Haven Psychology Group
Psychologist
High standards can be useful until mistakes feel intolerable, accomplishments never feel sufficient, or self-worth becomes tied to performance. Therapy can help clients recognize rigid patterns, respond differently to uncertainty and imperfection, and pursue meaningful goals without being governed by constant self-criticism.

Karen Hahn, Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, LCSW-C
I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism, helping them understand the thoughts and pressures that drive it. Together, we explore ways to manage self-criticism, set realistic expectations, and build self-compassion so they can feel more balanced, confident, and fulfilled.

Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
You may be accomplished, dependable, and highly capable, yet rarely feel satisfied with what you do. Mistakes can feel disproportionately threatening, rest can bring guilt, and even meaningful achievements may provide only brief relief before the next internal imperative takes over. I work with high achievers who are tired of being driven by self-criticism, fear of failure, or the feeling that they must continually prove their worth. Rather than simply trying to counteract perfectionist urges, we explore what perfectionism has come to mean and what it helps you avoid or protect against. The goal is to preserve your ambition while loosening the grip of the inner critic, so that your effort becomes a value-driven choice rather than a condition you use to determine your worth.

A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Perfectionism can make even your accomplishments feel like they’re never quite enough. You may set impossibly high expectations for yourself, overthink mistakes, compare yourself to others, procrastinate because you’re afraid of getting it wrong, or constantly move the finish line instead of allowing yourself to feel proud. I work with women who are exhausted from believing their worth depends on how well they perform, how much they accomplish, or how others perceive them. Together, we’ll explore what drives the pressure to be perfect and work toward replacing constant self-criticism with self-compassion, flexibility, and a stronger sense of worth that isn’t dependent on getting everything right.

Michele Robison, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Individuals who struggle with perfectionism typically experience anxiety. I help my clients not only learn what drives their perfectionism, but I help them learn how to free themselves from the beliefs that drive their perfectionism utilizing CBT and when appropriate, EMDR.
