Therapy for High Functioning Anxiety & Perfectionism

What is High-Functioning Anxiety?
High-functioning anxiety often looks like success: you are likely meeting deadlines, appear put together, and people may even envy your productivity and drive. But internally, it can feel like constant worry, tension, and self-criticism. you may struggle with perfectionism, overthinking, or feeling like you’re never doing enough even when others see you excelling.
