Perfectionism often looks like high standards on the surface, but underneath can be a fear of failure, criticism, or not being enough. I help you understand the roots of these patterns while gradually loosening their grip. Together, we will work toward a more flexible, self-compassionate way of relating to yourself and your goals. This way you can still be productive but also feel more at peace.

Perfectionism: The High Cost of Being "Flawless"
Moving from Performance to Presence
Perfectionism is often rewarded by society, but internally, it can feel like a relentless taskmaster. It is the persistent whisper that says you are only as good as your last achievement, leading to a life of high-functioning burnout and a profound disconnection from your true self. In my practice, we don’t just "lower your standards"; we investigate the attachment roots of why "being perfect" became your primary strategy for safety and belonging.
The Perfectionist’s Paradox
Perfectionism isn't actually about excellence—it’s about protection. We work together to untangle:
The Procrastination Loop: Addressing the "all-or-nothing" thinking that leads to demand avoidance and paralyzing anxiety when a task feels too important to start.
Rejection Sensitivity: Understanding how the fear of a "flaw" is actually a fear of disconnection. If you aren't perfect, will you still be worthy of love and respect?
The "Shame-Vigilance" Cycle: The exhausting effort of "masking" your struggles to maintain a composed exterior, leading to a systemic shut down.
A Systems-Rooted Clinical Approach
With over 20 years of experience, I use a deep-reaching framework to help you trade "perfection" for "wholeness":
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "Perfectionist Part" of your system. This part likely took on its job very early to protect you from criticism or instability. We work to help this part feel safe enough to finally rest.
EMDR for Performance Anxiety: We use EMDR to process past memories of "failure" or moments where your worth was tied to your performance, neutralizing the triggers that fuel today's perfectionism.
Somatic Regulation: We learn to recognize the physical tension of "trying too hard" and use grounding tools to expand your Window of Tolerance, allowing you to be present even when things are messy.
For the "Professional" Perfectionists
As someone who works extensively with therapists, pastors, and professors, I understand the unique pressure of having to be a "model" of wellness or wisdom. I provide a confidential, courageous space where you can drop the "expert" mask and explore the messy, beautiful reality of being human.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Perfectionism is not really about high standards. It is about safety. Somewhere along the way, the subconscious decided that being good enough, being beyond criticism or being in complete control was the way to be safe and accepted. That decision then becomes a daily tax: overworking, second-guessing, never quite arriving. RTT goes back to the moment that decision was made and updates the meaning underneath it. The standards can stay. What changes is the price you pay to meet them. Most of my perfectionist clients are women in leadership, founders or creatives. The work is online via Zoom and confidential.

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.

Melena Ayres
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S, LCDC
Perfectionism can look like high standards on the outside—but on the inside, it often feels like pressure, fear of failure, and never feeling “good enough.” It can keep us stuck, burned out, or constantly second-guessing ourselves. I help clients move away from rigid expectations and toward self-compassion, flexibility, and a healthier, more sustainable way of showing up in their lives. We oftentimes notice a remarkable improvement in our relationship with ourselves and with others as we heal our perfectionism.

David J Schlosz
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC-S
Perfectionism is often driven not by high standards alone, but by fear of failure, shame, rejection, or feeling “not enough.” While perfectionism may create achievement, it frequently comes at the cost of peace, self-worth, connection, and emotional freedom. Therapy helps clients explore the deeper roots of perfectionism while learning how to relate to themselves with greater compassion and flexibility.

Jonathan Hock -- Men's Work
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism in men often reflects a deeper struggle with control, expectation, and the desire to prove worth. It can drive relentless effort while quietly limiting fulfillment, connection, and authenticity. I work with men to explore the fears and beliefs that fuel perfectionism and how it shapes daily life and choices. The goal is not to eliminate striving, but to bring awareness and intention to it so effort aligns with purpose rather than anxiety, allowing men to engage with life more fully and freely.

Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
Folks who struggle with perfectionism and intellectualization tend to represent a high-percentage of my practice. In my experience, people who struggle with perfectionism may have parts that deny they’re a perfectionist—I mean, everybody has to have a standard, right? I love helping folks deepen their understanding of these standards which seem "mission critical,” but may actually be inhibiting happiness and growth.
