Perfectionism
Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When new stressors arise, they can activate old patterns like perfectionism that make it hard to cope in a healthy way. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening today while also working to understand how the past is contributing to present symptoms. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can learn techniques to reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Perfectionism
Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
If you hold yourself to very high standards yet rarely feel satisfied with your efforts, perfectionism may be driving constant pressure beneath the surface. While striving for excellence can be a strength, perfectionism often brings self-criticism, worry about mistakes, and difficulty slowing down. Therapy focuses on understanding these patterns and developing healthier ways to pursue high standards without the chronic strain.

Perfectionism
Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism often develops as an understandable way of coping rather than simply setting high standards. Together, we'll explore the experiences that shaped these patterns, reduce harsh self-criticism, and help you build a healthier relationship with achievement, mistakes, and self-worth.

Perfectionism
Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
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.
