Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside but often feels like pressure, self-criticism, and never feeling “enough.” I help clients understand the roots of perfectionism and develop more flexible, compassionate ways of relating to themselves. The goal is to maintain excellence without sacrificing your well-being.

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.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism can create a persistent sense of pressure to meet unrealistic expectations, often accompanied by self-criticism, anxiety, shame, and a fear of failure or disappointing others. While striving for excellence can be meaningful, perfectionism can interfere with our ability to experience satisfaction, authenticity, and genuine connection with others. I help individuals explore the underlying beliefs, experiences, and relational patterns that contribute to perfectionistic tendencies. Together, we examine how self-worth may become tied to achievement, approval, or control while developing greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and acceptance of our human limitations. My goal is to help clients move beyond rigid expectations toward a more balanced, authentic, and fulfilling way of living that allows room for growth, vulnerability, and imperfection.
