Perfectionism
Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
Claudia Blackwell talks about how perfectionism is born out of shame. It's a quote that has stuck with me for years. Perfectionism causes us to feel like we are never good enough, directly attacking our self-worth. Supportive therapy can help us identify the attacks of perfectionism, learn the language of our inner critic, and forge a path forward with self-compassion and self-acceptance.

Perfectionism
Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in perfectionism.
Perfectionism is rarely about wanting to do well. By the time people reach me it has usually become a source of paralysis rather than achievement: work put off because it has to be flawless, projects rewritten past the point of improvement, exhaustion from standards that rise as soon as you meet them, and self-criticism that arrives instantly and stays. The praise, when it comes, does not land.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we take up what perfection has been protecting against. It carries an unconscious logic worth understanding, generally rooted in fear, shame, or a story about what you must be in order to be acceptable. In sessions we follow that story to where it started. As it becomes visible as something learned, it tends to loosen its grip on ordinary tasks.
If perfectionism has begun costing you more than it returns, I would be glad to talk.

Perfectionism
Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism by helping them understand the patterns of high self-criticism, fear of mistakes, and pressure to meet unrealistic standards. Perfectionism often leads to procrastination, burnout, and difficulty feeling satisfied, even when you are doing well. In therapy, we focus on challenging rigid thinking patterns, building flexibility, and developing a more balanced and compassionate approach to achievement. I use CBT and ACT-based strategies to address unhelpful beliefs, reduce the impact of self-critical thoughts, and support you in taking action without being held back by the need to be perfect.

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.
