Perfectionism
Michele Robison, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Individuals who struggle with perfectionism typically experience anxiety. I help my clients not only learn what drives their perfectionism, but I help them learn how to free themselves from the beliefs that drive their perfectionism utilizing CBT and when appropriate, EMDR.

Perfectionism
Dan Safavi
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-22108
Perfectionism can look like high standards, overthinking, procrastination, fear of mistakes, or never feeling satisfied with what you accomplish. I help clients loosen rigid expectations, become more comfortable with imperfection and uncertainty, and pursue excellence without being controlled by constant self-pressure.

Perfectionism
Tara McGrath
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You may not identify as a "perfectionist" because you're not doing things perfectly. In reality, people who struggle with perfectionism feel like they're never performing well enough, and they can always find the flaws in everything they do. These tendencies can also with correlate with procrastination. I work with people to improve their self-compassion and self-worth to allow for excellence instead of unrealistic perfection.

Perfectionism
Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many people don’t realize that perfectionism isn’t about doing things perfectly—it’s about feeling like anything less than what they had in their minds is unacceptable. This mindset often creates constant self‑criticism, pressure, and a sense that nothing is ever “good enough,” even when you’re working incredibly hard. I help clients notice these patterns with compassion and begin shifting toward a more grounded, accepting way of relating to themselves.

Perfectionism
Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I think of myself as a “recovering perfectionist” and would be glad to support you in your own journey toward greater self-acceptance. I find that empathy and validation are important starting points, alongside developing self-compassion and a kinder relationship with yourself. Depending on your needs, we might explore patterns in your inner dialogue, develop practical coping skills, or practice mindfulness and self-compassion more intentionally. My hope is to help you embrace yourself as a perfectly imperfect human, with room to grow without needing to get everything right.
