Ryan Shannon
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
Perfectionism can look like ambition from the outside, but internally it may feel like constant pressure. You may procrastinate because you are afraid of getting something wrong, overwork yourself trying to meet impossible standards, struggle to accept praise, or feel that your worth depends on how well you perform.
My approach is both insight-oriented and practical. Drawing from Adlerian and psychodynamic therapy, we may explore how criticism, family expectations, comparison, achievement, or past experiences shaped the belief that you must be exceptional to feel secure, respected, or worthy. We can also examine what perfectionism protects you from, such as rejection, shame, uncertainty, or the fear of disappointing others.
I use CBT to help you identify all-or-nothing thinking, unrealistic expectations, and harsh self-judgments. We may practice replacing rigid standards with goals that are challenging but sustainable. Mindfulness can also help you notice self-critical thoughts without automatically obeying them.
When appropriate, I may suggest behavioral missions that involve doing something imperfectly, submitting work without excessive checking, resting before everything is finished, asking for help, or allowing someone to see you while you are still learning. These challenges are paced carefully and designed to help you discover that mistakes and uncertainty are uncomfortable, but survivable.
My goal is not to take away your motivation or lower your standards. It is to help you pursue meaningful goals without sacrificing your health, relationships, or sense of self in the process.

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C
Perfectionism often masks a deeper fear of not being enough as you are. We will trace where that pressure came from and practice a more honest, sustainable relationship with effort, mistakes, and self-worth.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Perfectionism often looks like high standards on the surface, but underneath can be a fear of failure, criticism, or not being enough. I help you understand the roots of these patterns while gradually loosening their grip. Together, we will work toward a more flexible, self-compassionate way of relating to yourself and your goals. This way you can still be productive but also feel more at peace.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with perfectionism—the constant pressure to get everything right, meet high expectations, and avoid mistakes at all costs. While perfectionism can look like success on the outside, it often comes with anxiety, burnout, and a harsh inner critic that’s hard to turn off. Together, we focus on understanding the patterns driving perfectionism and building more flexible, sustainable ways of thinking and responding. My approach combines practical tools with mind-body awareness, helping you reduce pressure, increase self-trust, and show up more fully—without feeling like everything has to be perfect first.
