Perfectionism
Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Perfectionism is rarely about getting everything right. It is often a survival pattern that develops when you've learned that mistakes are unsafe, success earns acceptance, or your value depends on what you accomplish. While perfectionism may have helped you achieve, it can also leave you feeling anxious, exhausted, and disconnected from yourself.
Together, we'll uncover the patterns beneath perfectionism, quiet your inner critic, strengthen self-trust, and help you embrace progress over perfection. My goal is to help you pursue excellence from a place of confidence and authenticity rather than fear and self-protection.

Perfectionism
Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I’m highly experienced in working with perfectionism and the ways it can quietly take over. Together we explore what is underneath it—often fear, pressure, or a sense that you have to get things “just right” to be okay. This work isn’t about lowering your goals, but about softening the pressure and rigidity that can make life feel exhausting.

Perfectionism
Kyle Loney
Counsellor/Therapist, MC, RCC, CCC, LCT-C
While Perfectionism might seem helpful from the outside, it can come at the cost of feeling inadequate, like we're too much, not enough, broken, worthless, or doomed to never achieve our potential. I work with clients to help them work with their perfectionistic and critical parts, to help them find a balance in their ideal life, and to deal with the potential guilt and shame that result. Moving away from Perfectionism is not about committing to being imperfect, it is about helping yourself to feel satisfied with your best, while continuing to learn and grow.

Perfectionism
Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
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
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards; it is often a protective part of the system trying to prevent criticism, rejection, or a sense of failure. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you understand the 'internal critic' that keeps you in a cycle of relentless striving and exhaustion.
We move beyond 'letting go' to exploring the early survival strategies that made being perfect feel like a necessity. By healing the underlying vulnerabilities that this part is trying to shield, we work to replace the weight of perfectionism with a grounded sense of self-worth and the freedom to be authentically yourself—without the constant pressure of 'never being enough.

Abbotsford is a Fraser Valley city bordering Washington state with a character shaped by its strong Mennonite and evangelical Christian heritage, a large Punjabi Sikh community that has made it home to one of Canada's most prominent South Asian populations outside the Vancouver core, and a rapidly growing suburban economy that has attracted families priced out of Metro Vancouver. University of the Fraser Valley offers psychology and counselling programs that contribute to the local mental health workforce, and Fraser Health provides public mental health services to the region. Mental health stigma has historically been significant in some of Abbotsford's religious and cultural communities, and faith-integrated therapy and culturally competent care—particularly for South Asian clients—are important considerations in the local landscape. Common therapy concerns include intergenerational family conflict, cultural identity, anxiety, economic stress, and the adjustment challenges of a community navigating the tension between traditional roots and rapid modern growth.
