You’ll learn to separate your worth from your productivity, allowing you to feel good about yourself beyond what you accomplish.

If you set unrealistically high standards, struggle to delegate, or feel anxious about mistakes, counseling can help.
Not at all. The goal is to help you stay motivated while releasing the anxiety and self-criticism that hold you back.
Healthy striving is goal-oriented and flexible; perfectionism is driven by fear of failure or not being “enough.”
Yes, we offer both in-person and online sessions across Chicago.
