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.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to get things “just right,” often leading to stress, self-criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied or at ease. In therapy, we’ll look at what drives these patterns and how they’ve taken shape over time. By developing a more flexible, compassionate way of relating to yourself, you can begin to ease the pressure, take healthier risks, and engage with your work and relationships in a way that feels more balanced and sustainable.

Allied Psychotherapy Group
Psychologist
Perfectionism can look like ambition from the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. You may constantly second-guess yourself, fear making mistakes, procrastinate because nothing feels good enough, or struggle to enjoy your accomplishments. Our therapists help clients understand the beliefs and patterns behind perfectionism and develop a healthier relationship with achievement, expectations, and self-worth. Therapy can help you become more flexible, less self-critical, and more confident making decisions without needing everything to be perfect.

Eve Picower
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
This may sound strange, but perfectionism is not perfect! Perfectionism is actually linked to high stress levels, procrastination, poor sleep, anxiety, depression and harsh self criticism, fear of failure, difficulty making decisions, and even interpersonal challenges. Does this sound like you? I hope you won't let perfectionism get in the way of reaching out to me for help.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I help clients recognize and work through perfectionistic thinking, self-criticism, and the pressure of unrealistic expectations that can create stress and burnout. Together, we explore the underlying fears driving these patterns and begin developing more flexible, balanced, and self-compassionate ways of thinking and responding. My approach is supportive and practical, focused on helping you reduce the constant sense of pressure, tolerate imperfection, and relate to yourself with more understanding. The goal is greater ease, emotional flexibility, and a stronger sense of self-acceptance in both daily life and personal goals. If you’re ready to step out of constant self-pressure, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.

Taylor Lee
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP, Ed.M., M.A.
I specialize in working with clients struggling with perfectionism, especially those who feel driven by self-criticism, fear of mistakes, or pressure to meet high expectations. Many of my clients have spent years holding themselves to rigid standards or tying their worth to achievement. Together, we explore the roots of these patterns, soften harsh inner dialogue, and build a more compassionate, flexible way of relating to yourself.
