Perfectionism
Advent Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
The compulsion to get everything right is both exhausting and spiritually corrosive. Perfectionism frequently presents as high standards while quietly robbing you of joy, straining your relationships, and distorting your understanding of God's grace. Together we will examine its roots, challenge the falsehoods that sustain it, and help you come to rest in the truth that you are God's workmanship — not because you are perfect, but because you are His.

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.

Perfectionism
Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Therapy can help you navigate the traps related to perfectionism, including procrastination, self-criticism, fear of failure, imposter syndrome, overthinking and fear of falling short. We can work to quiet the inner critic, address black and white thinking in evaluating yourself and your work, and find purpose driven motivation (rather than fear driven). Shifting your inner conversation can result in great relief and can unlock your creativity, reinvigorate your interest and have you feeling proud of your work and your skillset. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from self-sabotaging patterns, and help you to build the balanced, happy life you deserve.

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
Sarah Jane Thomas
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Perfectionism keeps you stuck in all-or-nothing thinking, where everything has to be perfect or it feels like a total failure. This mindset makes it really hard to exist in the grey area where life actually happens. We will explore where those rigid standards came from and practice getting comfortable with the messiness of being human instead of striving for unattainable perfection. Our work is about reminding you that you matter even when you are not producing, achieving, or grinding your way through the day.
