Perfectionism
Fufan Chiang
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Perfectionism isn't just a drive to do well; it is an exhausting survival strategy that tells you your worth is only earned by performing, pleasing, and never letting anyone down. Carrying the invisible burden of "never good enough" leaves you hypervigilant, deeply self-critical, and entirely disconnected from your own needs. Through specialized, body-centered trauma therapy, we will move past these rigid standards and quiet your inner critic. You can transition away from constant overextension and step into real, lasting self-trust and genuine, physical calm.

Perfectionism
Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Perfectionism can look like high standards on the surface, but often comes with anxiety, self-criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied or at ease. Therapy helps you understand the function of these patterns and develop a more flexible, sustainable way of approaching achievement and self-worth.

Perfectionism
Farzana Rahman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
As the eldest daughter and child of South Asian immigrants, I have worked extensively with Asian American clients who are recovering people pleasers and perfectionists. Perfectionism often overlaps with depression and anxiety, and part of the work we will do together is understanding and identifying which ingrained beliefs are contributing towards specific habits or patterns.

Perfectionism
Carmen Ceballos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
We provide therapy for perfectionism to support working women who feel stuck in cycles of self-pressure, overworking, and never feeling “good enough.” Perfectionism often shows up as fear of making mistakes, constant self-criticism, difficulty slowing down, and tying your worth to productivity or achievement. Using evidence-based approaches, we help you challenge rigid standards, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and develop a more balanced, sustainable way of approaching your goals. Together, we focus on building self-compassion, setting realistic expectations, and helping you move forward with confidence—without the constant pressure to be perfect.

Perfectionism
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism often looks like ambition, conscientiousness, or high standards, but underneath it feels like a persistent fear of making mistakes, disappointing others, or never being good enough. You may find it difficult to celebrate accomplishments, set boundaries, or feel satisfied even when you’re doing exceptionally well. It can be extremely isolating when everyone around you thinks you're doing just fine. Together, we’ll explore what drives your perfectionism and work on loosening the grip of self-criticism, so you can continue pursuing meaningful goals without feeling that your worth depends on getting everything right.
