HOBOKEN — On Thursday, January 22 at 7 p.m., as part of its ongoing lecture and film series for parents and members of the community, The Hudson School will offer a presentation by Ronald Wasser, PhD., “The Perfection of Being Imperfect: Helping Kids Reduce Pressure, Perfectionism, Anxiety, and Depression.”
Wasser will discuss the pressure and perfectionism children and adolescents grapple with, how those forces impact their self-esteem and self worth, and ways they and their parents can help them navigate these choppy waters. Dr. Wasser looks forward to answering parents’ questions and having a thoughtful discussion regarding these issues.
Dr. Ronald Wasser is a psychologist in private practice in Montclair, NJ who specializes in working with children and teenagers. Particular areas of focus include anxiety, depression, self esteem, self worth, self concept and dealing with pressure and perfectionism.
The Hudson School’s Think Thursdays series was founded in 2010 to educate and inform the over-18 crowd with a lecture and film series aimed at adults. The series, Think Thursdays, features guest speakers, local authors, and films covering a broad range of topics. Suggested donation is $7 for Hudson School family members and $10 for the general public. Students may attend for free. All are welcome to attend.
