I primarily work with women who identify, or who are on the brink of identifying what it means to be a recovering perfectionist.  However, slowly I’ve been meeting with more men who talk about common themes: there is nowhere to talk about sensitive issues.  Men who are sensitive, artistic, introverted, not interested in a lot of sports or sports-talk- they didn’t feel that there was a space for them.  This was shame-inducing, created isolation, anger, and acting out in different ways.
