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
Julie Cochrane - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist, CCP
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coach, Safe Conversations Facilitator
Perfectionism is not really about high standards. It is about safety. Somewhere along the way, the subconscious decided that being good enough, being beyond criticism or being in complete control was the way to be safe and accepted. That decision then becomes a daily tax: overworking, second-guessing, never quite arriving. RTT goes back to the moment that decision was made and updates the meaning underneath it. The standards can stay. What changes is the price you pay to meet them. Most of my perfectionist clients are women in leadership, founders or creatives. The work is online via Zoom and confidential.

Perfectionism
Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Perfectionism is sneaky; on one hand, it might feel productive to try to find the "best" or "fastest" way to complete certain tasks. On the other hand, perfectionism can create unrealistic or impossible standards for ourselves and those around us. It can feed into anxiety, low-self esteem, procrastination, negative self-talk, or relationship issues. I work with perfectionists as they take a look at the ways these perfectionistic beliefs are no longer serving them, and help them move forward feeling okay with "good enough."
