Perfectionism
Perfectionism looks like drive from the outside. From the inside, it feels like never being enough.
You set high standards for everything — your work, your relationships, your appearance, even your healing.
You research the best therapist, make the perfect appointment, and then wonder if you are even doing therapy right. I see you. And I can help.
Perfectionism is not a personality trait. It is often a trauma response — a way of staying safe, staying loved, staying in control. Together, we can gently loosen its grip.
Who I Work With
- People who find it hard to start things unless they can do them perfectly
- Those who struggle to celebrate wins because there is always more to do
- Anyone who ties their self-worth to productivity and performance
- Those who fear failure, criticism, or being seen as less than capable
- People who appear confident and put-together while privately feeling like a fraud
- High achievers experiencing burnout, anxiety, or depression as a result of perfectionism
What Therapy for Perfectionism Looks Like
Therapy for perfectionism is not about lowering your standards. It is about freeing yourself from the fear beneath them. Together we will explore where your perfectionism began, how it has protected you, and how to build an identity rooted in who you are — not what you produce.
You have spent years being enough for everyone else. It is time to feel enough for yourself. Let's work on that together.
