Perfectionism
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
What begins as a drive to do well can gradually become an unforgiving way of measuring one's worth. Therapy offers a place to understand where those demands came from and why mistakes, disappointment, or falling short can feel so, so threatening. As that pressure becomes more understandable, perfection no longer has to do so much psychological work, and you can create more room to be ambitious without being governed by self-criticism.

Perfectionism
Brittany Ryan-Berzins
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism can look like ambition, discipline, and high standards, yet beneath the surface it can be accompanied by self-doubt, anxiety, and the persistent feeling that you are never quite doing enough. My approach is grounded in compassion, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy, helping clients understand the beliefs and patterns that keep perfectionism in place while developing a kinder and more balanced relationship with themselves. Together, we explore the fear of mistakes, the need for control, and the tendency to measure self-worth through achievement or external validation. Rather than asking you to give up your aspirations, we work toward pursuing what matters with greater flexibility and freedom. Through increased self-awareness, self-compassion, and practical behavioral change, clients can learn to tolerate imperfection, quiet the inner critic, and experience a sense of accomplishment without constantly moving the goalposts. The goal is not to become less driven, but to be able to strive, grow, and succeed without sacrificing your well-being in the process.

Perfectionism
Yourdeline Sertyl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Perfectionism often hides beneath achievement. It can drive success while quietly fueling anxiety, self-criticism, and burnout. I help high-achieving adults unpack the roots of perfectionism, shift rigid thought patterns, and develop healthier standards that allow for growth without constant pressure.

Perfectionism
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.
