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.

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.

Julia Poole
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C, ADHD-CCSP,
When your standards are high, even a good day can end with a list of things you think you should have done better. We’ll look at where that pressure comes from, what it costs you, and how to make room for progress without feeling like you have to earn your rest or prove your worth.

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.

Jessica Cronk
Licensed Professional Counselor, LAC
Perfectionism often looks like achievement from the outside, but internally it can create anxiety, self-criticism, burnout, and a persistent feeling that nothing is ever quite good enough. I help clients understand the beliefs and fears that fuel perfectionism while developing healthier ways of pursuing excellence without sacrificing well-being. Using evidence-based approaches such as CBT and ACT, we work to challenge rigid standards, build self-trust, and create a more sustainable relationship with achievement and success.
