San Francisco, California therapist: Sarah Jane Thomas, marriage and family therapist
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.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Heidi Hartston, psychologist
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.

San Luis Obispo, California therapist: Liza Roth, MA, LMFT, marriage and family therapist
Perfectionism

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Perfectionism isn't about doing things perfectly, it's about finding fault easily. Somewhere along the way, you came to believe that if you did things perfectly, you would be safe and free from worry. Instead, you are still full of worry and are just plain exhausted. Let's work together to figure out how perfectionism serves you, how it doesn't, and how you can find balance and inner peace.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Amber McKinney-Morgan, licensed clinical social worker
Perfectionism

Amber McKinney-Morgan

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside but often feels like pressure, self-criticism, and never feeling “enough.” I help clients understand the roots of perfectionism and develop more flexible, compassionate ways of relating to themselves. The goal is to maintain excellence without sacrificing your well-being.

Perfectionism

Diane Hough, LMFT — Integrative Therapy for Relationships & Life Transitions

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Perfectionism can look like competence and high achievement from the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. If you're constantly evaluating yourself or feeling that what you do is never quite enough, therapy can help you soften the inner pressure and develop greater self-trust and ease.
