What if your perfectionism isn’t a problem… but a protector?
I see this all the time in my sessions. Someone wants to share their work or speak up—but a voice inside says, “Not until it’s perfect.”
That voice isn’t trying to sabotage you. It’s trying to keep you safe.
In Internal Family Systems (IFS), we work with that voice gently. We learn what it’s afraid of and offer it something it may have never had: compassion.
I just wrote a blog post on this. If you struggle with perfectionism, I think it will help.

And if this hits home, I’d love to support you in a 1:1 session.

Belonging: an afternoon of coming home is a mini retreat Laura and I are hosting on September 28th.

There are those of us who have always felt left out, wrong footed, too much, not enough or just not fitting the mold. This day will be for us to sink deep into the practice of finding our belonging within ourselves. Laura will guide meditations, Katrina will lead therapeutic process art and we will both facilitate deep and nourishing group process and practice.
