Madison Zimbal
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA counseling intern under supervision
Perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside, but internally it often feels like pressure, self-criticism, fear of mistakes, and never feeling “enough.” I work with those who find themselves stuck in cycles of overthinking, overworking, people-pleasing, or holding impossibly high standards for themselves. In therapy, we explore where these patterns come from and how they show up in daily life—academically, professionally, relationally, and emotionally. Many clients struggling with perfectionism feel a constant sense of urgency or fear that they are falling short, even when they are doing more than enough. My approach is both supportive and practical. I help clients begin to notice rigid thought patterns, challenge all-or-nothing thinking, and develop a more compassionate and flexible way of relating to themselves. We also work on building emotional tolerance for imperfection, mistakes, and “good enough” moments without overwhelming guilt or anxiety. For clients who desire it, Christian counseling can be integrated to explore themes of grace, identity, and worth beyond performance. Faith can offer a grounding reminder that value is not earned through achievement, but received through inherent worth. My goal is to help clients step out of the cycle of pressure and into a more balanced, self-compassionate way of living, where success is no longer defined by perfection, but by growth, peace, and authenticity.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CIMPH
I help clients break free from the pressure to be perfect by exploring the fears and beliefs that drive perfectionism. Our work focuses on developing self-compassion, flexibility, and healthier standards that support growth rather than burnout.

Starlain Saldana
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.

Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
Claudia Blackwell talks about how perfectionism is born out of shame. It's a quote that has stuck with me for years. Perfectionism causes us to feel like we are never good enough, directly attacking our self-worth. Supportive therapy can help us identify the attacks of perfectionism, learn the language of our inner critic, and forge a path forward with self-compassion and self-acceptance.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults whose perfectionism has stopped serving them, professionals and scientists who are high performing but burning out int he workplace and privately exhausted by their own inner critic. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, which helps identify the specific thought patterns driving perfectionistic behavior and build a more sustainable relationship with achievement. Many of my clients are first-generation Latinx professionals, for whom perfectionism is often tied to family expectations and the pressure of being the first to do what they do. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, so progress is something you can see and track, not just feel.
