Perfectionism
Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Holding yourself to impossible standards usually results in a lot of anxiety and procrastination rather than actual satisfaction. Feeling burned out is sometimes the next level of perfectionism. I help you untangle your worth from your productivity, allowing you to breathe a little easier without losing your drive.

Perfectionism
Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Big changes—starting high school or college, changing schools, moving, or figuring out what comes next—can bring uncertainty, stress, and self-doubt. Even positive transitions can feel overwhelming. I help teens and young adults navigate these shifts with more clarity and confidence, building coping skills, resilience, and a stronger sense of direction so you can move forward feeling more grounded.

Perfectionism
Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I work with many high-achieving, hardworking individuals who often define their identity, worth, and sense of meaning through productivity, performance, and external success. While these strengths can lead to accomplishment and reliability, they can also create pressure, burnout, and a persistent sense of never feeling “enough,” no matter how much is achieved.
Perfectionism often shows up as self-criticism, difficulty resting, fear of failure, people-pleasing, or feeling anxious even during moments of success. Many clients come to me feeling exhausted by their own standards, yet unsure how to slow down or step away from the patterns that have helped them succeed.
In our work together, we explore the deeper roots of perfectionism- often shaped by past experiences, family expectations, or learned beliefs about worth and achievement. At the same time, we focus on practical ways to challenge rigid thinking patterns, reduce anxiety, and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with oneself.
My goal is to help clients begin to separate their identity from their productivity, reconnect with what actually matters to them, and build a life that feels not only successful on the outside, but also grounded, sustainable, and meaningful on the inside.

Perfectionism
Allison Falzone
Therapist, LMSW
Perfectionism often looks like high achievement on the outside while creating significant stress on the inside. Constant overthinking, fear of mistakes, difficulty resting, and feeling like nothing is ever good enough can take a toll on mental health and relationships. I help clients understand the underlying drivers of perfectionism and develop a healthier, more flexible way of relating to themselves.

Perfectionism
Yourdeline Sertyl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Perfectionism often hides beneath achievement. It can drive success while quietly fueling anxiety, self-criticism, and burnout. I help high-achieving adults unpack the roots of perfectionism, shift rigid thought patterns, and develop healthier standards that allow for growth without constant pressure.

Perfectionism
Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism often feels like a shield, but it’s actually a weight that leaves you feeling "less than." When the fear of mistakes becomes paralyzing, my approach helps you identify the "all-or-nothing" stories keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll practice "imperfection" at a manageable pace, shifting the focus from impossible standards to your actual values. By learning to tolerate the discomfort of being human, you’ll gain the freedom to take risks and finally show up as your authentic self.

Perfectionism
Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
In therapy, I help individuals understand the emotional and relational patterns beneath perfectionistic striving, so that they can relate to themselves with greater freedom, flexibility, and self-trust. The aim is not to lower one’s standards, but to loosen the grip of harsh self-demand and make room for a fuller, more livable way of being.

Perfectionism
Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
While aspects of perfectionism have often been helpful for folks to achieve and get to where they are in life, it also has a shadow side rooted in fear of failure, shame, and anxiety. Additionally, our society often reinforces perfectionism in ways that make it difficult from which to un-tangle. Our work will hold the ways it has been helpful while also challenging you to gain comfort with 'good enough' approaches to life.

Perfectionism
Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to get things “just right,” often leading to stress, self-criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied or at ease. In therapy, we’ll look at what drives these patterns and how they’ve taken shape over time. By developing a more flexible, compassionate way of relating to yourself, you can begin to ease the pressure, take healthier risks, and engage with your work and relationships in a way that feels more balanced and sustainable.

Perfectionism
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.

Perfectionism
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.

Perfectionism
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.

Perfectionism
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism often looks like high standards, but it is usually driven by fear of failure, criticism, or not being enough. We can work on loosening the pressure without lowering what you value. The focus is on more flexible thinking, better self-compassion, and the ability to take action without needing everything to be flawless.

Perfectionism
Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
Claudia Blackwell talks about how perfectionism is born out of shame. It's a quote that has stuck with me for years. Perfectionism causes us to feel like we are never good enough, directly attacking our self-worth. Supportive therapy can help us identify the attacks of perfectionism, learn the language of our inner critic, and forge a path forward with self-compassion and self-acceptance.
