Rebekah Wright
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Perfectionism often develops in high-performing individuals and can be both a strength and a source of distress. While it may drive achievement, it can also lead to burnout, isolation, and strain in relationships.

Steph Paolucci
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, Registered Yoga Teacher
People often seek therapy for perfectionism when the pressure to get everything “right” starts to feel exhausting, overwhelming, or never-ending. It can show up as harsh self-criticism, fear of making mistakes, procrastination, or feeling like nothing is ever good enough. Over time, this pattern can impact relationships, work, and overall well-being, leaving people feeling stuck and disconnected from a sense of ease or satisfaction.

Michelle Labine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Counselling Therapist, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
Perfectionism is often driven by a desire to avoid mistakes, criticism, failure, or disappointing others. While it can lead to achievement and success, it can also create anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, procrastination, and a relentless inner critic that never feels satisfied. Together, we can explore the roots of perfectionism, develop greater self-compassion, challenge unrealistic expectations, and create a healthier, more sustainable relationship with yourself and your goals.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Perfectionism is often about far more than having high standards. It can be deeply connected to trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, self-worth, fear of failure, people-pleasing, or the painful belief that mistakes somehow make you less worthy.
For many people, perfectionism is not really about excellence — it is about protection. Protection from shame, criticism, rejection, or feeling like you are not enough.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you understand what perfectionism may actually be trying to protect you from. Together, we work to reduce shame, challenge exhausting patterns, build self-trust, and create more flexible, realistic ways of living that do not require you to constantly prove your worth.

Mary D'Agostino
Registered Psychotherapist, RP(Qualifying)
Perfectionism often goes far beyond simply wanting to do well. It can involve intense self-pressure, fear of failure, overthinking, difficulty relaxing, people-pleasing, and feeling like your worth is tied to performance or productivity. Perfectionism is not about being perfect — it is about constantly striving for a level of perfection that is ultimately unattainable for anyone, and the emotional exhaustion that comes from endlessly trying to reach it. In therapy, we work to better understand where these patterns come from, what continues to drive them, and how they may be impacting your relationships, self-esteem, and overall well-being. Together, we focus on building greater self-awareness, flexibility, self-compassion, and healthier ways of relating to yourself and others.

Therapy focuses on understanding the roots of perfectionistic thinking and learning ways to shift rigid expectations. By developing self-compassion and flexible thinking patterns, individuals can maintain high standards while reducing the pressure that leads to burnout.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Are you someone who has a hard time coping when you cannot meet your expectations for yourself? Perhaps you are so consumed by these expectations that you shut down and are unable to try at all. Perfectionism is not just about wanting to do things perfectly. It is an expression of rigid standards for ourselves that can lead to intense emotional suffering, avoidance and procrastination, unstable self-worth and constant overthinking. I use a blend of self-compassion strategies, narrative therapy and emotion regulation techniques to help you break out of shame spiralling and learn how to build more flexibility in your thinking.

Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Perfectionism can feel like an endless treadmill—a constant pressure to do more, be more, and never make a mistake. While it might look like high achievement from the outside, on the inside, it often feels like exhaustion, chronic self-doubt, and a fear that if you slow down, the "truth" of your inadequacy will be revealed. In our work, we look beyond the surface of your to-do list to unpack the profound impact perfectionism has had on your mental health and self-worth.
I use a deeply compassionate and relational approach to help you understand the roots of this pressure. We can incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to target and process the traumas or early life experiences where you first learned that your value was tied to your performance. By weaving in IFS and psychodynamic insights, we’ll work to soften the voice of the inner critic and unburden the parts of you that feel "not enough." My goal is to help you trade the crushing weight of perfection for a life of genuine self-compassion, where you are free to be human, messy, and whole.
