Solid Ground Counseling & Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Perfectionism can look like high standards on the outside while feeling like constant pressure on the inside. If "good enough" never feels good enough, therapy can help you understand where those expectations come from, quiet the self-criticism, and make room for a life that doesn't require getting everything right.

Dr. Heather Sheets
Psychologist, PsyD
Perfectionism can look like ambition, high standards, or simply wanting to do things well. But underneath the drive to get everything right can be a persistent fear of failure, criticism, disappointment, or not being enough.
You may find yourself overthinking decisions, setting unrealistic expectations, being highly self-critical, or feeling that no matter what you accomplish, it is never quite enough. You may have learned to measure your worth by your productivity, success, appearance, relationships, or ability to meet the expectations of others.
I work with individuals who struggle with perfectionism to understand where these patterns come from and how they may be affecting the way they experience themselves and their lives. Together, we explore the core beliefs and internal expectations that fuel the need to be perfect and examine how those beliefs influence your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and choices.
Using cognitive behavioral, emotion-focused, mindfulness-based, and strength-based approaches, I help you develop a more compassionate and realistic relationship with yourself. We work on challenging all-or-nothing thinking, tolerating uncertainty and mistakes, and separating your sense of self-worth from your accomplishments.
The goal is not to make you care less or give up the qualities that have helped you succeed. Rather, it is to help you pursue what matters to you without being driven by fear, self-criticism, or the belief that you must be perfect to be worthy.
You don't have to choose between striving for meaningful goals and being at peace with yourself. Therapy can help you create a healthier balance—one where you can achieve, grow, and succeed while also allowing yourself to be human.

Samia Geraghty
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
As a recovering perfectionist I understand first hand how difficult it can be to change the internal messages of shame and inadequacy. When you struggle with perfectionism, your self-worth is entirely tied to your achievements, leaving you trapped in an exhausting cycle of setting impossible standards, working to the point of burnout, and harshly criticizing yourself for the slightest mistake. This can manifest as chronic procrastination out of a fear of failing, decision paralysis, or an inability to celebrate your wins because you are already stressing over the next goal. In a world that rewards constant hustle, perfectionism can feel like a necessary survival tool, but it ultimately robs you of your peace, creativity, and true self-worth. Therapy offers a compassionate, judgment-free space to safely put down the heavy burden of having to be flawless. Together, we will work to quiet your harsh inner critic and learn to embrace your humanity and build genuine self-compassion.
