Perfectionism
Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals who struggle with perfectionism, excessive self-criticism, fear of failure, or the feeling that they must constantly achieve, perform, or get things right in order to feel worthy. Together, we explore the deeper beliefs and protective patterns that can drive perfectionism, including the fear of judgment, rejection, failure, or not being “enough.” Through a trauma-informed, somatic, and compassionate approach, I help clients develop greater self-acceptance, flexibility, and safety within themselves while learning to separate their inherent worth from their accomplishments. Our work creates space to pursue growth and meaningful goals without living under the constant pressure to prove yourself.

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.

Perfectionism
A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Perfectionism can make even your accomplishments feel like they’re never quite enough. You may set impossibly high expectations for yourself, overthink mistakes, compare yourself to others, procrastinate because you’re afraid of getting it wrong, or constantly move the finish line instead of allowing yourself to feel proud. I work with women who are exhausted from believing their worth depends on how well they perform, how much they accomplish, or how others perceive them. Together, we’ll explore what drives the pressure to be perfect and work toward replacing constant self-criticism with self-compassion, flexibility, and a stronger sense of worth that isn’t dependent on getting everything right.

Perfectionism
Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I work with individuals who feel stuck in the pressure of always needing to do more, be better, or get everything “right.” Perfectionism can be exhausting—it often comes with overthinking, self-criticism, people-pleasing, fear of disappointing others, and feeling like you can never fully relax or slow down. Many people look like they’re holding it all together on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed inside. In therapy, I create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can let your guard down and stop carrying so much pressure alone. Together, we work on building self-compassion, healthier boundaries, and a more balanced way of living that feels less overwhelming and more sustainable.

Perfectionism
Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.
