Perfectionism
Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Perfectionism can leave you feeling like nothing you do is ever quite good enough. You might put pressure on yourself to get everything right, struggle to make mistakes, or find it difficult to rest without feeling guilty. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to help you process the experiences and emotions that contribute to these patterns. Together, we can work toward loosening the grip of self-criticism and fear of failure.

Perfectionism
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Perfectionism can show up as feeling never quite good enough, fear of making mistakes, difficulty resting, overthinking decisions, or carrying pressure to be constantly improving, performing, or meeting very high expectations. You may feel exhausted by trying to get everything right, struggling with self-criticism, or feeling anxious when things are out of control. I work somatically, trauma-informed, with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field, to help release the deeper roots of perfectionistic patterns. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports you in deeper understanding of your patterns, feeling safer in your body, more connected to your Self, and more.

Perfectionism
Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Perfectionism can look like high standards and responsibility on the outside, while internally bringing pressure, self-criticism, overthinking, procrastination, or a persistent sense that what you do is never quite enough. You may find it difficult to rest, make mistakes, disappoint others, or feel satisfied with your accomplishments. I help clients explore what perfectionism is protecting and how it may be connected to belonging, approval, safety, or self-worth. Through mindfulness, relational awareness, and compassionate curiosity, we can loosen rigid expectations and build a more flexible, trusting relationship with yourself—without giving up the parts of you that care deeply about doing things well.

Perfectionism
Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Perfectionism isn't about striving for excellence—it is a survival strategy designed to protect you from the pain of feeling not good enough. On the outside, your high standards make you look incredibly driven, successful, and reliable. But privately, the pressure to never make a mistake leaves you trapped in a relentless cycle of overthinking, chronic procrastination, and severe high-achievement burnout. You are left feeling deeply exhausted, stuck, and hyper-focused on what you should be doing, rather than who you actually are.I specialize in helping clients break free from the suffocating weight of perfectionism, self-doubt, and the chronic people-pleasing that often tags along with it. In our collaborative space, we won't try to "fix" you or strip away your drive. Instead, we use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to gently untangle unhelpful mindsets, quiet your loud inner critic, and build practical everyday tools rooted in self-compassion.Because perfectionism keeps your body in a state of constant, low-grade alarm, traditional talk therapy can sometimes keep you trapped in your head. To bypass that intellectual armor, we integrate somatic tools, breathing techniques, and visual exercises alongside neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting. Looking beneath the surface allows us to safely access, process, and release the hidden physical tension, fear, and years of stuck emotional material driving your anxiety. Together, we will calm your nervous system so you can step out of chronic overwhelm and into an authentic, intentional, and aligned way of living.

Perfectionism
Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, Associate Certified Coach, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider MSW, RSW, ACC, ADHD-CCSP
I often assist clients with navigating and recovering from perfectionism. As a recovering perfectionist myself, I understand what you may be going through. Though I will tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, I often use Internal Family Systems Therapy. This approach can help you understand, and eventually befriend, your inner critic or perfectionist. My goal is to create more inner harmony between your perfectionist part and other parts of you that can help balance out your perfectionistic tendencies. Based in Toronto, I provide virtual counselling to clients across Ontario and coaching to clients across Canada. I've been in practice since 2015. Reach out anytime to learn more or schedule a free consultation. I'd love to hear from you!

Perfectionism
Jaswir Dhillon
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
Perfectionism can feel like a constant pressure to get everything right, leaving little room for rest, ease, or self-compassion. You may find yourself stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-criticism, or never feeling quite enough, no matter how much you achieve. Over time, this can become exhausting and disconnect you from what actually matters to you. I offer a steady and supportive space where you can loosen the grip of perfectionism, understand where it comes from, and begin to relate to yourself with more kindness and flexibility. You do not have to keep holding it all alone.

Perfectionism
Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Perfectionism looks like high standards from the outside, but inside it's a harsh inner critic that moves the goalposts every time you get close. The procrastination, the burnout, the sense that nothing you do is ever quite enough: it's a heavy way to live. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand where that critical voice came from, what it's been trying to protect, and how to soften it. The goal isn't to lower your standards, it's to genuinely understand yourself, replace self-criticism with habits that actually nourish you, and discover that you're allowed to be human. Together we'll work toward feeling more at ease, more self-accepting, and more equipped to pursue what matters without punishing yourself along the way.

Perfectionism
of Salt & Sky Therapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Perfectionism can look like having everything together while privately feeling as though nothing you do is ever quite enough. You may overthink decisions, fear disappointing people, struggle to rest without guilt, or hold yourself to standards you would never expect of anyone else. Therapy can help you understand where those expectations came from and begin building a life that isn’t measured entirely by how well you perform.

Michael Chu

Perfectionism comes in many forms and often at a cost. But oftentimes, it's because we're afraid of what happens when we're not perfect. I will work with you to understand yourself, face your desire to be perfect and the emotions underneath, and together, we can work on overcoming the need to be perfect.

I support individuals who struggle with perfectionism. Are you someone who feels constant pressure to get everything right, fear making mistakes, or never feel “good enough"? While perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside, it often comes with stress, self-criticism, and exhaustion.
In our work together, we gently explore the patterns behind perfectionism and help you build more self-compassion, flexibility, and balance.

Perfectionism
Gal Zohar
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed.
Perfectionism often goes far beyond wanting things done well. It can stem from fear of failure, self-criticism, people-pleasing, or feeling like your worth is tied to achievement. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, burnout, shame, and difficulty feeling “good enough,” no matter how much you accomplish. Together, we’ll explore the underlying patterns and pressures driving perfectionism, build self-compassion, and work toward a healthier, more sustainable relationship with yourself.

Perfectionism
Julie Cochrane - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist, CCP
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Perfectionism is not really about high standards. It is about safety. Somewhere along the way, the subconscious decided that being good enough, being beyond criticism or being in complete control was the way to be safe and accepted. That decision then becomes a daily tax: overworking, second-guessing, never quite arriving. RTT goes back to the moment that decision was made and updates the meaning underneath it. The standards can stay. What changes is the price you pay to meet them. Most of my perfectionist clients are women in leadership, founders or creatives. The work is online via Zoom and confidential.
