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.

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Perfectionism often looks like high standards from the outside while feeling like relentless pressure on the inside. It can show up as overthinking, procrastination, people-pleasing, fear of mistakes, difficulty resting, or the persistent sense that whatever you do is never quite enough. I help clients understand what drives these patterns, loosen the connection between performance and self-worth, and develop standards that support growth without requiring constant self-criticism. The goal isn’t to stop caring about doing things well—it’s to make “good enough” actually feel good enough.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Perfectionism often looks like high standards on the surface, but underneath can be a fear of failure, criticism, or not being enough. I help you understand the roots of these patterns while gradually loosening their grip. Together, we will work toward a more flexible, self-compassionate way of relating to yourself and your goals. This way you can still be productive but also feel more at peace.

Dr. Teresa Huff-Pomstra
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
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!
