Perfectionism
Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Perfectionism is rarely about excellence alone. It often develops when achievement, control, or being beyond criticism becomes tied to safety, worth, belonging, or protection from shame. What may appear as discipline can quietly produce procrastination, overworking, indecision, self-criticism, and an inability to feel satisfied even after success. Therapy explores what imperfection has come to mean, separates healthy ambition from fear-driven performance, and builds the capacity to take risks, make mistakes, and remain worthy without continually proving it.

Perfectionism
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
What begins as wanting to do well can become a relentless way of measuring your worth, leaving little room to enjoy success or forgive mistakes. Therapy gives us a place to understand where those demands came from and why easing up can feel so threatening. As that pressure becomes more understandable, you can begin to pursue your ambitions with more satisfaction and less fear of what falling short would mean about you.

Perfectionism
Melanie Simms
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I believe that self-compassion is the antidote for perfectionism. I work with clients to heal from early traumatic experiences that may have led to the development of perfectionism as a coping mechanism. I help clients develop their overall feeling of self-worth and treat themselves with greater compassion to reduce perfectionistic tendencies.

Perfectionism
Anna Schick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Setting high standards for yourself, feeling like nothing you do is ever quite good enough, or constantly worrying about making mistakes can be exhausting. You may find yourself overthinking decisions, being overly critical of yourself, or struggling to relax without feeling guilty. Even when you're successful, it can be difficult to feel satisfied or recognize your accomplishments. Therapy offers a space to explore where these expectations come from, how they affect your relationships and sense of self, and why it can feel so difficult to let go of control. Together, we can work toward developing greater self-acceptance, easing the pressure you place on yourself, and finding a healthier balance between striving for success and feeling good about who you are.
