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.

I utilize the latest research-backed information and therapy techniques to assist adolescents and adults with the challenges experienced with perfectionism, including but not limited to behavior rehearsal, cognitive reframing, coping strategies, assertiveness, communications skills, crisis resolution, emotional containment, homework, interpersonal skills, problem solving, stress reduction, and recommended reading, all within a cognitive-behavioral therapeutic framework

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.

Louisville's therapy community is shaped by the city's dual identity as a major healthcare hub — anchored by the University of Louisville Health system, Norton Healthcare, and Baptist Health — and a culturally rich city with deep roots in bourbon, thoroughbred racing, and Southern Midwestern community values. The Muhammad Ali Center and the city's civil rights heritage sustain meaningful conversations about racial identity, community resilience, and systemic inequity in clinical work. The University of Louisville's department of psychological and brain sciences provides important training resources for the local therapy community. Louisville's positioning at the intersection of Appalachian influence, Southern tradition, and Midwestern pragmatism shapes a therapy culture where direct, accessible, and often spiritually informed approaches find the broadest acceptance.
