Perfectionism
Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Unhealed core wounds can instigate an anxiety-driven "perfection plan" for happiness that you hope will compensate for your deepest fears about yourself. Negative core wound identities sound like this: I am not good enough. I am not important. I am flawed. I am not worthy. I am not valued. I don’t deserve love. I am not acceptable the way I am. I am too different. I don’t belong. I am not worthy of love. I am a burden. I am weird. I am a loser. I am not wanted. I am inadequate. I am powerless. I am unlovable. I am alone.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.

Perfectionism
Be The Change Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Perfectionism can create intense pressure, self-criticism, fear of failure, anxiety, and difficulty feeling “good enough.” Individuals may struggle with burnout, avoidance, overthinking, or unrealistic expectations for themselves. Therapy can help clients challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build self-compassion, and develop healthier ways of approaching goals and expectations.

Perfectionism
Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Perfectionism isn't actually about having high standards – it's about never feeling good enough no matter what you achieve. You set impossible bars, beat yourself up when you inevitably fall short, and exhaust yourself trying to control outcomes that aren't fully controllable. You might procrastinate because if you can't do something perfectly, why start? Or you might over-prepare to the point of diminishing returns, triple-checking work that was fine three versions ago. The anxiety underneath perfectionism is relentless: the fear of being exposed as inadequate, the worry that one mistake will unravel everything, the belief that your worth depends on flawless performance. I work with clients to understand where perfectionism took root (often it developed as a survival strategy in childhood), distinguish between healthy striving and self-punishing standards, and learn to tolerate the discomfort of "good enough." We'll explore what you're actually afraid will happen if you're not perfect, practice self-compassion when you mess up, and build tolerance for the vulnerability of being imperfect and still worthy. The goal isn't lowering your standards – it's unhooking your self-worth from impossible ones.
