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.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Perfectionism often hides behind achievement. For highly functioning, educated, or professionally successful people, the pressure to perform, get things right, and meet exceptionally high standards can become exhausting. You may appear capable and confident while privately struggling with self-criticism, fear of failure, overthinking, or feeling that your accomplishments are never quite enough. In therapy, I help clients understand the beliefs driving perfectionism, develop more flexible expectations, and separate their sense of worth from constant performance. The goal is to keep the strengths that have helped you succeed while creating more room for confidence, balance, and a life that does not depend on always getting everything right.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Perfectionism is not really about high standards — it is about what you believe will happen if you fall short. The clients I see with perfectionism are usually accomplished and exhausted, unable to enjoy what they have done because attention moves straight to the next thing, and privately convinced the whole structure depends on their vigilance. Rather than trying to talk you out of your standards, I am interested in where they came from, whose approval they were originally for, and what they have protected you from feeling. Self-acceptance does more for functioning than self-criticism ever has, but it cannot be adopted on command — it develops through being understood.

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.
