picture of the Critic, unearth the childhood memories of its origin, retrieve and unburden the exile, and transform the Critic.

Module 6: IFS Guided Meditation

To help you further with this process, you can work on yourself using our guided meditation Working with Your Perfectionist Part Using IFS. This takes you through the process of accessing your Perfectionist Part, getting to know it, and developing a trusting relationship with it.

Module 7: Session with an IFS Therapist
