Perfectionism
Dr. Teresa Huff-Pomstra
Psychologist, PhD, LP
As the adage goes, striving for the best can be an enemy of the good and leave you stuck spinning in trying to be so perfect that you go nowhere. We will explore the roots of perfectionist thinking and see where you may be hanging onto unhelpful and unrealistic expectations of self and others. Challenging and forming new beliefs can help you develop realistic goals and move from stuck to soaring!

Perfectionism
Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
Working with perfectionism isn’t about lowering the bar—it’s about changing your relationship with it.
We start by identifying the fear underneath it (usually failure, judgment, or not being enough). Then we look at the patterns it creates—overthinking, procrastination, avoidance—and how they’re actually keeping you stuck.

Perfectionism
Lisa Botticelli
Psychologist, Ph.D., PMH-C, c-DBT
Together we'll look at the ways in which perfectionism may lead to maladaptive or problematic behaviors, or otherwise take you away from your core goals and values. We'll focus on compassion and accountability, rather than meeting an impossible standard.

Perfectionism
Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
Perfectionistic striving can leave little room to rest, feel satisfied, or meet yourself with understanding when something goes wrong. In therapy, we explore the emotional and relational patterns beneath these demands and the meanings carried by success, failure, and being seen. The work supports greater flexibility and self-trust, allowing your standards to become part of a fuller, more livable relationship to yourself.

Perfectionism
Heinig Health and Wellness Counseling
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide psychotherapy for individuals struggling with perfectionism, helping clients understand how high self-imposed standards, fear of failure, and self-criticism can impact emotional well-being and daily functioning. Our approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns, reducing all-or-nothing thinking, and developing more balanced and compassionate self-evaluations. Through evidence-based strategies, clients learn to tolerate mistakes, set realistic goals, and build flexibility in their expectations. Treatment supports greater self-acceptance, reduced anxiety and burnout, and a healthier, more sustainable approach to achievement and personal growth.
