Anxiety and Perfectionism
Anxiety and perfectionism often go hand in hand. You may look capable and put together on the outside, while feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, or constantly “on” inside. Many of my clients seek therapy because anxiety feels exhausting, perfectionism feels impossible to turn off, and rest or self-compassion feels out of reach.
FAQs
How can therapy help?
In therapy, we’ll work together to better understand where your anxiety and perfectionism come from and how they show up in your daily life. You’ll learn tools to manage anxious thoughts, reduce self-criticism, and respond to stress in more supportive ways. I also incorporate mindfulness and body-based practices when appropriate, helping you regulate your nervous system — not just talk through your experiences. Therapy is a space to slow down, build awareness, and create more flexibility, balance, and ease.
Do you work with high-functioning anxiety?
Yes. Many of my clients are high-achieving individuals who experience anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout despite appearing successful or capable. Therapy focuses on reducing internal pressure while supporting meaningful, values-aligned change.
Do you work with anxiety during pregnancy or postpartum?
Yes. I frequently support individuals navigating anxiety and perfectionism during pregnancy and the postpartum period, offering care that is sensitive to these unique emotional transitions.
