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
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.

Perfectionism
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who hold themselves to very high standards and feel the cost of that internally. Perfectionism can look like overworking, difficulty stopping, constant self‑criticism, or a sense that nothing is ever quite enough. It can also look like procrastination, avoidance, or shutting down when something feels too overwhelming or too important to get wrong. Many people I see are highly responsible and often successful on the outside, but feel tense, depleted, or quietly anxious much of the time.
Perfectionism often develops as a way to stay safe, cope with unpredictability, or manage early experiences where being competent, careful, or invisible felt necessary. Over time, these strategies can become exhausting. You may notice that you rarely feel satisfied, that rest feels undeserved, or that you are harder on yourself than anyone else would ever be, even when you are doing your best.
In our work together, we make space for the part of you that strives and the part of you that is tired of striving. Rather than forcing you to “let go” of high standards, we get curious about what perfectionism has been protecting and what it is costing you now. We pay attention to how perfectionism shows up in your body, thoughts, and relationships, and look for ways of relating to yourself that are still responsible and thoughtful but less punishing, so you can experience more ease, satisfaction, and permission to be human in your work, relationships, and inner life. Working with perfectionism is a central part of my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve been working to hold everything together.

Perfectionism
Inner World Counseling Services PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Perfectionism is rarely about a desire for excellence; usually, it is an exhausting shield used to protect yourself from judgment, failure, or feeling 'never good enough.' I specialize in working with high-achieving adults, 'fixers,' and peacekeepers who use perfectionism and over-functioning to stay safe, only to find themselves drowning in chronic worry and burnout. Together, we look beneath the behavior to heal the root anxieties and past traumas driving the need to be flawless. We will work to silence your harsh inner critic, dismantle the fear of letting others down, and help you trade the crushing weight of perfection for genuine self-compassion and peace
