Perfectionism
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in treating perfectionism because I’ve witnessed how this "hidden" struggle binds, shackles, and exhausts even the highest achievers. While often mistaken for a strength, unhealthy perfectionism drives relentless self-criticism, anxiety, burnout, and imposter syndrome, turning the pursuit of excellence into a form of self-punishment.
I am passionate about helping clients break free from the "all-or-nothing" cycle and reclaim their time, energy, and joy. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT and self-compassion, I help you shift from harsh judgment to self-kindness, allowing you to move from “never enough” to a sustainable, authentic life where mistakes are seen as opportunities for growth rather than fatal failures.

Perfectionism
Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Big changes—starting high school or college, changing schools, moving, or figuring out what comes next—can bring uncertainty, stress, and self-doubt. Even positive transitions can feel overwhelming. I help teens and young adults navigate these shifts with more clarity and confidence, building coping skills, resilience, and a stronger sense of direction so you can move forward feeling more grounded.

Perfectionism
Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults whose perfectionism has stopped serving them, professionals and scientists who are high performing but burning out int he workplace and privately exhausted by their own inner critic. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, which helps identify the specific thought patterns driving perfectionistic behavior and build a more sustainable relationship with achievement. Many of my clients are first-generation Latinx professionals, for whom perfectionism is often tied to family expectations and the pressure of being the first to do what they do. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, so progress is something you can see and track, not just feel.

Perfectionism
Full Circle Mental Health LLC
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LISW
Perfectionism is rarely about a simple desire to do well; it is a relentless, exhausting armor used to protect ourselves from shame, judgment, and the fear of never being "enough." When you are trapped in this cycle, every mistake feels catastrophic, procrastination takes over out of fear of failure, and chronic burnout bleeds into your career, relationships, and health. At Full Circle Mental Health LLC, I provide a compassionate, virtual space across Ohio to help you put down the heavy burden of impossible standards.
I view perfectionism through an integrative, trauma-informed lens, understanding that it often develops as a survival mechanism to find safety, control, or validation in early life or rigid environments. Grounded in a strengths-based framework, I help you unravel these patterns from the comfort of your own home.
You do not have to earn your right to rest or peace. Whether your perfectionism manifests as corporate burnout, relationship anxiety, or the rigid expectations left over from a strict religious upbringing, we will work as collaborative partners. Together, we will honor your innate resilience, build practical tools, and co-create a personalized virtual roadmap to help you embrace your authentic self and live a life of meaningful, flexible peace.
