Therapy for Perfectionists
and High-Achieving Women
You’ve mastered your professional world—led teams, driven results, and earned respect. Everything looks polished on the outside.
Yet underneath? There’s part of you that feels perpetually behind, silently anxious, or stuck in a cycle of never enough.
At Julia Taub Therapy, we specialize in this very tension.
We know what it’s like to be the person who’s always trusted to deliver—and to feel that same drive toward excellence whispering messages like “If I stop trying, I’ll fall.”
Therapy here isn’t about stepping off the track. It’s about shifting how you run it.
Who This Is For…
This is your type of therapy if you feel:
“If I’m not busy, I’m failing.”
Unfulfilled even while performing at a high level.
Constant overthinking and fear of making mistakes.
Rest feels uncomfortable or unsafe.
A strong outer confidence masking inner self-doubt.
Then this work is for you. You don’t have to choose between ambition and peace. You can lead, achieve, and still feel grounded.
At Julia Taub Therapy, we help high-achieving women in NYC and Westchester move beyond burnout and perfectionism—toward balance, confidence, and self-trust.
Why This Work Matters
High-achieving women face a unique set of pressures—constant performance, high stakes, and a culture that rewards output more than rest. Traditional therapy doesn’t always speak to that world.
You need a space where being driven is understood, and your emotional experience is seen, too.
Here’s how we work together:
We recognize your success and your struggle. By naming the patterns—perfectionism, self-critique, people-pleasing—you start to separate who you are from what you do.
We build tools tailored to you. There is no one-size-fits-all advice. Instead, we develop practical strategies for setting boundaries, regulating your nervous system, and redefining success beyond the next achievement.
We create a space of real connection. Where you don’t have to explain why you can’t “just relax.” Where your public strength and private overwhelm hold equal weight.Using evidence-based strategies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we’ll begin to challenge distorted thinking, soften your inner critic, calm your nervous system, and foster a more resilient and stable sense of self.
