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
Hayden Dover
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Perfectionism often looks like high standards, but underneath it there may be anxiety, self-pressure, fear of mistakes, shame, or difficulty trusting yourself. I work with perfectionism as a pattern that can limit freedom, pleasure, creativity, and connection. Our work focuses on understanding what perfectionism is protecting, how it lives in the body and relationships, and how to build more flexibility, self-acceptance, and alignment with your values.

Perfectionism
Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Perfectionism is a nervous system in a constant state of threat — the brain scanning relentlessly for error, inadequacy, and judgment, driven by hyperactive self-monitoring circuits that never power down.
Neurofeedback quiets this exhausting vigilance by retraining the brain's arousal and self-evaluation networks toward a calmer baseline. Standards don't disappear — but the neurological terror behind them does, replacing driven anxiety with genuine, sustainable motivation.
