Perfectionism Therapy for Women
Support for women who feel constant pressure to get it right, overthink every decision, and struggle to rest without guilt.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
You look capable on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted from holding yourself to impossible standards.
That’s me!
Perfectionism often shows up as anxiety, self-criticism, people-pleasing, and the belief that rest or ease must be earned. It can feel like you’re never quite “enough,” no matter how much you do.
Perfectionism isn’t a flaw — it’s a strategy.
For many women, perfectionism developed as a way to stay safe, be accepted, or feel in control. It may have helped you succeed, but over time it can lead to burnout, anxiety, and a disconnection from yourself.
• fear of making mistakes
• difficulty resting
• harsh inner critic
• tying worth to productivity
How therapy can help with perfectionism
In therapy, we gently slow things down. Instead of trying to “fix” perfectionism, we get curious about what’s underneath it and what you actually need. Together, we work toward self-trust, flexibility, and a kinder relationship with yourself.
Soften the inner critic
Learn to recognize self-critical patterns without shame.
Create space for rest and authenticity
Reconnect with who you are beneath the pressure to perform.
Build self-trust
Practice making choices without overanalyzing or seeking constant reassurance.
