Perfectionism
Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
Perfectionism is almost always a part doing its best to keep you safe — from criticism, from failure, from being seen as not enough. It's not a flaw to fix. It's a protector with an exhausting job. When we get curious about what that part is actually afraid of, and what it's been carrying, the grip tends to loosen in ways that willpower alone never could.

Perfectionism
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.

Perfectionism
Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I used to joke that I'm a "recovering perfectionist," but trying to recover from it might just be another way of holding ourselves to someone else's standard (of not being "uptight" or "too good" or something). I think the real key is to figure out what our internal compass really wants to point us to. If we were born to pay attention and excel, let's do that in a way that helps us and others thrive, with less shame and stress when we mess up. I'm an Enneagram 1 (I lead with a personality type that can be called "perfectionist" or "idealist"). Maybe you are an Enneagram 1, or a 2 (a people pleaser), or 3 (an achiever). Or maybe you weren't born this way, but your parents pressured you into perfectionism. However perfectionism intersects with your personality, let's find a way to honor its gifts while asking it to rest a bit so other parts of you can also shine.

Perfectionism
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to perform, anticipate, and prevent mistakes, often leaving little room for rest or self-compassion. Many women find themselves trapped in cycles of striving that feel productive on the surface but exhausting underneath. In therapy, we work to understand how these patterns developed and build more flexible ways of responding to expectations so that your sense of worth is not tied to constant output.
