Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Perfectionism can feel like an endless treadmill—a constant pressure to do more, be more, and never make a mistake. While it might look like high achievement from the outside, on the inside, it often feels like exhaustion, chronic self-doubt, and a fear that if you slow down, the "truth" of your inadequacy will be revealed. In our work, we look beyond the surface of your to-do list to unpack the profound impact perfectionism has had on your mental health and self-worth.
I use a deeply compassionate and relational approach to help you understand the roots of this pressure. We can incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to target and process the traumas or early life experiences where you first learned that your value was tied to your performance. By weaving in IFS and psychodynamic insights, we’ll work to soften the voice of the inner critic and unburden the parts of you that feel "not enough." My goal is to help you trade the crushing weight of perfection for a life of genuine self-compassion, where you are free to be human, messy, and whole.

Caroline Lacelle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
My treatment approach follows the three phases of trauma treatment; resourcing, reprocessing, and reorienting. Together we will determine the resources you may need to tap into a grounded sense of self through somatic practices and parts work. Deep Brain Reorienting, EMDR, and ART guide reprocessing to shift past experiences into the past so you can reorient and engage fully in the present.
