Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism, including rigid standards, fear of failure, procrastination, and chronic self-criticism. My approach helps clients understand the underlying drivers of perfectionism while building practical tools to increase flexibility, follow-through, and self-compassion. I support clients in challenging all-or-nothing thinking, reducing avoidance, and taking more consistent, values-driven action. Together, we focus on developing a more balanced internal standard, improving resilience, and creating a healthier, more sustainable way of engaging with work, relationships, and personal goals.

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.

Heather Curry
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards alone. For many people it’s a strategy to prevent criticism, mistakes, or rejection. You may spend a lot of mental energy preparing, rechecking, and evaluating yourself, and still feel uneasy afterward. Even accomplishments often bring relief rather than satisfaction.
Therapy focuses on understanding what your mind is trying to protect you from. Instead of forcing yourself to “care less,” we work with the parts of you that feel responsible for preventing problems and gradually help your system tolerate being human without constant self-monitoring. As the underlying fear settles, effort and performance often become more sustainable and less exhausting.

Michelle Borunda
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perfectionism often looks like high standards from the outside, but from the inside it can feel like nothing is ever quite enough. I work with clients to understand where that pressure came from and to build a healthier relationship with rest, mistakes, and their own worth, one that doesn't depend on constant achievement.

Perfectionism comes because of various reasons and I hope to support your needs by finding what can be done to challenge that perfectionism not to be lose your functionality but to gain the ability to succeed but not be stuck in a stage that you lack movement in your life.

Amarillo sits at the heart of the Texas Panhandle — a vast agricultural and energy-producing region — with a therapy community shaped by its role as the commercial and medical center for a large, largely rural surrounding population. The city's predominantly conservative, faith-oriented culture means spiritually integrated therapy is a mainstream part of the local offering rather than a specialty niche. BSA Health System and Northwest Texas Healthcare System provide institutional mental health anchors for the Panhandle region, with a private therapy community that serves both city residents and clients traveling in from smaller surrounding communities. Amarillo's significant Hispanic population and growing refugee and immigrant communities create ongoing demand for bilingual and culturally informed therapists.
