Perfectionism
Devon Davasher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCM, CFSW, Master ART Practitioner
I help adults who feel trapped by pressure, overthinking, self-criticism, and the constant sense that nothing they do is ever good enough. Therapy can help you loosen rigid standards, reduce shame, and build a healthier way of relating to yourself, your work, and your goals.

Perfectionism
Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism often develops as an understandable way of coping rather than simply setting high standards. Together, we'll explore the experiences that shaped these patterns, reduce harsh self-criticism, and help you build a healthier relationship with achievement, mistakes, and self-worth.

Perfectionism
Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Perfectionism can look like high standards and achievement on the outside, but internally it often feels like constant pressure, self-criticism, and fear of making mistakes. You may struggle to feel satisfied with your accomplishments or find that your self-worth rises and falls with performance. In therapy, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you challenge rigid thinking patterns, reduce harsh self-talk, and develop a more flexible, values-driven definition of success. Our work focuses on maintaining excellence without sacrificing your well-being, relationships, or sense of self.

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
Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
If you hold yourself to very high standards yet rarely feel satisfied with your efforts, perfectionism may be driving constant pressure beneath the surface. While striving for excellence can be a strength, perfectionism often brings self-criticism, worry about mistakes, and difficulty slowing down. Therapy focuses on understanding these patterns and developing healthier ways to pursue high standards without the chronic strain.
