Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism is one of the primary areas of focus in my practice. I work with adults who set exceptionally high standards for themselves and struggle with self-criticism, fear of failure, overthinking, procrastination, or the persistent sense that what they accomplish is never quite enough. My approach helps clients understand the deeper patterns driving perfectionism while developing greater flexibility, self-compassion, and the ability to pursue meaningful goals without their worth depending on how well they perform.

Juniper Mental Health
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism is not problematic for everyone, but for some, the drive to always do more and be better can have a negative impact on their daily stress, relationships, and take away from the life they want to be living. We have several providers on our team who have authored books and research on this very topic. Reach out to consult with our perfectionism specialists to discuss treatment.

Lisa Botticelli
Psychologist, Ph.D., PMH-C, c-DBT
Together we'll look at the ways in which perfectionism may lead to maladaptive or problematic behaviors, or otherwise take you away from your core goals and values. We'll focus on compassion and accountability, rather than meeting an impossible standard.

Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
Perfectionistic striving can leave little room to rest, feel satisfied, or meet yourself with understanding when something goes wrong. In therapy, we explore the emotional and relational patterns beneath these demands and the meanings carried by success, failure, and being seen. The work supports greater flexibility and self-trust, allowing your standards to become part of a fuller, more livable relationship to yourself.

Fufan Chiang
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Perfectionism isn't just a drive to do well; it is an exhausting survival strategy that tells you your worth is only earned by performing, pleasing, and never letting anyone down. Carrying the invisible burden of "never good enough" leaves you hypervigilant, deeply self-critical, and entirely disconnected from your own needs. Through specialized, body-centered trauma therapy, we will move past these rigid standards and quiet your inner critic. You can transition away from constant overextension and step into real, lasting self-trust and genuine, physical calm.
