When parent and teen both struggle with perfectionism

My teenage daughter and I both have perfectionist tendencies and when she's stressed about school we end up in these awful spirals where I'm trying to help but my own anxiety about her performance makes everything worse. We can both see it happening but can't seem to stop it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people with similar wounds are triggering each other's deepest patterns instead of finding mutual healing.
