Mira Cymerman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism can be exhausting. It is easy to mistake for having high standards, but it is often an inner voice telling you that nothing is ever quite good enough, no matter how hard you try. During our sessions, we can explore where that voice came from, and why it thinks it is protecting you from judgement, failure, or fear. Together, we can discuss separating your sense of self-worth from your achievements, and accepting mistakes with compassion.

Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
Perfectionism can look like high achievement from the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. If your self-worth has become tied to productivity, achievement, or getting things exactly right, therapy can help you understand where these expectations come from and loosen their hold. We can work toward greater self-compassion, flexibility, and a sense of worth that does not depend on constant performance.

Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism often looks like ambition, conscientiousness, or high standards, but underneath it feels like a persistent fear of making mistakes, disappointing others, or never being good enough. You may find it difficult to celebrate accomplishments, set boundaries, or feel satisfied even when you’re doing exceptionally well. It can be extremely isolating when everyone around you thinks you're doing just fine. Together, we’ll explore what drives your perfectionism and work on loosening the grip of self-criticism, so you can continue pursuing meaningful goals without feeling that your worth depends on getting everything right.
