Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
Folks who struggle with perfectionism and intellectualization tend to represent a high-percentage of my practice. In my experience, people who struggle with perfectionism may have parts that deny they’re a perfectionist—I mean, everybody has to have a standard, right? I love helping folks deepen their understanding of these standards which seem "mission critical,” but may actually be inhibiting happiness and growth.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Perfectionism is not about high standards. It is about self-worth becoming dependent on performance, productivity, and getting things “right.” It often leads to burnout, procrastination, and a constant feeling of never doing enough.
Our work focuses on breaking the cycle of overperformance and self-pressure, helping you build a more sustainable way of functioning that does not require constant self-sacrifice.

Melena Ayres
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S, LCDC
Perfectionism can look like high standards on the outside—but on the inside, it often feels like pressure, fear of failure, and never feeling “good enough.” It can keep us stuck, burned out, or constantly second-guessing ourselves. I help clients move away from rigid expectations and toward self-compassion, flexibility, and a healthier, more sustainable way of showing up in their lives. We oftentimes notice a remarkable improvement in our relationship with ourselves and with others as we heal our 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.

Laredo is one of the most culturally unified US-Mexico border cities in the country — with a population that is over 95% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life — making bilingual, bicultural therapists not a specialty but an essential baseline for meaningful access to care. The city's economy is driven by international trade and logistics, with one of the busiest land ports in the United States, and therapists frequently address the occupational stress of commercial transport workers alongside the immigration stress experienced by families maintaining ties on both sides of the border. Laredo Medical Center and the Laredo VA Outpatient Clinic provide institutional resources, while the therapy community overall is relatively sparse compared to the population's scale. Webb County's concentration of poverty and social stress amplifies the need for community-accessible mental health services.
