Kisha Winston-Watkins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C, MBA
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to perform, achieve, or “get it right,” often leaving individuals feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or never fully satisfied. Many people believe they must meet unrealistic standards to be worthy, successful, or accepted — and when those standards aren’t met, it can lead to self‑criticism, burnout, and emotional exhaustion.
In my practice, I help individuals understand where these patterns come from and how perfectionism impacts their daily lives, relationships, and overall well‑being. Together, we work to challenge rigid expectations, build healthier self‑beliefs, and create space for balance, confidence, and self‑compassion. My goal is to help you release the pressure of “always being perfect” and embrace a more grounded, authentic way of living.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Perfectionism can look like high standards and achievement on the outside, but internally it often feels like constant pressure, self-criticism, and fear of making mistakes. You may struggle to feel satisfied with your accomplishments or find that your self-worth rises and falls with performance. In therapy, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you challenge rigid thinking patterns, reduce harsh self-talk, and develop a more flexible, values-driven definition of success. Our work focuses on maintaining excellence without sacrificing your well-being, relationships, or sense of self.
