Jill Verofsky
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Perfectionism isn't "having high standards" or caring about quality—it's a maladaptive defense mechanism that mistakes flawlessness for safety. It uses impossible expectations as a shield to protect you against judgment, criticism, and the discomfort of failure.

Sarah Sternlieb
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Always feeling like you have to get things “just right” can be exhausting. You might look like you have it together on the outside, but inside there’s pressure, self-doubt, or fear of getting it wrong. For many people, this started earlier in life, where getting it right felt necessary. We explore where that pressure comes from and help you find a different way of relating to yourself.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Perfectionism is sneaky; on one hand, it might feel productive to try to find the "best" or "fastest" way to complete certain tasks. On the other hand, perfectionism can create unrealistic or impossible standards for ourselves and those around us. It can feed into anxiety, low-self esteem, procrastination, negative self-talk, or relationship issues. I work with perfectionists as they take a look at the ways these perfectionistic beliefs are no longer serving them, and help them move forward feeling okay with "good enough."

Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism often feels like a shield, but it’s actually a weight that leaves you feeling "less than." When the fear of mistakes becomes paralyzing, my approach helps you identify the "all-or-nothing" stories keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll practice "imperfection" at a manageable pace, shifting the focus from impossible standards to your actual values. By learning to tolerate the discomfort of being human, you’ll gain the freedom to take risks and finally show up as your authentic self.
