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.

Long Island Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, CCTP
While striving for excellence can be a strength, chronic perfectionism often leads to a paralyzing fear of failure, endless procrastination, and a harsh inner critic that is never satisfied. I help high-achievers break free from the exhausting trap of "never feeling good enough." Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we will work to dismantle all-or-nothing thinking, cultivate authentic self-compassion, and help you achieve your goals without sacrificing your mental health.

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.

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.

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.

Christie Roe
Therapist, LMSW
However perfectionism and vigilance show up for you, I offer trauma-informed and neuro-affirming support with space to practice recognizing attitudes, beliefs, and systems that may no longer be serving you, and begin to release and repattern in your chosen direction.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Perfectionism is often driven by fear, shame, and a belief that you are only worthy if you do things perfectly. Together we work on understanding the roots of perfectionism, reducing the anxiety around mistakes, and helping you build a life that is more flexible, creative, and humane.
