Perfectionism
Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism can fuel achievement, persistence, and attention to detail, and it is often rewarded in demanding academic and professional environments. Over time, however, unrelenting standards, fear of mistakes, overwork, self-criticism, or tying your worth to your performance can become exhausting and unsustainable. A setback, transition, increased responsibility, or period of burnout may eventually make it impossible to keep meeting the expectations you have set for yourself. When strategies that once helped you succeed stop working, it can feel as though your competence, identity, or life is beginning to unravel.
Working on perfectionism does not mean giving up ambition or settling for less. Therapy can help you understand what drives your perfectionism, distinguish meaningful striving from fear-based pressure, develop more flexible expectations, and respond to mistakes or limitations with greater perspective and self-compassion. The goal is to help you pursue excellence in ways that are healthier, more sustainable, and less dependent on relentless self-criticism.

Perfectionism
Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Big changes—starting high school or college, changing schools, moving, or figuring out what comes next—can bring uncertainty, stress, and self-doubt. Even positive transitions can feel overwhelming. I help teens and young adults navigate these shifts with more clarity and confidence, building coping skills, resilience, and a stronger sense of direction so you can move forward feeling more grounded.
