Alex Stachowski
Counselor/Therapist, APC, NCC, MA
Perfectionism can look like having everything together while privately struggling with self-doubt, overthinking, fear of failure, or the feeling that you’re never quite doing enough. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and expectations keeping you stuck while building greater self-compassion, flexibility, and confidence to live according to your values rather than the pressure to get everything right.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Perfectionism often develops as a way to seek approval, avoid criticism, or maintain a sense of control. While it can drive achievement, it can also lead to burnout, anxiety, shame, and difficulty feeling satisfied. For many individuals, cultural and familial expectations play a significant role in perfectionistic patterns. Therapy can help you challenge unrealistic standards, embrace self-compassion, and cultivate a healthier relationship with success and self-worth.

Juniper Mental Health
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism is not problematic for everyone, but for some, the drive to always do more and be better can have a negative impact on their daily stress, relationships, and take away from the life they want to be living. We have several providers on our team who have authored books and research on this very topic. Reach out to consult with our perfectionism specialists to discuss treatment.

Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
While striving for excellence can be a strength, maladaptive perfectionism often leads to chronic burnout, fear of failure, and debilitating procrastination. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and parts of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help individuals challenge rigid "all-or-nothing" thinking and unrealistic self-imposed standards. Our clinical work focuses on decoupling your self-worth from your achievements, building distress tolerance around mistakes, and cultivating sustainable excellence without the mental exhaustion.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who hold themselves to very high standards and feel the cost of that internally. Perfectionism can look like overworking, difficulty stopping, constant self‑criticism, or a sense that nothing is ever quite enough. It can also look like procrastination, avoidance, or shutting down when something feels too overwhelming or too important to get wrong. Many people I see are highly responsible and often successful on the outside, but feel tense, depleted, or quietly anxious much of the time.
Perfectionism often develops as a way to stay safe, cope with unpredictability, or manage early experiences where being competent, careful, or invisible felt necessary. Over time, these strategies can become exhausting. You may notice that you rarely feel satisfied, that rest feels undeserved, or that you are harder on yourself than anyone else would ever be, even when you are doing your best.
In our work together, we make space for the part of you that strives and the part of you that is tired of striving. Rather than forcing you to “let go” of high standards, we get curious about what perfectionism has been protecting and what it is costing you now. We pay attention to how perfectionism shows up in your body, thoughts, and relationships, and look for ways of relating to yourself that are still responsible and thoughtful but less punishing, so you can experience more ease, satisfaction, and permission to be human in your work, relationships, and inner life. Working with perfectionism is a central part of my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve been working to hold everything together.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Perfectionism isn't about caring too much about quality — it's usually about fear. Fear of failure, of judgment, of being exposed as not enough. It often began as a smart survival strategy in an environment where mistakes felt dangerous. But somewhere along the way, the inner critic that helped you stay safe started running the show, and now nothing you do ever quite feels like enough. I work with perfectionism through IFS — getting to know the parts that drive it with curiosity and compassion, rather than just trying to think your way out of patterns that live much deeper than thought.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I used to joke that I'm a "recovering perfectionist," but trying to recover from it might just be another way of holding ourselves to someone else's standard (of not being "uptight" or "too good" or something). I think the real key is to figure out what our internal compass really wants to point us to. If we were born to pay attention and excel, let's do that in a way that helps us and others thrive, with less shame and stress when we mess up. I'm an Enneagram 1 (I lead with a personality type that can be called "perfectionist" or "idealist"). Maybe you are an Enneagram 1, or a 2 (a people pleaser), or 3 (an achiever). Or maybe you weren't born this way, but your parents pressured you into perfectionism. However perfectionism intersects with your personality, let's find a way to honor its gifts while asking it to rest a bit so other parts of you can also shine.
