Evelyn Ponce
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help clients see perfectionism as a protective part that uses relentless standards to shield you from underlying fears of failure, judgment, or unworthiness. We work to extend compassion to young wounds carrying fear and shame, easing the pressure to be perfect and restoring authentic self-worth.

Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Perfectionism is rarely about getting everything right. It is often a survival pattern that develops when you've learned that mistakes are unsafe, success earns acceptance, or your value depends on what you accomplish. While perfectionism may have helped you achieve, it can also leave you feeling anxious, exhausted, and disconnected from yourself.
Together, we'll uncover the patterns beneath perfectionism, quiet your inner critic, strengthen self-trust, and help you embrace progress over perfection. My goal is to help you pursue excellence from a place of confidence and authenticity rather than fear and self-protection.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with perfectionism—the constant pressure to get everything right, meet high expectations, and avoid mistakes at all costs. While perfectionism can look like success on the outside, it often comes with anxiety, burnout, and a harsh inner critic that’s hard to turn off. Together, we focus on understanding the patterns driving perfectionism and building more flexible, sustainable ways of thinking and responding. My approach combines practical tools with mind-body awareness, helping you reduce pressure, increase self-trust, and show up more fully—without feeling like everything has to be perfect first.

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.
