Perfectionism
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.

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
Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards — it's almost always about fear. Fear of failure, rejection, not being enough. At Restored, we help clients trace perfectionism back to its roots, addressing the subconscious beliefs that drive it and the toll it takes on mental health, relationships, and quality of life. The goal isn't lowering your standards — it's freeing you from the relentless pressure that's been quietly running your life.

Perfectionism
Desert to Peaks Psychology
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Our approach to working with perfectionism is compassionate, insight-driven, and practical. Perfectionism often develops as a strategy for achieving, gaining approval, or protecting against failure, and it can coexist with high ambition and success. Together, we explore the underlying fears, standards, and self-beliefs that fuel the pressure, while separating healthy striving from patterns that lead to burnout, anxiety, or self-criticism. Sessions may focus on helping you build more flexible thinking, strengthen self-compassion, and redefine worth beyond productivity or performance. Through evidence-based tools and thoughtful challenge, your therapist will help you work toward maintaining excellence without sacrificing well-being.

Perfectionism
Jocelyn Jarman
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards. Beneath the relentless striving, the self-criticism, the difficulty delegating, the fear of starting things you might not finish perfectly, and the exhausting internal commentary that follows you through every task and decision — there is almost always something much more tender: a deep and often old belief that your worth is conditional. That love, belonging, and safety must be earned through performance. That who you are, separate from what you achieve, is somehow not quite enough. Perfectionism can look like success from the outside — and often is accompanied by real accomplishment — but on the inside it tends to feel like a treadmill that never stops, where nothing you do quite measures up and rest feels dangerous. It shows up in the student who shuts down rather than risk getting something wrong, the professional who works twice as hard as everyone around them and still feels like a fraud, the parent who holds themselves to an impossible standard and quietly passes that anxiety on to their children, and the person who has wanted to try something new for years but cannot bear the thought of being a beginner. At Deserts Bloom Therapy, perfectionism is explored with both curiosity and compassion — because underneath it is not a character flaw but a deeply human attempt to feel safe and loved. Using CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches, the work gently untangles the beliefs that keep perfectionism in place, builds a more grounded and self-compassionate relationship with your own humanity, and creates space for you to discover what it might feel like to be enough — not when you finally get everything right, but right now, exactly as you are.
