Je stresse avant chaque présentation au travail. Le rapport a identifié les pensées automatiques qui me bloquent et propose des exercices de restructuration cognitive. Très utile.
Grâce au rapport, j'ai compris que mon anxiété de performance venait de mon perfectionnisme. Les exercices de visualisation et de restructuration cognitive proposés m'aident avant chaque réunion.
