Perfectionism
Sara Pavel
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Perfectionism can create constant pressure to get things right, fear of failure, harsh self-criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied with your accomplishments. Therapy can help you recognize unhelpful perfectionistic patterns, develop more flexible expectations, and build a healthier relationship with achievement, mistakes, and yourself.

Perfectionism
Phil Hughes (Philosophy Counseling & Consulting, LLC)
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S, CMNCS
Feeling like you have to do everything perfect is hella hard. Maybe this was imposed in childhood by people in our life or maybe it is self-imposed, regardless, the pressure can be crushing when you feel like you can't escape. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with perfectionism by addressing the roots of these issues, challenging cognitions, and healing those parts of us that are enough without having to be perfect.

Perfectionism
Dr. Monika Sharma
Psychologist, PsyD
Perfectionism is anxiety in disguise. It appears to be on your side, encouraging you to strive to be better. However, it is an unrelenting critic that tells you that you or other people/things are not good enough...ever. It can help you in the beginning to strive for excellence and over-achieve, to be recognized for your accomplishments and capabilities. But your perfectionism does not allow you to truly feel or celebrate all of your effort. Over time, it can look like exhaustion, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, depression, anxiety, procrastination, and feeling like you don't know how to stop from unraveling or being discovered as a fraud. It's a self-imposed prison that feels suffocating to be but even more terrifying to get out of.
I will teach you how to be curious about your uncomfortable feelings and tendencies such as perfectionism, anxiety, anger, fear, sadness, loneliness, and overwhelm. This involves learning to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings because they won't actually hurt us; approach these feelings without judgment; poke at them and examine them and see what lies within them; and then decide how we want to use these feelings as a compass to guide us toward those things that truly matter. You will feel empowered to be the master of your feelings, not a puppet to them.

Perfectionism
Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism can fuel achievement, persistence, and attention to detail, and it is often rewarded in demanding academic and professional environments. Over time, however, unrelenting standards, fear of mistakes, overwork, self-criticism, or tying your worth to your performance can become exhausting and unsustainable. A setback, transition, increased responsibility, or period of burnout may eventually make it impossible to keep meeting the expectations you have set for yourself. When strategies that once helped you succeed stop working, it can feel as though your competence, identity, or life is beginning to unravel.
Working on perfectionism does not mean giving up ambition or settling for less. Therapy can help you understand what drives your perfectionism, distinguish meaningful striving from fear-based pressure, develop more flexible expectations, and respond to mistakes or limitations with greater perspective and self-compassion. The goal is to help you pursue excellence in ways that are healthier, more sustainable, and less dependent on relentless self-criticism.
