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.

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.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Perfectionism is not about high standards. It is about self-worth becoming dependent on performance, productivity, and getting things “right.” It often leads to burnout, procrastination, and a constant feeling of never doing enough.
Our work focuses on breaking the cycle of overperformance and self-pressure, helping you build a more sustainable way of functioning that does not require constant self-sacrifice.

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.

Greg Rico
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
Procrastination, burn-out, and defeatist thinking are often the results of seeking perfection. Emotionally seeking perfection can be the result of fear of being less than, not good enough, all-or-nothing mindset. These elements can have an impact on your self-worth which can affect self-confidence and relationships. Our work will include self-compassion, realistic goal setting and developing a growth mindset.

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.

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.

Nicole Zembery
Pre-Licensed Professional, LPC-Associate
Perfectionism can look like high standards on the outside, but internally it often feels like constant pressure, fear of failure, and never feeling “good enough.” It can be exhausting trying to keep up. Together, we’ll work on quieting that inner critic, building self-compassion, and helping you find a healthier balance where you can still strive for growth without burning yourself out.
