Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

Juniper Mental Health
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism is not problematic for everyone, but for some, the drive to always do more and be better can have a negative impact on their daily stress, relationships, and take away from the life they want to be living. We have several providers on our team who have authored books and research on this very topic. Reach out to consult with our perfectionism specialists to discuss treatment.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I used to joke that I'm a "recovering perfectionist," but trying to recover from it might just be another way of holding ourselves to someone else's standard (of not being "uptight" or "too good" or something). I think the real key is to figure out what our internal compass really wants to point us to. If we were born to pay attention and excel, let's do that in a way that helps us and others thrive, with less shame and stress when we mess up. I'm an Enneagram 1 (I lead with a personality type that can be called "perfectionist" or "idealist"). Maybe you are an Enneagram 1, or a 2 (a people pleaser), or 3 (an achiever). Or maybe you weren't born this way, but your parents pressured you into perfectionism. However perfectionism intersects with your personality, let's find a way to honor its gifts while asking it to rest a bit so other parts of you can also shine.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients who hold themselves to extremely high standards and struggle with self-criticism, overthinking, procrastination, and difficulty feeling satisfied. Perfectionism can look like ambition from the outside, but internally it often creates anxiety, pressure, and fear of making mistakes. In therapy, we work on building self-trust, reducing all-or-nothing thinking, improving follow-through, and creating a healthier relationship with achievement. My goal is to help clients pursue excellence without being driven by constant fear or inadequacy.
