Release Perfectionism and Restore Self-Esteem with compassionate Online Therapy
While your perfectionism is sometimes praised by others, you know its downsides all too well—people-pleasing, poor boundaries, and always feeling like you’re performing, to name just a few. It’s exhausting. And let’s face it: perfectionism hasn’t exactly resulted in a version of yourself that you love. But you don’t know how to accept yourself—let alone like yourself.
Perfectionism not only undermines self-esteem but also drains the joy from life.
If you’re ready to embrace your authentic self, reach out to us to start online therapy for self-esteem and perfectionism. No matter where you are in California, we’re here to support you via online therapy!

“Perfectionism is not self-improvement. Perfectionism is, at its core, about trying to earn approval and acceptance. Most perfectionists were raised being praised for achievement and performance (grades, manners, rule-following, people-pleasing, appearance, sports). Somewhere along the way, we adopt this dangerous and debilitating belief system: I am what I accomplish and how well I accomplish it.”

In binge eating therapy, you’ll develop skills to cope and heal the underlying causes of bingeing.
