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.

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.

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.

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.

Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism often looks like ambition, conscientiousness, or high standards, but underneath it feels like a persistent fear of making mistakes, disappointing others, or never being good enough. You may find it difficult to celebrate accomplishments, set boundaries, or feel satisfied even when you’re doing exceptionally well. It can be extremely isolating when everyone around you thinks you're doing just fine. Together, we’ll explore what drives your perfectionism and work on loosening the grip of self-criticism, so you can continue pursuing meaningful goals without feeling that your worth depends on getting everything right.
