Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Perfectionism in high-achievement culture is often mistaken for a strength — and for a while, it is. But for the men I work with, perfectionism has become a relentless internal critic that raises the standard the moment the last one is met, makes rest feel dangerous, and turns every imperfection into evidence of inadequacy. Through Character Driven Therapy, I help high-performing men understand where their perfectionism originated, what it's been protecting them from, and how to pursue excellence without being tyrannized by it — because the goal is not to lower your standards, it's to stop letting your standards determine your worth.

Valentina Verani, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Perfectionism often disguises itself as high standards, but beneath it is usually fear—fear of making a mistake, being judged, or not being enough. It can leave you overthinking, procrastinating, and waiting for the "right" time, the perfect plan, or one more revision before taking action. The truth is, there is rarely a perfect moment. Waiting for certainty can keep you from the very opportunities that help you grow.
Together, we'll explore the beliefs that fuel perfectionism, learn to quiet your inner critic, and build the confidence to move forward before everything feels perfectly in place. Growth isn't found in getting everything right—it's found in having the courage to begin.

Max Marrone
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
Perfectionism can feel like an exhausting inner battle. One part wants to let go while another pushes for certainty and "100%". Often times this can stem from past stressful situations and/or complex trauma. I use a combination of EMDR, DBT, ERP and attachment informed therapy to support people with identifying and working through the deeper issues driving perfectionism.

Eilis Quinn
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT, R-DMT
If you are struggling with perfectionism, I provide a compassionate, supportive space where we can explore the patterns that keep you stuck and develop tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and self-acceptance. As a former competitive dancer, I understand the pressure and self-doubt needing to be perfect creates. Together, we'll work toward finding balance, resilience, and a more fulfilling way of relating to yourself and your goals.
