Perfectionism

I used to joke that I'm a "recovering perfectionist," but trying to recover from it might just be another way of holding ourselves to someone else's standard (of not being "uptight" or "too good" or something). I think the real key is to figure out what our internal compass really wants to point us to. If we were born to pay attention and excel, let's do that in a way that helps us and others thrive, with less shame and stress when we mess up. I'm an Enneagram 1 (I lead with a personality type that can be called "perfectionist" or "idealist"). Maybe you are an Enneagram 1, or a 2 (a people pleaser), or 3 (an achiever). Or maybe you weren't born this way, but your parents pressured you into perfectionism. However perfectionism intersects with your personality, let's find a way to honor its gifts while asking it to rest a bit so other parts of you can also shine.

Perfectionism

Mackson Psychology

Psychologist, Samantha Mackson, Psy.D.

Perfectionism can create constant pressure to meet unrealistic expectations, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, or never quite good enough. I help clients challenge these patterns, develop greater self-compassion, and find a healthier balance between striving for growth and accepting yourself as you are.

Perfectionism

Nour Counseling

Counselor/Therapist

Perfectionism is often praised—but let’s be clear: most of what gets called “perfectionism” is actually pressure. Pressure to perform, to be liked, to get it right, to not mess up in a world that doesn’t give you much room to be human. A lot of those standards don’t come from you. They come from dominant cultural norms—productivity, achievement, appearance, success—that you’ve been taught to internalize, even when they don’t actually match what you value. So you keep pushing, overthinking, over-preparing, holding yourself to impossible expectations… and still feeling like it’s not enough. At Nour Counseling, we don’t treat perfectionism like a personality quirk or something to “optimize.” We take it apart. We help you identify where these standards came from, how they’ve been reinforced, and what they’re costing you—your time, your energy, your relationships, your sense of self. From there, we actively work with you to build something different: clearer values, more flexible thinking, and ways of showing up that don’t require constant self-pressure to maintain. This includes learning how to tolerate imperfection, make decisions without over-analysis, and step out of cycles that keep you stuck. This work is about reclaiming your life from expectations that were never really yours—and building one that actually reflects what matters to you.
