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
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism often looks like high standards, but it is usually driven by fear of failure, criticism, or not being enough. We can work on loosening the pressure without lowering what you value. The focus is on more flexible thinking, better self-compassion, and the ability to take action without needing everything to be flawless.

Perfectionism
Mira Cymerman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism can be exhausting. It is easy to mistake for having high standards, but it is often an inner voice telling you that nothing is ever quite good enough, no matter how hard you try. During our sessions, we can explore where that voice came from, and why it thinks it is protecting you from judgement, failure, or fear. Together, we can discuss separating your sense of self-worth from your achievements, and accepting mistakes with compassion.

Perfectionism
Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism can be exhausting. The pressure to do everything exactly right, meet impossibly high standards, or avoid making mistakes can leave you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite good enough. In therapy, I help clients understand the beliefs and fears that drive perfectionism, while developing a more flexible and compassionate relationship with themselves. Together, we work on challenging all-or-nothing thinking, reducing self-criticism, and learning to tolerate uncertainty and mistakes without feeling that everything is at risk. Treatment may also include practical strategies for managing procrastination, overthinking, and the difficulty of feeling satisfied with accomplishments. The goal is not to give up your ambition or high standards, but to help you pursue what matters to you without being controlled by the need to be perfect.
