Perfectionism often presents as high standards, but underneath it is fear, pressure, and self-criticism. I specialize in helping clients understand the roots of perfectionism and how it contributes to anxiety, burnout, and avoidance. Using structured, evidence-based approaches, we work on developing more flexible thinking and healthier ways of striving.

Headline: When "Doing it All" Still Feels Like Falling Behind
The Burden of Being "The Best"
To the world, you have it together. You are the high-achiever, the reliable one, the one who doesn't miss a detail. But internally, the "inner critic" is never satisfied. Whether it’s at work, in your relationships, or in your own self-image, you feel like you are one mistake away from being "exposed." This relentless drive for perfection isn't just a habit—it’s a survival strategy that has left you burnt out and disconnected.
My Approach: From Performance to Presence
In my private-pay practice, we don't just "talk" about your stress. We work to dismantle the rigid rules that keep you stuck. I help high-achieving perfectionists move from a life of constant performance to one of authentic presence. Using an integrated approach, we will:
Neutralize the Inner Critic: Learn to hear the perfectionist voice without letting it drive your decisions.
Embrace "Good Enough": Build the psychological flexibility to prioritize your well-being over an impossible standard.
Reconnect with Values: Pivot your energy away from external validation and toward the things that actually bring you fulfillment.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Many of my clients have extremely high standards for themselves and base their self-worth on their ability to meet those standards. Usually perfectionism works to a certain point in their life - until it doesn't. On the inside, it can feel like nothing is ever quite good enough, rest feels unearned, and perfectionists can feel like they're one mistake away from a total meltdown. I help high-achievers loosen perfectionism's grip without losing their edge. I help performers work to be ambitious and at peace with themselves. To strive in a healthy way, and still feel like enough.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
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.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to get things “just right,” often leading to stress, self-criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied or at ease. In therapy, we’ll look at what drives these patterns and how they’ve taken shape over time. By developing a more flexible, compassionate way of relating to yourself, you can begin to ease the pressure, take healthier risks, and engage with your work and relationships in a way that feels more balanced and sustainable.
