DR. SHEILA JOSEPHS
Do you think you have to be perfect all the time? If you do, someone like Sheila Josephs, a psychologist, may be able to help. She’s an expert at helping perfectionists, especially kids, not be so hard on themselves. Josephs initially became interested in helping people overcome their anxieties while she was a camp counselor. “I helped a girl who had completely stopped speaking overcome her fears. Seeing her ultimately give a speech to the whole camp was amazing. Through that experience I learned that I could make a big difference in kids’ lives through providing caring, empathy, and support,” says Josephs.
