Support for Perfectionism, Burnout, and Performance Pressure
You’re successful on the outside—but it never feels like enough on the inside.
If you’re used to being the one who holds it all together—at work, on the field, or in your relationships—asking for support might feel unfamiliar. At La Jolla Wellness, we specialize in therapy for high performers who are tired of white-knuckling through their lives.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, student, athlete, or leader, we help you manage perfectionism, ease internal pressure, and reconnect with your worth beyond achievement.

High Standards Don’t Have to Come at the Cost of Your Mental Health
Our clients often describe themselves as:
Overachievers, perfectionists, or “type-A”
Successful but burnt out
Motivated but anxious
Constantly setting new goals—and never celebrating wins
Fearful of failure, judgment, or letting others down
You might be outwardly thriving while silently struggling with stress, imposter syndrome, or a nonstop inner critic. Therapy can help you perform and feel better.
Therapy That Supports Ambition—Without the Burnout
We blend science-backed tools with a compassionate, relatable approach. In therapy, we’ll help you:
Understand the roots of your perfectionism or people-pleasing
Learn how to manage stress without pushing yourself to the edge
Rewire your inner dialogue for more self-compassion
Break the cycle of overthinking and self-criticism
Redefine success in a way that aligns with your values
You don’t have to sacrifice your ambition to feel more balanced—you just need new tools and space to pause.
Designed for Driven People Like You
Whether you’re building a business, training for competition, or simply doing the most (all the time), we get what it’s like to operate at a high level.
We work with high-achieving women, athletes, creatives, grad students, and professionals in La Jolla and across San Diego who want to stay ambitious—but without the anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt.
Our therapists will meet you where you are—whether you’re ready to go deep or just want space to breathe.
You’re Allowed to Slow Down Without Losing Momentum
We know you’re used to pushing through. But healing doesn’t require hustle.
