Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, perfectionism is often driven by protective parts that strive for high standards to prevent failure, criticism, or rejection. These parts typically guard more vulnerable exiled parts that carry shame, inadequacy, or fear of not being enough. Therapy focuses on helping clients access Self to relate to these parts with compassion, allowing rigid perfectionistic roles to soften and creating space for greater flexibility and self-acceptance.

Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism looks like high standards from the outside and feels like never being enough on the inside. It fuels real achievement and... quiet exhaustion, procrastination, and dread of failing in front of others. I help high-achievers, athletes, and professionals keep the drive while loosening its grip: separating your worth from your performance, so you can pursue excellence without punishing yourself for being human.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
If you hold yourself to very high standards yet rarely feel satisfied with your efforts, perfectionism may be driving constant pressure beneath the surface. While striving for excellence can be a strength, perfectionism often brings self-criticism, worry about mistakes, and difficulty slowing down. Therapy focuses on understanding these patterns and developing healthier ways to pursue high standards without the chronic strain.

Psychologist, PhD, LP
While aspects of perfectionism have often been helpful for folks to achieve and get to where they are in life, it also has a shadow side rooted in fear of failure, shame, and anxiety. Additionally, our society often reinforces perfectionism in ways that make it difficult from which to un-tangle. Our work will hold the ways it has been helpful while also challenging you to gain comfort with 'good enough' approaches to life.
