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.

Lindsey Lucius
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
Perfectionism often begins as a smart strategy for earning love, safety, or approval, and later becomes exhausting. We'll get to know the parts of you that push so hard, understand what they're afraid of, and help you grow kinder toward yourself so that good enough can finally feel like enough.

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.

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.
