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.

MaVie Behavioral Health
Counselor/Therapist, MD, PMHNP, PA-C, NP, LISAC, PRSS
Perfectionism
At MaVie Behavioral Health, we know that striving for perfection often leads to overwhelming pressure, harsh self-criticism, and constant anxiety over making mistakes. When the need to get everything "right" becomes exhausting, it can cause burnout, procrastination, or resorting to substances like opioids, Kratom, or 7-OH just to turn off a racing mind. Through 100% virtual counseling, our master’s-level counselors help you break free from all-or-nothing thinking, silence your internal critic, and cultivate self-compassion. We provide practical behavioral strategies to help you let go of unrealistic standards, lower your stress, and find real balance—all from the comfort of home.

Amy Faragher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, NCC
Perfectionism isn't just a bad habit, it was something that you learned was necessary at some point in your life. I work with clients to help them understand the root causes of their perfectionism. I help clients resolve any negative beliefs that have about themselves such as "I'm not good enough" or "I am unlovable" that may be contributing to their perfectionistic tendencies.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Perfectionism often looks successful from the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. You may set incredibly high standards for yourself, struggle with mistakes, overthink decisions, or feel that what you accomplish is never quite enough. Therapy can help you loosen these patterns without giving up the ambition and values that are important to you.

Boise is Idaho's capital and largest city, driven in large part by migration from California and other western states attracted by lower housing costs and an outdoor recreation lifestyle, and the rapid population influx has created both a growing demand for therapy and the particular mental health challenges of a community in rapid, sometimes disorienting, transformation. The city has historically had a limited private therapy infrastructure relative to its size, but that is changing quickly as the population grows and the community's demographics shift toward a younger and more professionally diverse resident base. Boise State University's counseling center serves the significant student population, and St. Luke's and Saint Alphonsus health systems provide behavioral health services. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, relocation and transition stress, relationship difficulties, and the identity questions that arise in a city figuring out what kind of place it wants to be as it grows rapidly.
