Perfectionism
Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Perfectionism isn't actually about having high standards – it's about never feeling good enough no matter what you achieve. You set impossible bars, beat yourself up when you inevitably fall short, and exhaust yourself trying to control outcomes that aren't fully controllable. You might procrastinate because if you can't do something perfectly, why start? Or you might over-prepare to the point of diminishing returns, triple-checking work that was fine three versions ago. The anxiety underneath perfectionism is relentless: the fear of being exposed as inadequate, the worry that one mistake will unravel everything, the belief that your worth depends on flawless performance. I work with clients to understand where perfectionism took root (often it developed as a survival strategy in childhood), distinguish between healthy striving and self-punishing standards, and learn to tolerate the discomfort of "good enough." We'll explore what you're actually afraid will happen if you're not perfect, practice self-compassion when you mess up, and build tolerance for the vulnerability of being imperfect and still worthy. The goal isn't lowering your standards – it's unhooking your self-worth from impossible ones.

Karen Hahn, Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, LCSW-C
I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism, helping them understand the thoughts and pressures that drive it. Together, we explore ways to manage self-criticism, set realistic expectations, and build self-compassion so they can feel more balanced, confident, and fulfilled.

Perfectionism
Dr. Jana Rundle
Psychologist, Psy.D., PMH-C
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to do everything “right,” leaving many women feeling anxious, self-critical, and exhausted from trying to meet impossible standards. This often shows up for high-achieving women who are used to performing at a high level, as well as for mothers who feel an intense pressure to be the “perfect” parent. You may find yourself overthinking decisions, feeling guilty when you fall short of your own expectations, or struggling to relax because it feels like there is always more you should be doing. In therapy, we explore the patterns and beliefs that drive perfectionism and work toward developing a more balanced and compassionate way of relating to yourself. My work focuses on helping high-achieving women and mothers loosen the grip of perfectionism, manage anxiety and self-criticism, and move through life with greater flexibility, confidence, and self-trust.

Perfectionism
Juniper Mental Health
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism is not problematic for everyone, but for some, the drive to always do more and be better can have a negative impact on their daily stress, relationships, and take away from the life they want to be living. We have several providers on our team who have authored books and research on this very topic. Reach out to consult with our perfectionism specialists to discuss treatment.
