Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CBC
Perfectionism is often a survival strategy—a way to shield ourselves from criticism, failure, or a deep-seated feeling of not being enough. However, the relentless pursuit of an impossible standard inevitably leads to chronic burnout and paralysis. I help you explore the underlying fears driving the need for control. Together, we will work to replace harsh self-imposed rules with flexible boundaries, practicing self-compassion while preserving your natural drive and dedication.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism can be exhausting. The pressure to do everything exactly right, meet impossibly high standards, or avoid making mistakes can leave you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite good enough. In therapy, I help clients understand the beliefs and fears that drive perfectionism, while developing a more flexible and compassionate relationship with themselves. Together, we work on challenging all-or-nothing thinking, reducing self-criticism, and learning to tolerate uncertainty and mistakes without feeling that everything is at risk. Treatment may also include practical strategies for managing procrastination, overthinking, and the difficulty of feeling satisfied with accomplishments. The goal is not to give up your ambition or high standards, but to help you pursue what matters to you without being controlled by the need to be perfect.

Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
Perfectionism usually isn't about high standards - it's about safety. I help you understand where the need to get everything right came from, what it's protecting you from feeling, and what becomes possible when you're not constantly proving your worth through performance.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.
